I have the worst tv on this forum hands down. At least 10 years old lol

 

I have the most awesome TV known to mankind!

Samsung 42" PLASMA. 720, 60Hz.

I know there are "better" TVs stat wise, but this TV is AMAZING.

 

That's what I use and I love it.

 

I switch between a 55" Panasonic Plasma and a 58" Panasonic Plasma depending on which room I am in. 75% of the time it is on the 55".

I also have played on my 70" DLP (hitachi), 32" LCD (Sony), 42" LED/LCD (Philips).

By far the plasma's have the best picture for Black Ops 2 of the televisions I have used. Just my experience, your mileage may vary.

 

I use a 37" LCD HDTV. It's perfect for gaming because it doesn't strain your eyes to much looking around for enemies.

 

I use a 7 yr old tv that I'm forced to use converters to even play on it...

 

Sadly I am still playing on a tv that's over 20 years old that my parents bought with a crack in the side for a discounted price. Everything works fine on it but the screen is so small I can't see the vote map screen between games lol.

 

46" Samsung LN46C630 LCD, 4ms response time when in gaming mode. Love it.

that is what i am saving for.right now old school glass front 32 inch it has video game mode but is hard to see radar and tuff to play when maps are dark.:violin:

 

I use a 52" Samsung 650 Series TV... it's old... but it's nice... the 120hz helps out...

I might switch to a more competitive set up and I heard many players praise this monitor:

But I debating if I want to go down that route or just enjoy my more casual setup... if so, I might look at a larger LCD... 60" plus

Honestly - LCD is better than Plasma even if plasma gives the illusion of being better.

The key I think is to find a low MS response.

Also I noticed very little difference between 240 and 120hz... but I'd make sure to buy a TV that has a on/off button for the hz...

Nothing worse than watching a movie in 120hz...

And I personally believe that Samsung has the best TV's out there...

Also, don't spend too much money on a TV!!! The new 4k and 8k TVs will be out soon.... (and by out I mean at a reasonable price since they already are out)

 

READ THIS... amazing... TVs are only going to get cheaper...

I currently run the lowest input lag asus monitor I could find.. I forget the model, but its the one that was last years mlg one. I know its off topic since your looking for a tele, but the resolution and color of a monitor can't be touched on a tele.

If you have your heart set of a tele theres a few basic things you want to remember. input lag is what you want to be low...response time is low on all televisions. Also there is not many manufactures that list the input lag value of a television as its a much more select group that cares. Dont go over 42" as you'll hate it for any competitive gaming. Plasma tv's in general have the lowest input lag of the bunch, with many lcd's being horrible (even in game mode).

many of the better televisions for input lag are still in the 50- 160 ms range, whereas most monitors are 8-30 ms.

best place for info is avforums.com , crazy wealth of tv/monitor info there as well as input lag tests for many models.

 

I have a 650 series TV (I did my research before I purchased it and found this to be a great setup) and I've since used this guide to configure my TV - might be useful to you guys when considering a TV:

I have a 42" Vizio LED Smart HDTV. Not a bad TV at all. 1080p/120hz, the picture is very nice and there are different modes for movies/gaming/sports etc.

 

I have a 55" Samsung LCD 600 Series.

That would be totally e-flex worthy if it were 2 years earlier.:eyebrows:

 

You guys play on some big screens. I play on the ASUS VG238H which is basically the LED Version of the VH236H. I chose because it's an affordable monitor with sufficient specs. I thought about getting a BenQ monitor for $500 but I didn't know if it was worth it or not so I just got an ASUS.
