When will Nvidia release their 3D Vision Surround for the GeForce GTX 400 series of graphics cards? According to a post on the Nvidia nTersect blog, they are planning to release the new drivers at the end of June. At that point in time, will provide a list of games that support it, as well as guidance on how to get the best results using 3D Vision Surround. Personally, I am very curious to see how it will turn out. I can think of several things that might ruin the experience (much like the bezels do with ATI’s Eyefinity6). But I remain hopeful.
The fact is we are not ready yet – the surround driver needs some final improvements. When we first showed this technology live at CES in January, we expected this to become available with the first release of our 256 branch driver which was then targeted for April. Our new target for 3D Vision Surround is the end of June in a follow-on release of this 256 driver branch. Our first 256 based driver is planned to post to nvidia.com on May 24th and will enable new SLI setup controls and improve performance on several key applications for GTX 400 GPUs.
