I'm asking because the ASUS-boards and drivers support interlace mode and presumably full-res-hardware-page-flipping. Question is: did ASUS change the hardware to allow this or is the NVidia chipset/reference board design capable of this. If a 3rd party board would work with the ASUS-stereo-driver this would prove that interlace/hardware-flipping is possible with the NVidia reference design and would work on all NVidia boards. According to http://www.win3d.com/ilaclist.htm the newer chips (from TNT on) don't support interlace, but ASUS does this - how? Thank you Christoph |

Asus has added some hardware for the 3D Glasses on the Deluxe cards. When you have a Pure version you can add a tiny printed cirquit later on to which you can connect the glasses. |

Thanks Nisei, but I'm interested in the question if other NVidia boards are capable of interlace and hardware-page-flipping as the ASUS boards. Usually this is determined by the gfx-chipsets. It may be different in the NVidia design. Maybe ASUS altered the board design in order to allow interlace and hw-pf with a special RAM-DAC or something. That's what I'd like to know. The glasses-controller has no role in the flipping, so it doesn't matter. Christoph |
