Recommend a TV?

[byalexandr]

Currently I have a VG248QE that I game on, with some Planar monitor as a secondary. I like to sit in my bed and watch Netflix or YouTube, or sometimes just lay down and play games. But it's very hard to read sometimes, the 24" screen is small when you're 6-8 feet away.

 

I want something to mount above my desk on the wall, and possibly take with me to college in the fall. I'm not really sure how TVs are categorized and stuff, I don't know if I should just get a 1080p one or what the different panel types are. Cost is a big factor here.

 

Oh and I will be using a GTX 1080 so I don't know if that makes 4K worth it.

I went to Best Buy and bought whatever was least expensive at the time. 

 

I believe this is the closest I could find in price.

Is 32" big enough? I feel like I need something a bit larger, however I'm not sure if 1080p is the right option if I go any bigger. And is it worth the cost for OLED or no?

I'm sitting about 6 feet from the bed to the TV. 1080 32" doesn't cause me any issues, but I think the prices have fallen on some 4K TVs so that's an option. 

 

The impact of an OLED is quite good. If you're going with a 4K TV, I'd go 40" for 6 feet. Text will get smaller with 4K in video games (for some reason), but the picture will look very crisp thanks to the DPI.
