Polarized?
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...)

120hz+ would be helpful, with a budget of under $300, and without shutter glasses unless it comes with a great reason for this method.

For gaming..

G'bless.

You will not be able to afford shutter glasses, but there is a great reason for them, higher resolutions. Passive systems split the existing 1080p viewing area into two screens, meaning every other horizontal row will not be viewable by one or the other eye. This results in a 1920x540 resolution that makes viewing text terrible. The advantage no cross talk and lower costs.

Is it the same with polarized?

Some 3D Vision displays come with glasses, pretty sure.

Passive systems are polarized. It is just another way to describe the same tech. So with that monitor you are looking at, your monitor will look as it is 1920x540 in resolution, missing every other horizontal line, making blurry text, which may or may not be a big deal depending on the games you play.

How is shutter for extended playthroughs? Nvidia Vision capable monitors are required to run that service?

I find shutter glasses to be good. I do get a little ghosting in high contrast areas due to some light getting through the darkened lens. I do not have any issues with headaches or eye strain, but I make sure I always play at 60 FPS. I do get a little nausea after 30-60 mins, but I have that problem with in 2D as well, if limited to 60 FPS.

The Asus VG248QE is a good 3D Vision monitor, but requires you to purchase the 3D Vision 2 kit separately. However, it is out of your price range.
