Why would you ever spend 1700$ on graphics equipment ever, let alone after not doing any research, and then dis a manufacturer for a feature everyone knows Nvidia does way better. Ive been burned by Asus several times in my past, that doesn't mean they don't make great boards now.

I'm not moving from 3d vision anytime soon, it works, it's well proven and tested and has hundreds of games properly working right now, and it has half decent support, besides nvidia still has phsyx to give more value to their cards. However I'm glad ATI is offering a 3d solution:
1) nvidia will have to be more responsive and active in their support for their 3d solution to remain competitive.
2) the ATI entry will mean more supported s3d games for nvidia too, now that developers can invest resources in a technology that all of their potential customers can use, making 3d gaming going mainstream.

I understand being against posting about a rival's technology but this is the elephant in the room. I like Nvidia's 3D so far so I see no reason to switch. competition is good, but from what I've read ATI's 3D is run by other companies so who knows how that will turn out. I think it will be good for game developers to focus more on making their games 3D ready.

All good points, I just enjoy the idea of another company doing this since it means that nvidia will have to stay on top of lose out on people buying their products, no more "where else you going to go?" when stuff doesn't work. Competition is healthy.
I also like that the ATI cards can do 4 tv's at once, which if you have the money(which i do) Then it seems like a really fun thing to do. All in all i prefer nvidia still I just wanted to see other people's ideas and whatnot on the whole thing and see if it would be worth it from people who are already deep into the 3d now.

And if any of you have a couple seconds to visit AMD's site to read about "AMD 3D" you will see a long list of supported 3D monitors of... THREE. 3D gaming? freaking joke. They are just telling you that you can use an AMD graphic card with monitors with their own 3D system. They even tell you that you will have to use OTHERS drivers to use 3D, as iz3d drivers. AMD offers software support for Blu-ray 3D. That's it. If you want REAL 3D gaming the solution is Nvidia and their 3D Vision.
The comment on what's the most powerful graphic card could be put on debate. If you want a graphic card with better higher frames but going down 30fps 5x times compared with its omonime in Nvidia, then go for AMD. I want a FAST and SOLID graphic card, so I will stick with Nvidia.

1) nvidia will have to be more responsive and active in their support for their 3d solution to remain competitive.
2) the ATI entry will mean more supported s3d games for nvidia too, now that developers can invest resources in a technology that all of their potential customers can use, making 3d gaming going mainstream.
Good times for s3d gaming ahead of us :)
