Silverfox Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 I use a 40" 1080p LCD with my Acer Revo net-top. While I wouldn't say text is 100% perfect, changing icon and default text size helps a lot. I mainly tend to use XBMC with 1080p MKV rips. Looks perfectly good to me - even the odd game is fine. Bit big for a desk though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bp9801 Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Lol, 40" on your desk I swear I've seen someone with that. Maybe Waco? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adriantrances Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 I'm using a Panasonic Viera S1 32" Alpha S-IPS, very low input lag. You gotta be careful with LCD TV's as monitors as 98% of them are no worth buying due to high input lag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) I swear I've seen someone with that. Maybe Waco? Yep. I run a 42" 1080p monitor (yes, monitor, it has no TV tuner ) as my main display on my desktop. http://forums.overclockersclub.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=13401 I absolutely love it for gaming / drunk programming. Input lag is non-existent and aside from the relatively large pixel size (and the need to use FSAA) it's by far one of the better purchases I've made for my computer.

crazy8s846 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 The only problem i had was the text was not as sharp on the tv and sometimes it was a little hard to read.. I have it at 1080p res, i have a 26in monitor also, but i stream movies to the tv. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use proper cabling and set up the set properly it should be as sharp as any monitor (unless you *really* have a junky HDTV). LCD screens are by nature just as sharp as any other for the most part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
