Geforce 3D Vision, 100htz LCD display
I have a 24 inch Acer x243w monitor capable of doing 100htz in every resolution including 1920x1200. Will the software force me to use 120htz? or is their options to calibrate the software to use something reasonable like 100htz and play my games in 3d at 25 fps. The minimum requirement applet says that my monitor does not pass the minimum requirements, although it should be fully capable of running games at 25 fps using 100htz. Does anyone know if this is possible.

Thanks

Hi.
Your monitor is not capable to produce 3D image, nor 100hz refresh rate.

I think the main problem is your monitor has to accept dual DVI. The 120 hz displays come with a special dual DVI cable that's required for 3D.

My monitor can run at 100htz, as it has a very low refresh time. Just because its not in the specs doesn't mean its not possible.

So the technology that they use for LCDs is different than page flipping then? Otherwise (if the software allows me), it seems that I would be able to use page flipping to achieve at least 25 fps. I assume the software is not capable of doing this? Is that correct? Don't really want to go installing Vista on a new partition just so I can find out the software doesn't do what I need it to.

"refresh time" A.K.A response time or grey-to-grey which is measured in milliseconds, is not same issue as monitor's refresh rate which is measured in herzes.
