New 2016 Acer Predator XB1
I want to upgrade my old Acer HN274H for a higher resolution and screen size 3d Vision compliant monitor. Looking at the specs of the new Predator IPS screens, they have a much higher refresh rate than old IPS, namely 144Hz, and 4 ms. Here're the general XB1 series specs: http://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/predator-xb1-series And more specifically, I am interested in the 32" version: http://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/predator-model/UM.JX1AA.001 Will this monitor work with 3D Vision considering the refresh rate exceeds the 120Hz required? Will an EDID hack work?

"Just in case you have any ideas of ditching the stand and using a standard VESA mount, here, we're gonna slap a Predator slogan and claw marks on the bottom bezel." It actually looks like a fairly respectable monitor aside from that.

Another 1080p TN monitor.... Computex is in a few days. Hoping for some 3840x2160@120Hz G-Sync monitor with 3D Vision 2 compatibility. Or at least 3440x1440 at high refresh rates with 3D. I have just bought a monitor two weeks ago, but the sooner technology advances the better. Please, monitor manufacturers, don't kill 3D Vision 2 :(.
