I can't recommend the monitor enough. It is really great if you're ever in the market for a 120hz 3D monitor. I do love it.

Technically, this isn't necessarily the case.

People have already been developing 3D fixes for ages using injectors. Theoretically, it should totally be possible to do the same here. With Dolphin being DX11 now, it will undoubtedly be tougher, but it should still be possible.

In this case, you'd likely need to swap out the 3D fix injectors as appropriate, but it should be possible to make fixes for individual games.

Saw your post and was just about to do it, but saw that you had done so already. Thanks, I'll keep that in mind in the future.

Just tested that build and it did seem smoother on the few levels I played in SSBB and Goldeneye was a lot smoother (stable 30fps) compared to a jittery ~20fps normally. No unexpected crashes so far.

The thing is, I'm not complaining about game glitches. Sure, individual games could be fixed with patches, cheats, etc. But, I'm complaining about base problems with my monitor. D3D9's version of 3D Vision gave me a lot more problems, so I never really saw a reason to use it (it rarely engaged, it crashed a lot, depth was screwed up most of the time) or complain. However, the 3D Vision support here actually works pretty well; whether it's because Dolphin has gotten more accurate or 3D Vision support has gotten better, I don't know.

Regardless, I need to stop obsessing on this fact. Everything else seems pretty good with this build. Dualcore unstable games tend to have more problems, but with 3D Vision that seems to be because the GPU thread is under a ton more stress.

For those with stuttering, I tried playing games with 3D off and it seems like the studdering still happens. Directx seems way slower than opengl in dolphin.

It is much slower than Dolphin in a lot of games. That's the truth; but it's smoother when it does reach full speed in exclusive fullscreen.

I'm using 3D Vision perfectly fine with normal Dolphin using a custom profile.
Exclusive fullscreen is supposed to be smoother, but regarding 3D Vision, exactly how is this better when I already have the profile installed?

• A slight performance boost.
  

does the boost affect GPU or CPU performance or both?

I'm not sure yet, we still have to run benchmarks to see what the actual performance difference is.

I expect it will only affect performance when the video backend is the bottleneck.

As soon as you open the graphics options, it recognizes both dolphin windows as 1 window, and thus doesn't let you switch to the graphics one without taking exclusive full screen control. You can solve this by using Alt + Enter to exit exclusive full screen, toggle the graphics options, then press Alt + Enter again to get back into exclusive full screen mode.

I can confirm this is an issue, thank you for the report. I will try to address the problem soon.

When press Escape, black screen, confirm dialog sometimes shows up, sometimes doesn't. However, it still responds to input. Press Space or Enter to exit.

I was worried that might happen, thanks for letting me know, I will address it soon.
