In all, we were pleased with the VG236H from Asus. It consistently hit the mark in our testing and produces a fantastic image, whether it be 2D, 3D, work or play
There is an old axiom that 'seeing is believing', and with 3D Vision it is very apt. The main thing that I ramble on to anyone within earshot about is the sheer depth you get. Everything feels like it's exactly where you'd expect it to be in real-life.
The VG236H isn't the fastest 120 Hz monitor, but it what it lacks in responsiveness, it makes up for with extra hardware features its competitors are lacking. Once it's set up properly, it has colours that are as good as the Acer GD245HQ's. If usability is important for you, it's the
"For gamers looking to break into 3D gaming, it's hard to look further than the VG236H. Bring a compatible card and take part in the newest trend in PC gaming. As 3D monitors go, this one isn't perfect - but it comes admirably close."
"With the 120Hz display, you’re really getting every frame at or below 120 FPS drawn to the screen. At that high of a response time, you definitively can’t see flicker. The result is a similar kind of ‘once you’ve experienced it, you can’t go back’ to a solid state drive."

Iv just bought this monitor this morning out of just wanting a 3DHD Monitor for my computer, not thinking if it would be compatible with my PC or not, I have a Powercolor Radeon HD 6850 775MHZ 1GB 4.0GHZ GDDR5 2xDVI DisplayPort HDMI PCI-E Video Card in my computer now... will it still work? I'm scared...

I've owned this monitor for a couple of weeks now, and have used it in both 3D and non 3D mode, as well as just at 60hz and then again at 120hz after my GTX 580s came in a separate shipment.
At first i was very sceptical about how well 3d vision would work on a pc. I picked up this setup a few days ago and so far it has been fantastic. Playing games in 3d allows you to feel more of a connection to the game and adds a lot of depth. The experience changes depending on the game, Call of Duty 4 looked ok but despite being rated higher for 3d by nvidia, i found Call of Duty 2 looked 10x better. Looking down the gun sights proved easier and more accurate than using them in 2d, not to mention the weapons appear to stick out of the screen and bolt action rifle reloads give the feeling of bolt being inches from your face during a reload. All this was at 10% depth. Other notable effects during some games were, lingering gun smoke, explosions, flying debris and fire effects. In many games the 3d effect is subtle but still adds a lot to the game.
The 16 page complain thread on the Nvida forums has NOTHING to do with this monitor, in fact the entirety of the thread happened before this monitor was even released. I have had zero issues with ghosting on this monitor. In fact looking at the same spots in the same games as those shown in that thread there I see nothing similar to what they are seeing. Adjusting convergence would probably fix 90% of these peoples issues, anyway.
