- Uninstall IDT drivers (Programs and Features) -> reboot -> F8 Safe mode -> uninstall Nvidia drivers DDU third uninstall option (shutdown/no rescan)

- BIOS settings F2 -> Enable IDT (integrated sound card) -> Enable IGP -> Set display to SG -> save without exit option -> shutdown -> remove 780m (2 screws/Keep the heatsink on).

- Windows -> Install IDT Drivers -> reboot -> test Audio settings.

- BIOS settings -> disable IGP -> set display to PEG -> save without exit option -> shutdown -> reinsert 780M.

- Download GeForce 337.81 Beta Driver

- Extract drivers with 7-Zip/winrar.

- Display.Driver folder, copy/overwrite nvdmi.inf v337.81

- Nvidia 337.81...International folder\ run setup exe

Yep, 120Hz monitor (DP or DVI Dual-Link inputs) + 3DVision kit, Mini DisplayPort UltraAV® Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.2 Cable (backwards compatible to v1.1a) or Mini DisplayPort to DVI Dual-Link Active Adapter - USB Powered.
