What's the best tv for gaming?
"Gaming," "34 inches," and "under $400" is a tough challenge. The big problem with gaming TVs is that all of the LED/LCD sets exhibit some level of fast-motion blur that is annoying with games. The higher priced sets deal with it fairly well with a 120 or 240 hz refresh rate and a fast response time. You generally get neither with "under $400" TVs. For serious gaming you want not more than a 4 to 5 ms response time, and 2 or 3 is better. And not less than 120 hz for the refresh rate. You could solve all that by getting a plasma set instead of LCD (no blur at all), but plasmas are hard to find in screen sizes less than 42 inches. So check the specs and make your best choice now that you know what is needed. Good luck. ------------ Followup: you say "probably not plasma" in your question, but actually, a modern plasma set is the best choice. Older plasmas has a burn-in problem, which may be your concern. The newer ones have solved that.
What is the best screen size for PS4 gaming?
I’ve been using a 32″ 1080p LED TV for the past 8 years or so, and it has never served me wrong. I sit about 4–5 feet away from it, in an armchair, or I will turn the screen and sit in a computer chair if I’m wanting to look at my computer for any reason while gaming.Using this setup, I am close enough to the screen to see my whole HUD/environment, I am close enough that I can still see some smaller details, and I don’t have to worry about having something come from off screen and have to worry about focusing my sight onto it. If there are some issues with the image, I just have to adjust the gamma or brightness a little bit for fine tuning. I have been able to a headshot at about 600m while playing Wildlands.
Is a 120Hz 1080p tv good for gaming?
Consider 3D TV sets from Samsung or Panasonic as the best choice for gaming. 240 Hz is 2nd best, and 120 Hz is a tad too slow, but adequate. Keep in mind the PS4 will be doing 3D in the future, so don't limit yourself with 120 Hz if you can afford 3D, ok? You're going to have that TV for years...not months.
What is the best type of TV to play video games on?
You can play any games on any TV, provided the games are worth playing.But for pre-PS2 era games I would recommend getting a CRT TV though, because the games would have much clearer image. They were just not designed for modern digital TVs and look not as good.If you are in Europe, make sure your TV supports RGB SCART and always buy RGB SCART cables for your retro consoles - those are the best, because it's digital signal. Even French Colecovision can output it! Many older computers also do.In the USA, the s-video enabled TV is the best option for retrogaming.If you're really into 2nd-generation gaming, your TV has to support aerial cable. A lot of modern digital TV support it, but you might be out of luck with some way too modern TVs.If you are more into modern stuff (Wii U/PS3/PS4/Xbox360/XBox One), stick with 1080p HDMI and forget about CRT TVs. Most new TVs support it. If you have a Wii, the best you can get is Component or RGB SCART.There is much fuss about 4K, but I'm not sure if it's a worthy investment as of early 2016. I personally have a Samsung 27" 1080p TV and play everything on it: from Atari 2600 to XBox 360. I've even used it as a secondary monitor for my PC.
Is a 6.5ms response time good for gaming?
I don't think 6.5ms is "state of the art" these days, but it should be fine for gaming without any "ghosting". A few years back when the first 8ms LCD monitors came out, they were considered excellent for gaming. But, like the other guy said... 6.5ms is not the best available these days and you may be able to shop around and find something with better specs at a similar price.
