Panasonic 32inch LED TV as a gaming monitor?

Arthaei · 9 Sep 2013 at 18:42

Hi guys I'm hoping someone could advise me here,

I've recently won a brand new Panasonic 2013 model (TX-L32E6B) 32inch tv (I know, Woohoo! hehe). I'm also thinking of upgrading my pc gaming rig in the near future and I suspect I will be buying something here at Overclockers.

All I'm wondering is would this screen be suitable for pc gaming? the likes of WoW, Battlefield 4 in the future etc. I have a Samsung 22 inch at the moment, so I'm wondering if anyone would have a clue if it would be better or worse? We have a very good 40 inch tv downstairs so if it wouldn't work for gaming in my bedroom I would probably end up just selling it on ebay.

Thanks for any advice!

Be fine just make sure you enable game mode on the set..

What resolution is the TV? For gaming it shoud be fine, but if its not 1080p then desktop/text based applications will be a pain, IMO.

Input lag will be in the 30ms range. Fine for consoles, not so good for FPS PC gaming.
