Planar Announces 3D Vision Ready SA2311W Monitor

Need more proof that the 3D revolution has officially begun? You got it. Planar just announced a 23-inch 3D Vision Ready monitor for mass consumption, the SA2311W. Keep in mind that Planar doesn't often put a lot of focus on the general consumer side, though the company felt compelled enough by the current 3D landscape to try and cash in on the frenzy.

"The Planar SA2311W is a sleek, attractive desktop LCD monitor designed for 3D viewing, but this affordable widescreen display is ideal for 2D use as well," Planar says. "Whether you’re playing the latest 3D game or modeling complex biomolecules, the blazing fast 120Hz frame rate and 2 ms response time deliver crisp, clear images and blur—free video."


To take advantage of the 3D visuals, you'll need to bring your own 3D Vision Kit from Nvidia (not included) and a compatible graphics card. Once you're all set with the prerequisites, the SA2311W will offer up Full HD stereo with a 1920x1080 resolution, a 120Hz frame rate, height adjustable stand, and a 2ms response time.

The SA2311W will be available to order in December for $449.
