Suggestion on 1080i 3D card

[cclloyd9785]

does anyone have any good suggestions on a PCI-E card. Must be able to do 1080i through HDMI, 3D video, and windows 7 support. Under 200$. Prefable under 150$.

Hi there,

I would start with these search results on Newegg, and cross-reference ones that look good with this database of Windows 7 hardware compatibility. Let us know what you find!

That compatibility page is useless. I have hardware in 2 computers, that arent listed there but have windows 7 x64 drivers.

And how can i tell if they can play 3D movies?

Any card can play 3D movies, except Intel integrated graphics have poor quality. ATI's integrated are fine. For you this is sufficient but it is not for gaming and never will be:

Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100291L Radeon HD 5450 (Cedar) 512MB 64-bit DDR2 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

You may find a GDDR3 model too, although that is fine. Depending on the software, MPEG-2 and x264 are hardware decoded. Its tiny and doesn't take much power. You also don't need 1GB of RAM.

Wait so any card can play Red-Cyan 3D im guessing. Do any cards support RealD 3D?
