Hi all,
I'm not really into 3D (getting headaches watching) but a friend of mine just asked me to build something that can also handle 3D. I'm planning to use GT430, but my question is, when buying the active shutter glasses, should it be the one from nvidia or the one from the tv manufacturer?

I'm no expert, but I can imagine that different TVs use different systems and frequencies. I would recommend buying from the manufacturer.
EDIT: nVidia have their own system called nVidia 3D Vision, which is a series of certified hardware and displays. Unless the TV specifically mentions nVidia, chances are the glasses will not work.

I think it must be for the TV.
If you had to buy them for the graphics card surely you would have to buy glasses based on the Blu-ray player, not the TV.
Once the TV has the 3D video it will display it appropriately for the TV's glasses.
