News spotted at Hardware.fr french forums.

ATi confirms that in it`s future driver improvements it will provide support for sync with 120Hz 3D displays.
This will still require 3rd party software like the iZ3D driver and 3rd party USB emitters and glasses such as those provided by [url=http://www.bitcauldron.com/products.html:34gw4t1n]BitCauldron[/url:34gw4t1n].
