    Hi,

    I ordered a refurbished L702x with 3D - GT555M

    I've been holding off buying a 3D glasses from nVidia as it is so expensive (more than £100). Are there any other 3D glasses that are compatible but cheaper ?

    Thank you.

    Hi mate,

    Where do you live? I am in the UK and have a spare pair of the NVIDIA glasses which I was going to put on eBay for £50.

    They are in good condition....just not in the box.

    If you bought a 3D system is should come with the glasses. Call Dell and they will send you the glasses with charge cable etc,etc.

    No probs....just for the record though, my 3D system was from the outlet store and did not come with NVIDIA glasses.

    i would say that it would be best to use NVIDIA glasses as that's what the drivers are compatible with.

    just drop me a line if you need further info.

    Cheers
    Lee
