Using a TV as a Monitor

[KateB]

Hi everyone.

I'm looking at getting a new monitor and have started to consider a TV instead mainly as I watch a lot of BLU-Rays, Box sets and Netflix and game a lot less than I use too.

The PC it will be used for is not used for any work but will be used for web browsing and some gaming and if a TV is bought some console gaming too.

I have been looking at this TV:

I know TV's suffer from input lag but this one seems to have a PC/Gaming mode built in, at about 3:35 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gN9iMitxZBQ

Basically will this TV work as a monitor and allow me to play PC games like World of Warcraft and be able to view web pages clearly?

Thank you.

Thanks.

The room I will use it in isn't huge so 32" is the perfect size and it will also go on the wall.

I assumed looking at that video I posted above the PC/Gaming mode was built in but it may be a users unique named input but it does appear that either way this is an option.

This does look like the one I'm going to get, great reviews at a great price.

Thanks again

Thanks.

I think I will get the LG 32LF650V and use it for movies and gaming and anything that doesn't look good I can always keep my current 24" monitor connected and use that.

Thanks everyone.
