Need help with my Asus VG278H!
  2 / 2    
Perhaps it has something to due with the laptop output being Thunderbolt? You didn't say if it was.... Although the product page does say that your adapater is single link DVI, perhaps Thunderbolt passes the required bandwidth? I've done 1920x1080@96Hz via HDMI using a pixel clock patch. When you do the setup wizard, wear the glasses upside down and select the images. Does it complete now? Unfortunately Nvidia does not have a sync signal invert function, so you'll be stuck wearing them upside down if it works. Although if you are getting flickering at 120Hz when setting a custom resolution, it seems to me thsat an active adapter is needed.

Hi guys, I wana do some video editing. Ive recently bought a 3D camcorder and am planning to create 3D videos. I am thinking of buying the Asus Vg278H and Ive already bought the nvidia 3d vision 2 glass. My question is: If i edit videos using the active glasses? Will this video be viewable on a passive 3d tv??? Please guide me! Thanks!

I tried the trick of wearing the glasses upside down. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I appreciate your suggestion though. I contacted Asus yesterday about the issue. They said it could be a monitor issue. They are going to either fix it or replace it. I've heard about early model VG278H's having some defective problems. Maybe the inconsistency is a result of that.

I have a VG278H and a laptop using mini-displayport (which it says is lightning bolt equipped), and no matter what I couldn't get the 3D to work even with an active adapter from monoprice.com. I posted about it on the forums [url=https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/639544/3d-vision-2-output-problems-vg278h-monitor-with-geforce-gtx-770m-laptop-and-active-mini-dp-to-dual-/]here[/url] and eventually I got it to work with the active adapter from Accell; the [url=http://www.accellcables.com/B087B-007B.html]B087B-007B[/url] adapter. It works in 3D and 120Hz 2D for most games, although some games like 'Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition' (3D mode) and 'Battlefield 2' (120Hz 2D) make the adapter flip out and send a noisy signal to the monitor. I have to reset the adapter by changing the refresh rate to something like 100Hz and then switch it back to 120Hz to make the signal noise go away, but relaunching those games make the adapter break again.
