Asus G55VW 3D Vision Ready???

[jewie27]

A friend of mine just got an Asus G55VW from Newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834230404

As we understand, the G55 is 3D Vision ready out of the box... Is the laptop screen 120Hz? We can't find any refresh options above 60Hz. Is there a built in Nvidia 3D Vision emitter? I know it doesn't come with glasses but he already has a pair of original Nvidia 3D Vision glasses.

Using the latest Nvidia Geforce Drivers.

Yes

Is the laptop screen 120Hz?

No

We can't find any refresh options above 60Hz. Is there a built in Nvidia 3D Vision emitter?

No

The laptop is capable of outputting a 3D signal over VGA or HDMI using a USB emitter. That is what 3D Vision Ready means. If the laptop had an emitter, it would next to the webcam with a little stylized 3D logo.

So it's not 3D Vision ready.

Very sorry for the misunderstanding. The graphics card is ready to output should you plug in a 120Hz display such as the VG278H, or 3D HDTV. All G55s that are 3D Vision enabled come with 3D vision glasses in the box.

Actually I can't find where it states 3D Vision ready on the page you provided. The details section only states the resolution.

On the G53SX, it kind of implies it on a sticker on the palm rest. "nvidia 3DTV PLAY". Maybe yes, maybe no.
