I am looking into getting a 3dtv in the future for PC gaming but have a couple of questions

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Ok a buddy of mine brought over the Ben Q XL2420TX and i was completely floored by 3d gaming (never seen it before). I am looking to getting a TV in the future because I game on my TV for PC. I don't know if TV's have DVI on the back of them but i checked and didn't see any. The reason I mention this is because I noticed that 120 hz was only capable through DVI and not HDMI. So basically my question is, will i be able to get full 3d gaming on a TV. I am basically looking to get 1080p at 120 hz. The only thing i see on tv's is something called db15 pc video. Or is there some kind of HDMI cable that can do 120hz. I currently run sli 570's so there is no mini dp. Thanks in advance.

ok so i decided to dig around and what i found is that 3d gaming on a TV isn't possible at 120 hz (least i think that is what i found out) So basically my only option is a monitor right now? Or is something coming out in the future that i should just wait for.
