Quick question about 3d vision

Hi all, I was wondering when a gfx card says that it includes NVIDIA® 3D Vision, does this mean that you just need a 120hz 3D monitor to get 3D or do you still need the NVIDIA 3D Vision Kit ?
And what setup equals the best value for the money?
 
For 3D vision you will need a Nvidia video card (preferably a fast one or two!), a 120Hz 3D vision ready monitor (be carefull as not all 120Hz screens are 3D vision ready, for example the new Samsung 750D/950D monitors will not work) and the 3D vision kit which obviously includes the 3D glasses.
 
Thanks coupe69, the 3D is an expensive hobby :) but is it worth it?

I've just sold my 3D vision kit along with a 23.6" 120Hz Acer monitor and replaced it with a 27" 60Hz Dell ;)

Whilst the 3D effect can indeed be awesome in a lot of games it did end up making me feel a little nauseous after an hour or so of gaming, especially in first person shooters. My recommendation would be try before you buy just to be sure you get on with it.
