Can you buy a 3D monitor or does your PC have to be 3D ready like a 3D graphics card or something?

I have a windforce 7970 at the moment.

Yes your PC needs to be 3D ready with a 3D graphics card

Also important is that AMD use passive monitors and Nvidia use Active monitors, so you need to have the right one

Will I need any new software to play 3D or does the monitor do all the work?

I think my heart is set on that 23" to go with my other 23's but I will wait till the price budges.

the only software you will need is your amd gfx drivers and im guessing the drivers that come with the monitor and you also get the 3d glasses included

The monitor is awesome (700D), I have 2 of them and waiting to get a third

.

3D is overrated though, but they're worth it for the clarity of picture and 120hz!

But it is somehow £100 more than a few months ago, I can not justify in my mind paying over the odds.
