Hi There!

I would like to build a desktop for watch 3d movies only no games! I need help to figure out wich is the best system. I having 55" Samsung 3D led 240Hz.

My idea is:

Proc: Intel i7 3700k
Moth. b.: Asus p8z77-v pro
Video c: Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 ti
Memo: Corsair Vengeance 2X4Gb DDR3 1866MHz

I think it's enough but i'm not sure. I can go up or down if necessary my goal is the perfect 3d result.

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Thanks for the fast answer but i want to build a new destop because my old desktop is died, that's why i thought i build one what is gonna be able to 3d.
So you think it's overkill my plan. What should i pull down? If i could save same money on it!

If you're not going to overclock too you could go with an i5-3470 and an H77 motherboard. Then upgrade your GPU to a Radeon 7950 or a GTX 660TI with NVIDIA 3D surround. I'm guessing for your uses you most likely won't benefit from overclocking so there's no point in purchasing a 3770K. Get a stronger GPU that's capable of outputting to 3D displays. That is where you will benefit the most.

Hey! Is there really a need for a high end gpu on a pc for watching 3d movies? I'm not questioning your suggestion to get a high-end gpu like gtx 660ti..its just that i've often seen low-end gpus suggested on hometheatre pcs..do 3d blueray require more gpu power? I just read in an article that movies generally are displayed at 24fps and they are converted to higher frame rates through a process called 2:3 pull down. So if the frames are used multiple times to create more number of fps (or is each frame processed separately by the gpu?) would there be a need for a high-end gpu?

This is the article about frame rates
