Should I Get a Tv or Pc Monitor?

Im planning on buying a new tv for my hubby, he loves watching movies and on occasion he plays his ps3. I was thinking of buying this tv http://www.walmart.com/ip/LG-47LE5400/13904856 it has really good reviews, 4 million to 1 contrast ratio and a 120hz refresh rate. Its also an led, original prise is 1,700 dollars but its on sale for 1,100. it almost sounds to good to be true, would this tv be good to go along with his ps3?

Answer
LED TV's are the best for any environment/room you put it in and basically LG is a god sent, I have a gaming PC monitor by LG and i freaking love it, its just awesome, and the price sounds pretty decent too and those are some really nice features for a TV, so yes, Id recommend it.

Recently I bought a desktop PC. I am using my 42" LG Led TV as my PC monitor. I sit 2 feet away from my TV. Will it cause eye problem?

Answer
minimum distance that should be maintained between the user nd the moniter is 30cm.
u said ure maintaining 2 feet...it might not effect with the pc..
but incase of tv...it surely effects your eye sight..
for 42 inch tv you should atleast maintain 6 feet.

Can I use my sceptre E243BV as a monitor?

jacob

I have a sceptre E243BV 24" led tv and I was wondering if it would be good to use as a pc monitor. I'm going to be mostly gaming and browsing on this pc. It has 60 Hz. So would it be good to use? Thanks!

Answer
It will work. It has a good screen resolution. I prefer 2ms response time and 120Hz refresh rate for smooth flow, and a higher contrast ratio than 1000:1 (I looked up the model)
It will work for what it is as long as you are happy enough with the flow on the screen and picture vividness.

I actually went the other way, using a 2ms high contract ratio computer monitor for a TV, because a tuner is pretty useless since it is only for the free broadcasts. Once with a cable box and DVD/Bluray, TV and monitor are the same thing.
