What to look for in a "Gaming" Tv?

The biggest three selling points were:
- Support for 4k 120 Hz (once we get GPUs that support it, next gen). For now I either run 2560x1440 120 Hz if I care more about fps, or 4k60 where I don't.
- It is nvidia G-sync Compatible Certified. No tearing, low latency.
- OLED blacks, no haloing for HDR, even if HDR range is a low level
BTW the specific model I got (linked previously) is the OLED55B9PLA (UK model, the US model end PUA), which is about the cheapest model I think. There's a C9 with better processor, and you can go up to 65" at a big jump in price. I didn't even need 55" but they don't come any smaller. It is still an experience seeing games this large, even when not running 4k. They announced a 48" model earlier this year, but it doesn't look like it is any cheaper though.
There do appear to be a lot of 55" class 4k TVs available for much cheaper, but I didn't really dig into them as I really wanted G-sync or similar, as well as future support for higher refresh. Unlikely to be found on budget models.
