What's geekier than sitting in front of a 3D monitor while wearing stereoscopic glasses? Sitting in front of three identical 3D monitors while while wearing stereoscopic glasses, of course. NVIDIA hopes to bring out that geek in all of us with its latest beta driver, which is the first to enable 3D Vision Surround—the company's name for multi-monitor stereoscopic 3D.
Enjoying stereoscopic 3D on three displays takes much more than a beta driver, of course. First, you'll need three 3D Vision-ready displays or projectors of the "same exact make and model"—a necessary evil to avoid synchronization issues and the like. Compatible 22", 1680x1050 displays like ViewSonic's FuHzion VX2265wm have been available for a little while, and Alienware also offers a 23" 1080p model for $450. NVIDIA tells us additional 1080p monitors from ASUS and LG will be out later this summer. The mandatory 120Hz refresh rate pretty much guarantees those displays all have TN panels, but word is that the upcoming 1080p offerings look pretty darned good, all things considered. We'll have to see for ourselves.
You can find the new drivers (Vista/Win 7 32/64bit) HERE. (Hosted by NVIDIA - 93.8 MB - 121 MB
