I don't know why you'd use a TV for a PC. Maybe as a second monitor or large display for streaming movies and such, or for times you specifically want to play on the couch with multiple people or something, but if you're alone, have a good monitor.
>>
Monitors have better pp€ than TVs.

You would be dumb to buy a TV for the sole purpose of being a monitor for your PC.

>buying a tv to use a monitor

You realize most people have a tv right?

Vizio P series 65" 2160p @ 60hz / 1080p @ 120hz
Asus 27" 1440p @ 120hz with ULMB active

I enjoy both, depending on what I'm playing I may prefer one over the other. Also people like this >>340112163 don't realize there are 4k TVs with as low or lower input delay than top of the line monitors.

What really is nice about a good monitor is ULMB. Nothing comes close to dat silky smooth feel.

What's that music program?
>>
>>340112997
Samsung or Vizio. They're the only two that have 55"+ 4k with sub 20ms input delay.

Vizio P or M series if you've got a budget, otherwise a samsung KS8500.
>>
input lag only maters if you play teitch level competitive FPS.

the rest is fine with TV.

>>340113045
It's Foobar with the Catrox skin. Very lightweight player that's heavily customizable, this is my favorite layout with tabs to switch between library, album art and other things.
>>
>>340113431
Already on foobar but the skin is pretty slick, thanks for the info man.
>>
>>340110805
Not even a fucking choice, anon.

The input lag on TVs make it the objectively inferior choice for anything other than casual gaming.
>>
>>340113243
Thanks for the help!
>>
>>340113558
Anytime, it's the best looking and most functional one I've found. If your playback icons appear as numbers after you install the skin, you may have to manually install the included fonts in windows by right-clicking the files, that way the arrow and pause/stop symbols will show correctly.

TV

comfy couch + beer.

monitor for PC, tv for consoles and television.
Anything else is retarded

The funny thing is that Street Fighter V itself provides more lag than the majority of televisions. https://youtu.be/ap369ES-6Xw

I prefer a big TV and a comfortable couch. I think for PC a desk and the monitor is the way to go since you can handle the keyboard and mouse much better.
