NVIDIA 3D Vision Surround [Jun 29, 2010, 09:49 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
NVIDIA unveils 3D Vision Surround, a competitor to ATI's Eyefinity multi-monitor dealie offering a combination of multi-monitor support and 3d stereoscopic technology. The system supports three monitors in 3D using a multi-GPU setup and NVIDIA says they have software to automatically convert over 425 games to stereoscopic 3D without the need for special game patches. The system requires Windows 7 and an SLI motherboard (unless you are using a GTX 295 GPU), the full System Requirements are here. There are preview write-ups of how this all comes together on AnandTech, ExtremeTech, [H]ard-OCP, Hardware Canucks, PC Perspective, and Tom's Hardware.

To be honest, I'm still not figuring out what the hell all the hype is with 3d again. We did this 10 and 18ish odd years ago. And before that too, and it thrives for about a year then dies. I'll be happy when they figure out a 3d method that doesn't induce violent fits of vomiting.
I agree. This is technology from decades ago, 1950s?, re-giftwrapped and re-marketed. Same craptastic results too.
