How can I play standard PC games in 3D?

Will the blu-ray player in my pc play 3d blu ray movies with the right software?

  • I have a blue-ray player in the PC I built and nvidia gt 560 ti ko with nvidia 3d tv. My 42" vizio passive 3d tv will be here tomorrow. I should be able to play all my 3d games on it, which is what I mainly bought it for, but will i be able to play 3d blu-ray disks using my blu-ray player and the right software, PowerDVD 11 3D maybe? Or will I have to go buy one for $100+ to watch 3d blu-rays?

  • Answer:

    Your TV may not support Nvidia 3D Vision, I don't see it in the list of compatible displays here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-requirements.html . Your TV may only support 3D Blu-rays when they are played on a 3D HDMI connected Blu-ray player. You can read a good explanation about the different 3D display technologies and compatibility of formats here: http://www.projectorcentral.com/what_does_3d_ready_mean.htm .

3D blu-rays require a much higher framerate than most video cards are capable of supporting. That's why 3DTVs usually have refresh rates like 120hz or 240hz. A video card meanwhile, normally does 60hz. That's not going to be fast enough. Honestly, just go buy a 3D blu-ray player. They aren't that expensive and are a lot easier to deal with than having to upgrade your PC.

Keep in mind that to watch 3D you will need the following. 3D tv, 3D blu ray disc player, 3D blu ray disc movies and 3D glasses. At this time there are only about 40 title in 3D and they are mainly animated movies. You can not convert a 2D to 3D. PC are not ideal for this purpose as of now. Hope this will help you out.
