To keep the discussion alive so I don't have to buy the PC, test it, then return it. I'm hoping someone has had experience with this configuration, but thanks rickhtoo I appreciate the response. I just don't want to shell out the money for a Test Drive.

My mistake, I thought you already had that system. Keep in mind it's not only the Graphics card that matters. If you supply the full list of components in those PC's you might get a more accurate response. CPU, will help. I personally am not familiar with that system.

That's a notebook GPU. Better check with official nvidia support first. I have been on this forum a while and haven't heard of anyone using a notebook for 3D Vision. Technically it should work all the same, but best to check.

Yes, but it's for this system [url="http://www.voodoopc.com/#/productsfirebird"]http://www.voodoopc.com/#/productsfirebird[/url] which is not a laptop, but uses a custom Nvdia card based off of the M family to fit in the slim line case. The big issue for laptops from what I have read is the lack of a dual link DVI output and of course they don't match the minimum requirements for the screen refresh rate and the GPU for laptops are not listed nor is the card in this topic, but I was hoping for an official "No". Oh, and we also have no Andrew anymore.

I would email VoodooPC if I were you and see what they say. Its does say that is supports future gpu's from nvidia and ati. If the cards in that system do not support dual DVI, it's possible they my have an upgrade that can. Other than that it appears to be well suited.

Thanks Rick, it does have dual dvi and so that's what started giving me hope that it just might. I did not hear about 3D Vision being supported in future cards etc. So that gives me more hope. I actually do have the 3D Vision system on my computer right now and it works really good. So I'd feel like a Tool if I bought a new computer and my 3D Vision Kit no longer worked.
