[log in to unmask]" type="cite">I second everything Jeroen said except the need for a €450 graphics card. We have a Quadro 600, which was only £105 or something like that. The slightly cheaper Quadro 400 would have worked as well. There are now successors to these cards. Unless something has changed in their specification, they should work with the monitor with built-in emitter. Others can comment on that.
Best regards.

Dear all,
We are looking into ordering a stereo monitor. I am aware that this
question comes up every so often on this BB (and I read the post by
Alice), but maybe someone has any comments or recent experience with
passive vs. active monitors?
And: Which graphics card can you recommended? The monitor will be used
with Linux and Windows, so support of the correspoding graphics card
with both systems is required.
Thanks and best wishes,
Tobias.
