Samsung LE32R41BD

[xpronic]

Can the Samsung LE32R41BD be used as a PC monitor? If yes, would I be able to play fast paced games without seeing any ghosting effect, if not, then I guess I'll just buy them for the Xbox 360 lol. That's the main reason behind me getting a HD-Ready TV.

Yeah a PC can be displayed onto it. It has a D-sub input. There shouldnt be any ghosting on the tv because the response time is a better than average 12ms I'm getting one later next year

the 51 has a better response time than the 41, but is newer so costs more

and remember, maximum res on the screen is 1360x768, so you certainly won't like using it as a monitor - it's designed as a tv, for viewing at a distance. if you want a large monitor, try apple's 30" beast (which has an appropriate resolution for its size for use on a desktop)

True tbh. But it would be fine for watching movies or playing games

Argh! Well it looks like I'll be sticking with the 24" Dell lol. I can't afford the Apple 30" just yet, I want to see if the proposed 30" monitor from Dell will be cheaper.
