Hi. My brother has SAMSUNG UE48H6400 TV and he says its 400hz. If I took my PC to his house and put my PC to it what would show up in Nvidia control panel on a 970 GTX?.

So is it like some kind of motion flow like I got on my TV. If you select it it acts as 200hz but its meant to be for mainly sport.
We have this as our main TV and it's perfectly fine. Only use it for movies/TV, so I can't comment on what it's like for gaming, but for the former I have no complaints.
I would disable any motion flow nonsense ASAP on it though. I hate it; it just makes movies look weird with the framerate appearing to change all over the place.

I have no complaints with the 55" version. I run mine in movie mode which prevents the auto backlight dimming and set the motion controls to custom with 10 on the smooth, 2 on judder and turn off the backlight control.
I use this for movies & games and it works perfect for me. I do not use game mode or label the inputs as PC. I found the results to be pretty poor doing these on this TV.

Just to make sure:
Even if it's 100Hz natively (and indeed, there are plenty of sets that are), it's only 100Hz on the OUTPUT. The input will still be limited to 60Hz. There are unofficial tricks to get 100/120Hz even on the input, but they are not guaranteed to work on every set.

Furthermore, like said, the 400Hz is purely marketing. The panel tech (IPS, VA) is limited to around 120Hz. There is nothing on the market that is even 200Hz natively, as far as I can tell. All the extra is just inflated numbers to indicate extra features, like motion interpolation. The only thing that would even theoretically be able to reach 400Hz (in visual sense), would be LED backlight flickering (PWM). But most probably there's nothing reaching anything above 150Hz.
For example, my set advertises 700Hz. But it's 100Hz natively, and I don't think even the motion interpolation reaches above 60Hz, if even that (furthermore, Philips quality in general is quite poor). And bear in mind, TV broadcasts are 25Hz in PAL, 30Hz in NTSC, and movies are 24Hz. When the motion interpolation works in double, it would still be a noticeable difference (if done right). From what I've seen, Sony has quite good motion interpolation in their upper tier.
