40inch 4K Tv as pc monitor

[Carlos coconutt]

Hello everyone, i would like to buy something to have a new experience. I can have a samsung 4k tv 60hz for 450$ CAD. I’m gaming sometimes and I was wondering if that could be ok ? Thanx a lot !

There is no 32 inch 4k tv

It would work but using TVs for PC gaming isn't really ideal. TVs tend to have slower pixel response times for one, TVs also usually do post processing which increases input latency.

 

I use my LG 4K TV as a secondary monitor and it's awesome for watching movies on but I always switch back to my monitor for gaming.

yes and no.

 

Yes . but no mroe than any VA panel Monitor.

 

MOST TV's are VA, and thats a good thing, not all VA panels are created equal.

 

Check rtings.com find a TV with low input latency (below 25ms) and fast pixel response (below 20ms)

 

idealy u would grab a Vizio TV as they tend to have around 12ms pixel response, though Samsungs are also nto bad at around 20ms.

 

Compared to monitors that upper range is a tad high, but there are plenty of VA monitors around the 10-20 ms mark, it isnt uncommon.

 

(note, dont judge by monitor specs that stats 1ms or 4ms, its utter BS, and not accurate at all compared to proper review tests)

as a daily user of a salora tv (sony panel) it's personal preference here. just try, and if you like it, keep it. if you don't, return it

Hurray for the creation of excessive e-waste.

He should just do the research and make sure it's what he wants.

then they should do the same as they do around here, just reselling it on a discount. I bought my lg watch urbane that way, only 200 bucks, just because the box was opened
