will samsung 3dtv (un55c7000) output quad sli gtx 590 framerates in 3d? EX will it propely output crysis 2 in 1080p with these high framerates that gtx 590 quad sli will provide? or games like cod at over 200fps? etc

I mentioned this in another post, your TV is on the list to support 3Dtvplay. Meaning for it to work, you use your Televisions 3D glasses, but you also either have to buy the 3dTV play driver from Nvidia for 40.00 dollars or buy a 3dvision kit.
With your TV , you can only use the TV's glasses.
Heres the supported TV list

You could hook your current pc up , and find out what it looks like to run a game at 120fps, fire up Quake 3, or something not demanding.
To get your exact specific answer, your going to have to find someone doing nvidia 3d on your brand/series of tv.

Samsung un55c7000 gets its 3D signal via HDMI 1.4a, which is limited to 720p/60Hz or 1080p/24Hz.

If you have quad sli gtx 590(s) capable of generating mind numbing fps and if you're interested in 3D, then a nvidia 3D vision ready monitor is the only rational choice because that gets you 1080p at 120Hz.

Wonder what the "PC Input" is? VGA DVI? Wonder what kind of input that would allow...

I checked the manual, it is limited to 60 Hz.

I have a 40unc7000 and I actually have an HTPC connected to it via hdmi. I'm very satisfied with the setup, even including 1080p/24 3D content. On the other hand, I don't have two 590(s) connected in SLI driving it, which would be overkill.

Evidently, the OP has a large budget to work with. If he wants a big 3D monitor, the biggest available currently is the Acer 27" HN274H, which was just released in the U.S.

Also, two 590(s) should be more than enough for "stereovision" 3DVision, so you could hook-up three 24" 3D monitors ($350 a piece at Amazon) for less than the price of a 55unc7000.

Well actually, because youve got "240Hz" TV youll get 120FPS per eye. Its just that 1 frame will be repeated 10 times then go to the next frame and repeat it ten times...your TV is multiplying the frames to get a 240Hz output.

ive played on a 3dtv before with the glasses, and personality it hurt my eyes i couldnt even play good, so we took the glasses off and i started owning at cod again, coincidence? i think not! lol (it was on an xbox 360)

so i wont get real 60fps per eye on my 3dtv
pretty sure 720p/60 is 60fps per eye as each frame is 2 frames so there are 60 frames of L & R

1080P/24 will have 24 frames per eye, since it too packs L&R per frame

at least that's the way I understand the HDMI spec to work

but at 720p its 60 frames per eye correct?

yup it is, shame tho hdmi don't have enough bandwidth to support 1080p @ 60 fps per eye.

btw your quad sli gtx 590 will be wasted if you spend just for 720p games, you better of buy 3 monitor tough

Just to add to the confusion, hdmi 1.4a technically *does* have the bandwidth to do full 1080p@120hz. I'm not clear on why the TV people choose not to support it, but it's at least physically possible (according to the bandwidth supported by the hdmi1.4a spec) for a tv with hdmi 1.4a to get full 3d source the question is: did they program it to "listen" for that signal and process it properly

The answer is apparently, universally, "no". But you can understand why I'm interested anytime someone pops up saying they are doing (or going to do) just that - since it's *possible*, then there is a tiny chance that some manufacturer actually just did it

But I've pretty much given up now... :(

actually the hdmi chips in current devices don't have the bandwidth

sure the cables can and the spec allows it, but until the hdmi chips are fabbed and in devices, no can do

and this is for 1080p/60 (with dual frame packing) not really 1080p/120

Interesting. I guess that's what I meant by the TV not "listening" for the correct signal. I've actually been trying to figure out exactly what part of the TVs are preventing 120hz input->120hz display.

So, as I suspected, all that would need to change is a (presumably) low-cost swap to a new chip and some change to the logic board where it gets the feed from that chip and we could have true 120hz input TVs?

Is there anything else you can tell us about how this works, really specifically? Basically, I'm waiting on "investing" in a $700 "3d" monitor (hn274h) because I strongly suspect that it wouldn't take much for the TV manufacturers to supply TVs with the ability to take 120hz input and display it just like these (overpriced imo) 3d monitors.

Because I don't care about dot-pitch or anything like that, I'd *love* to get a ~40 inch LCD TV with 120hz input (and low input lag!) Seems like the bar really isn't that high for *some* manufacturer to just make a couple low-cost changes to provide this feature.

OK, I am going with 1 GTX 590 EVGA Classified, 1 i7 990z or 2600k Over clocked, 8 or 12GB 1600 Ram, 1 120GB to 160GB SSD, 1 2TB HDD, 1 DL Reader / Writer, 1 BD Reader / Writer, Coolmaster HAF-X, and the best mobo and psu for this setup. Also I want the system to run quite but I dont want water cooling. How should I do this? Cyberpowerpc? Custom Build?

Wouldn't it make more sense to alternate the left/right frames 10 times for that whole 1/12 second interval?
