Im from chile, so i took the risk and buy this 3d glasses from nvidia and they sent it to a email box in miami. The first day was awesome it works flawless, a little problem with drivers but easily fixed, but about 2 weeks from that day, the lens dont charge the battery, the led goes red to green… and the green fade away after 5-10 secs, i read about it in forums it appears to be a battery issue, but good lord why me that im in the other part of the world (chile), i guess im stuck with a [...] bucks glasses that doesnt work. First time i bought something on internet, and the last i think, warranty its and issue here.
I dont recomend it.

With the current offering fom nVidia where you buy a 3D monitor and GTX VidCard and you get these 3D Glasses kit for FREE…HELL YES! I jumped on that band wagon and got the EVGA GTX275 896mb for the FREE 3D Glasses Bundle Deal!!! I’m already runnin’ 2x BFG 512mb 9800GT OCX Series in SLi Mode…so I basically got the GTX275 for free in my mind
– which I will use on next PC build during tax season 
The SLi 9800GT’s run the 3D flawless on all my games I have attempted at the 120hz 1680×1050 – Fallout3, World in Conflict, UT3, Monkey Island – Launch Screaming Narwhal, Wolfenstein (2009), NFS Series, Age of Mythology!!!! I run Vista32 on an ASUS A8N32-SLi Deluxe, AMD 4600X2 2.4ghz (OC’d 2.62ghz), 4gb Corsair XMS3200 DDR400 and have no problems playing any of these games!!!
This has made my gaming way more real!!! It’s like your lookin out a window into whatever First Person Shooter you are playing and the rockets are flyin right at for REAL!!!! Other games like Age of Mythlogy are like you are in an aircraft lookin down on these people and fireballs are about to hit ya!! The depth perception has actually probly helped me on FPS games…you can see the missiles coming and dodge them easier!!! Just general gameplay on almost everygame is INTENSE!!! Racing Games ARE a simulation now!!!
The darker the game though…the harder to see in general!!! But overall U NEED THIS!!!!

I’ll try to be brief, as to not simply reiterate too much of the other reviewers.
1) These nVidia glasses work very well, and the glasses have wider field of view than the eDimensions 3D glasses (which I bought 2 years ago). The 3D effect is fully adjustable in the two key dimensions: separation (amount of 3D effect) and convergence (how far away the objects appear). Having a 60 Hz refresh rate for each eye is critical; my eDimension glasses with an older 60 Hz LCD monitor could only give 30 Hz per eye and lots of flicker. I haven’t tried the eDimension with the new 120 Hz monitor.
2) My computer set up is not excessive, but not wimpy either: AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ 3.0GHz; nVidia 8800GTS; 2 Gb DDR2-800 RAM; ViewSonic VX2265wm 120Hz LCD monitor; Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit. This is about the bare minimum set up for good 3D.
3) Make sure you uninstall your current GeForce drivers before loading the new GeForce + 3D Vision drivers (collectively downloadable as the “Full Driver CD” from nVidia’s website). I had mismatched drivers at first (from Windows 7), and got excessive ghosting and got the right-eye signal going to the left eye. Reinstalling with fresh drivers from nVidia solved the problem. Now I have no ghosting, no flicker, great 3D effect.
4) I’ve only tested one game so far, World of Warcraft, which looks beautiful. There’s a setting in WoW to allow the cursor to adjust its depth to match the interacting object – nice! Takes 15-30 minutes to get used to, but then it’s fantastic. Setting the convergence (or “screen depth”) to a low value makes the objects appear far away and is easier on the eyes.
5) Caveats: (a) you need Windows Vista or 7; XP will not work. (b) There are only two LCD monitors at the moment that offer true 120 Hz refresh rates: ViewSonic VX2265wm FuHzion 3D/120Hz LCD Display (Black) and Samsung Syncmaster 2233RZ 22″ 3D Gaming LCD Monito; many LCD TVs claim 120 Hz, but this is upscaled, and none currently take 120 Hz input; some DLP TVs will work – check nVidia’s website.

I have used the 3D vision kit for about 2 months now and have found it be a great enhancement to my PC gaming. I find myself buying the PC version of multi-platform games now just so I can experience them in 3D. Consider that my 3D vision kit is on a 22 LCD monitor, while my console gaming is done on a 10′ wide projection screen system. Yes, 3D is that impressive. The cost of entry is not cheap, but if you can afford it, then I think that is well worth the cost. The one caveat though is that the 3D game mode will cut your framerate by about 40%, so you will want to have a fairly strong computer to play some games at full quality.
