NVIDIA Support for Stereo LCD Displays

A few months ago, Omid Rahmat gave us the rundown on DTI's stereoscopic 3D LCD displays . Up until the company released a reasonably priced consumer model in January of this year, such high-falootin' gadgets were limited to those with unlimited financial resources, like the military (home of the $500 toilet seat). While playing 3D games without wearing cumbersome goggles sounds like a kick, not a lot of graphics card vendors support these monitors. nVidia just let us know that they want to give you the option of using these displays by offering a 3D Stereo driver that can be used in conjunction with its nVidia Detonator 3 Software and any card in the whole family of TNT, GeForce, and Quadro-based graphics cards. nVidia says that even games that were not originally developed for 3D play can now be seen in real-depth 3D because they are automatically converted from mono to stereo by the software. You can still use the software without the monitor, but you'll be stuck wearing funky headgear. If you've got one of the aforementioned graphics cards, you can download the software here .
