Question by : Plan to buy a 1080p LCD TV, I also plan to use it as my monitor for my pc. bad for the the TV?
I heard that TVs are not meant to be used as monitors for long periods of time/ very often. Heard this from word of mouth but my question is, is it true. should I not buy a LCD TV and use it as a monitor as well?

Answer by A
This depends on the type of display. Certain displays, such as plasma displays can be damaged by having a static image on them for a long time. They end up looking like an old cash machine screen does – with the image permanently etched into the screen.

Need help Looking to buy an 37-47 inch lcd hdtv Resolution 720p or 1080p?


Posted by admin

Question by soutelzfinezt: Need help Looking to buy an 37-47 inch lcd hdtv Resolution 720p or 1080p?
I am looking to purchase a hdtv probably in the sizes between 37-47 inches probably 1080p. I have heard that to notice the difference in 1080p than 720p the screen size needs to be bigger than 42inches. So for example if i bought a 37 inch tv there would be no point to buy a 1080p for that size correct? Now i want the tv to watch hd dvds play my 360 etc. I know you must have an xbox 360 elite with the hdmi input to have it in 1080p but i hear that the xbox 360 has to upscale 720p to 1080p since the native resolution for most games on the xbox 360 is 720p so how does this work in terms of picture quality. Basically what is upscaling and is there a big difference in upscaling than the native resolution. Or is it a waste of money and should i just buy a 720p tv and save about a thousand dollars and go with a 37inch. Since more sources right now support 1080i should i just stay with 720p now and get a 1080p later when the prices come down. and more sources support it thanks.

Answer by quikdash6
Well, to start off, you do not need an Elite to get 1080p from the 360. Really it depends on the TV. Some TVs allow for 1080p from Component, VGA, and HDMI, and some others only allow it from VGA or HDMI. Most of the older 360 games were made for a max resolution of 720p. Fortunately, the majority of the games made since about 8 months ago have the ability to show in 1080p.
Upscaling will take a 480i to 720p picture and make it look more like 1080p. It won’t look exactly like 1080p but it will get it very close.
Lots of people will tell you to get 1080p because “it’s better”, but like you said in the beginning, it’s all relative. If you are going to sit between 2 or 3 feet from a 37″ TV then you might see some difference between the two resolutions. Any further back though and your eyes just can’t tell.In other words, the bigger the TV, the better it is for you to get a higher resolution. Aside from the high definition movies and games, not much else is broadcasting in 1080p. So, in my opinion, if you don’t need 1080p, don’t get it.

Q&A: I’m looking to get a 32″ LCD flat screen TV and was wondering if 1080p really makes a difference.?


Posted by admin

Question by Richard C: I’m looking to get a 32″ LCD flat screen TV and was wondering if 1080p really makes a difference.?
Can you really tell the difference b/t 1080p and 720p in a 32″? I was looking at a Sony 1080p 32″ and have heard mixed reviews about 1080p at that screen size. Are networks broadcasting at 1080p or would it only be for blu-ray?

Best answer:

Answer by abhi18033
no it won’t be a huge difference compared to 720p at that screen size. also the only way to receive 1080 signal is from a blu ray player or ps3. networks broadcast in 1080i at best.

Is there a difference between 720p and 1080p HDTVs when playing a Playstation 3?


Posted by admin

Question by Me: Is there a difference between 720p and 1080p HDTVs when playing a Playstation 3?
except that 1080p HDTVs are bigger in size. Is the quality in HD different. Because in my room i dont think i can afford/fit a 40 inch 1080p TV. So is there a difference between 720p and 1080p ? Also 16:9 is best right ?

Best answer:

Answer by The Painful Truth
The 720p and 1080p doesn’t have to do with the size, but with the definition. The 1080p is a finer definition, and is nicer, but it depends on which game you play for if you get the full 1080p definition. If you can’t tell the difference, then go for the 720p, because it will satisfy your needs. As for us techno geeks, we will be enjoying every last piece of our fine 1080p definition.
