| disolitude said: IZ3D does give free drivers to anyone with an ATI card but I never tried their drivers cause I dont have a polarized display. I heard its pretty great... You can get 3D working with Tridef drivers on an ATI card quite easily. I had a 4850 a year or so ago and first tried things out with Tridef...you just have to go get the trial off their website, you install it and done. That driver is pretty versitile however it isn't as good with updates as Nvidias so it takes longer to get profiles for new games. Another fault it has is that you need to get the stupid 3rd party glasses (they dont make em and samsung discontinued the DLP ones by the time I bought mine). Honestly, if Tridef or IZ3D came out with an equal or better 3D solution as Nvidia, id gladly recycle all my Nvidia stuff and go over to ATI side :) Nvidia is too used to their customers paying top notch dollar for their product and then having to jump through hoops just to get it working... |
You can't easily buy a polarised display can you? So whilst the technology of present 3D TVs and monitors are relying on shutter glasses it isn't as relevant. However its probably likely that polarised technology will be more compatible with consumer interest given the technology is more practical from an interface perspective when you have cheap 3D glasses vs expensive shutter tech which require batteries and are heavy.
What do you think? Polarised or Shutter for the near term 3-5 year mainstream 3D technology?
Tease.
