I have a 40in 1080p TV that has my PC, Wii U, and PS4 hooked up to it. I plan on buying a high end monitor when I move out of this small room.

Why no keep the TV?
Two big monitors, one bigass hdtv floating on the wall above em. All connected to PC.

Enjoy your lag, homo.
l like to play everything in my Dell Monitor IPS but i have a big plasma tv that destroys it in picture quality.
its just great to play games without the fucking blackligh shit and have actually pure blacks.

Where did he say he's getting rid of it?
I have my PC hooked up to a 42 inch PC with one of those small bluetooth keyboard/mouse things. I only play games with controllers on it.
Works pretty good. Had one friend ask how I was playing Witcher 3 on an Xbox 360 because of my controller.
Monitors are for pro-gamers such as myself.
HDTV for consoles and retro, monitors usually have 0 upscaling so unless the game scales to 1080p it wont look great.

I'm not getting rid of it. I'm gonna have the TV as a second screen for my PC and it'll still have my consoles hooked up to it.
I’m lucky enough to already have a pretty decent PC monitor, a 28-inch 4K Acer screen with Nvidia’s G-Sync frame-smoothing tech, but by plugging my gaming rig into the LG OLED TV I've been testing that now looks both ridiculously small and horrendously washed out.

If tou care about poicture quality you want a good high-mid tier TV
Monitors are great, but they cant stand agains colours or contrast of a good TV, the picture will just looks dull and mute.

36 inch 1080p 60hz display here. Nothing to complain about, I haven't actually seen higher refresh rates let alone experienced them for myself, and I don't want to spoil my appetite. I've heard that once you go 1440p or 120hz (or both), going back to 1080p60 feels like a jagged slideshow. At least there's no input lag whenever I hook up my PS4/BONE.Not that I could ever dream of hitting 1440p or 120hz because I fell for the 980 meme a month before the Pascal cards were unveiled, should I sell it and get a 1070/1080?
Monitor cause low latency 144hz
Some HDTV's have HDR, but i don't think you can use HDR in Game Mode, so enjoy 200ms extra input lag

I fell for the 144hz meme
was 60hz before
I can't see the difference - then again I'm getting into my late 20's now
current setup. TV is also hooked up to consoles (ps3, wii, wiiu, ps2) it's a decent setup for a semi poorfag. I can still browse and play games on the 2 monitors while watching something, or when my girlfriend plays the consoles.

40 inch 4k monitor with a pair of JBL LSR530 speakers in front of my bed. That's right beside a 28 inch 1600p monitor on my desk.
The response times of TVs are shit. I might get an OLED TV for chinese cartoons when there's one for a halfway reasonable price though.

Xbox One will support HDR Gaming.
>>341096481
Both. TV mounted to the wall right next to my monitor.
>>341100350
Nvidia is adding HDR support for PC also, Microsoft & AMD will too
Problem is waiting for HDR monitor's, the jews trying to keep selling us shitty TN's
>>341100350
What is this HDR buzzword I've been hearing in light of the Xbox One slim reveal? I know what HDR is in rendering terms, Source games have had it since circa 2006. Wtf is HDR in display terms? "Moar colors"?
>>341101063
The only technology that supports HDR right now are OLED and some legacy plasmas.
TNs cant do rec.709 properly.
>>341096481
Both. Everything connected with each other. But TV mostly for games.
>>341101356
Great colours, actual blacks, the real birght or a iamge.
its cant be done with LCD thanks to shitty tecnology and the no blacks thing(lcd has shitty blackligh when black become grey)
>>341102209
Wow it's almost like the shit we had 2 decades ago with CRTs
>>341104353
But it's thinner and doesn't give you eye cancer :^)
