GTZ 260 w/iz3d monitor.. any suggestions?

Post by StereoGaming4Me »

I just upgraded from a 7950 gt to a gtx 260 896 mb, I use the iz3d as a normal monitor and a HD display for the ps3.. after installing the new gtx 260, what direction is my best bet for obtaining s3d.. the iz3d drivers, nvidia 3D exp drivers, or the *old* stereo control panel which I'm not sure how to get back since I just installed nvidia 182.50. Can I install the *old* 93.71 stereo driver along with 182.50 or am I asking for BSOD in advance?

I'd rather not buy a 120hz lcd when I have a trusty 20" crt hanging about for s3d.. any recommendations? Is this gtx 260 card good for dlp hdtv's? if it is I may buy the iz3d nvidia license since I'm not a favored ati user and have a 3D samsung 50" hdtv I never use.

Thanks.

I assume you mean old school stereodriver 162.50 and below. Unfortunately these don't work with newer cards than the 7000-series.
Newer stereodrivers (vista only) from nvidia supports newer cards but only the zalman monitor and 3d-vision glasses+3dvision compatible monitors. Oh yes, anaglyph also.

If you plan to run different stereodrivers on one and the same computer it's quite possible. Just deactivate the driver you for the moment don't use.

The gtx260 is a decent card for the money. It should do for most games even in stereo. Some settings may have to be turned down on demanding games though.
