Check out MSI G2Ti PRO-VTG (MS-8836) GEFORCE2 TI at www.msicomputer.com

You can also check out some pictures at http://www.newegg.com/app/Showimage.asp?image=14-127-016-01.JPG/14-127-016-02.JPG/14-127-016-03.JPG/14-127-016-04.JPG

Anyone tried these?

Also what is different in the daughterboard ELSA and MSI provide to connect the glasses v/s the breakout boxes eye3d and H3D Universal have? Is one faster than the other?

Is Eye3d the best glasses I can get? Is Premium Wired the one you recommend? http://www.demensional.com/eye3d_premium.htm

Are the nVidia drivers the best to use with the above glases?

Look similar to the Eye3D wired, except that MSI uses standard VGA connectors for both in and out on the backplane, which would mean that it would be 3-in-one (sync-doubling, page-flip/interlace, NO line-blanking. This would make the MSI glasses inferior to the Eye3D Premium resp. Eye3D 4-in-1, but should be sufficient for playing games with the NVidia stereo driver; though having no manual control means stereo mode has to be activated by line codes in the VGA signal (H3D or Eye3D Activator, IIRC), which may cause problems - any experience, anyone ?
Note that ELSA doesn't have a daughterboard, just a splitter cable for the VGA output, with (mis-)use of some signals on the VGA port and the well-known problems.
Otherwise, there is no fundamental difference between daughterboard and breakout boxes. Both have basically the same circuit, which reads the VGA sync signals and provides the shutter control signals, as well as sync-doubled resp. line-blanked (as far as applicable) output to the monitor.
Daugtherboards block a backplane slot and usually have no manual controls, but can get power from an internal FDD power connector.
Breakout boxes usually provide some manual control (about 3D-mode and L/R swap), and need some external power supply (wall plug, USB or keyboard dongle).

Looks very similar to the ASUS upgrade kit. My guess is it's for page-flipping/interlace only and reacts to the ASUS and/or Revelator trigger mechanism. The driver should be derived from the nVidia reference driver or ASUS driver (just speculation).
