What 3D projector for gaming and blu-ray?
Posted: Sat Aug 14, 2010 3:14 pm
Hi all.
Within the next few months, I want to buy a 3d projector to replace my aged Dell 3300mp. I have a few basic requirements I would like to have met.
1. 720p (since 1080p is currently out of the question for a 3d projector).
2. Capable of 3d gaming.
3. Capable of playing 3d blu-rays, preferably via a PC with a blu-ray drive.
4. Doesn't require me to get in bed with Nvidia. Oops. That just made it a lot harder.
5. Dramatically less crosstalk than the iZ3D 22'' LCD. (heh, heh, boy was that thing a disappointment)
6. Average or better contrast.
Also, I don't want the hassle of a dual projector system or DIY hardware adapters.
What are my options? I know Bit Cauldron is supposedly working on some new amazing shutter glasses compatible w/the iZ3D driver, so that might be an option too if it doesn't take too much longer.
EDIT:
My system specs might be helpful. A solution that would work with both machines would be wonderful btw:
Primary system:
Windows 7 Pro x64
i7 860
8gb ram
Radeon 5870 (2x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1x Displayport)
Secondary system:
Windows 7 Pro x64
Core 2 Duo - 2.4ghz
3gb ram
Nvidia 8800gtx (2x DVI, 1x Component video)
