Looking for a TV

[loony979]

Hey forum looking for a new TV :

Size - 55"

Price up to $1500

 

Will be to replace my old TV DGTEC 42" @ 6.5ms ( it works great still )

Also please keep in mind that it's main purpose as a PC-Monitor if this TV can

do it im sure others @ 55" can also do it with not that much more input lag say 16-25ms range would be nice .

 

I have found that SONY is the best to use ,tho im sure you guys can lead me in the

right direction .

My Sharp TV is still running strong. I recommend Sharp

Anything from sony or samsung will be great. Just make sure it is compatible with PC by either having a VGA port or having a special HDMI port stated in the manual for use with PC.

Otherwise you can have some issues with the image quality that will make it impossible to use with PC

Most modern smart TVs will work with PC though.

This one is way cheaper than $1500 and is 120Hz and 1080p http://www.sharpusa.com/ForHome/HomeEntertainment/LCDTV/Models/LC55LE643U.aspx

If any 1 can let me know if i get this TV ,with input lag of 24.3 According to this Vid is any good for PC ?.

Pls note that im not a hard core gamer tho i do not want any mouse movement being delayed .

Or should i still go for the KDL-W000A witch has 16 ms-20ms input lag.

 

If any 1 can shed some light on this id really like to read about it ...

So it is:

KDL-55W800A vs

KDL-55W800B

Sony have almost everytime the lowest inputlag 25ms or lower.

Because you have a tv that has now an very low input lag, I think you're going to see/feel the difference because you have the TV for a while.
The key difference between Sony KDL55W800B and KDL55W802A are coming from the types of 3D that installed on the TV.
Sony KDL55W800B comes with Active 3D while Sony KDL55W802A comes with passive 3D.
There’s no big differences between Active 3D and passive 3D except that Active 3D just require closer sitting distance compare to passive 3D.
There’re also less significant differences on the TV stand design and the number of USB inputs.
Sony KDL55W800B comes with V-shaped square edge stand design with 2 USB inputs while, Sony KDL55W802A comes with circle TV stand design with 3 USB inputs.

I hope this helps you choosing your TV but model A has lower input lag then model B but just oh so little 1-3ms more while the Top W905 serries are under 19 ms. (cost more)
