New System Build - Opinions Please
Posted: Sat May 12, 2012 4:48 pm
Hi all, firstly great community site and just what I've been looking for since I decided to upgrade to a 3d system, here is my dilemma/question.
I will be purchasing a full upgrade for my PC in about a week and would like input on the graphics card to purchase. The system I'll be building is as follows
FX-4100 CPU
Asrock 990FX Extreme 3 M/Board
8gb RAM
Xonar DG Sound Card
Samsung S23A700D 23" 3d Ready Monitor
ATI HD 7850 2Gb or Geforce GTX 560 ti 1Gb
My problem is, the monitor comes with tridef (DDD) software included and the recommended graphics route is ATI. However this would lock me out completely if I wanted to use 3D Vision in the future so I could pick up the geforce card instead. What are peoples views on this, is side by side viewing (60hz) that different compared to full HD (120hz) and can I get 3D Vision working through a "crack" without buying more equipment (mixed responses from googling the question)? Can't stretch my budget any further (not a bad £600 build) than I already have so the monitor is already decided and all down to the graphics card.
