nvidia offers a compatible monitor with the 3d glasses. Dunno about a 2nd one though.

Obviously you'll have to order overseas, possibly directly from NVidia.

NVidia may be able to help you even find a retailer even if they don't sell to Australia direct.

I assume you realize that it takes 2x the power to get the same framerate through the glasses so if you want to see a smooth 60Hz game through the goggles it would have to be 120Hz on the monitor. So, you can get some neat 3D effects but for Crysis (since no computer in the world can play at max settings @ 60Hz) you'd have to turn down the graphics quality so it's a big tradeoff.

Some people love it though, nor do you need to always use the goggles. I imagine they might create a chip for future graphics cards that can simply repeat every frame without much overhead. Either way, a work in progress.

Thanks guys but photonboy crysis is not supported (apparently) and i have run crysis at full settings on a high def 42"LCD @60hz benchmark @ 72fps
that was with a skulltrail extreme at 4.9ghz (water cooled) and 4x nvidia Geforce GTX 285 & 8GB DDR 800. just for you info.
I will be doing more research though.
