I also need some reccomendation...plannig to change to 42" Full HD in the future replacing my current 32" sammy...

so I'm mainly use it for gaming and PC...only this two...who ever have a suggestion, can recommend it to me...

targeting around RM3000...

This set dun have 100Hz, only the ZV series have...

But I think it is still acceptable without motion flow, there is no ghosting, gaming response is excellent, and fast motion looks smooth enough (although not SUPER smooth like those 100Hz capable sets). For my usage model, I think it is more than I could ask for already

Added on February 12, 2010, 5:40 pmIf you are using mainly for gaming and PC, there is no need for those 100Hz capable models, becoz the TV can only support maximum 60Hz from any input source now, the 100Hz effect is generated by interpolating frames so it's not like you can actually send more than 60fps from the PC to the TV. If you want true >100Hz from your PC to the TV, you have to wait for 3D capable TVs to arrive first, those will have native support for >100Hz input source

What you need to look for is a TV that has a "PC mode" which tunes the color and sharpness of the picture to look exactly like a normal LCD monitor so that small text look sharp and every pixels is clearly distinguishable. Coz if you set to movie or cinema modes etc, the color will be tuned to look more like TV with soft natural tones and all but small text would be a pain to read.

I think the TV I just bought is spot-on for your budget as well. It has the "PC mode" I described above and it very responsive, perfect for both console and PC gaming!

ok thanks...really appreciated...

Just bought a Panasonic TH-L42S10K Full HD LCD TV with a free HDMI cable at our local electrical store at RM2,700 only. Thought its a good bargain and thought of sharing the info here.

Good deal bro.Where do you buy that TV..

Bought it at HLK electrical store.

wah~ long time didn't notice this thread i opened few months ago.... so many of you oso looking for LCD?? simple word, i'm really enjoy my 42ZV600 watching bluerays and HD movies with my HTPC..... and astro too..... the PQ... no need to mention again. now installing my Gigaworks S750 speakers set to complete my HTPC set-up!!!

I'm planning to buy HD player also. Instead of bluray ( now still expensive ) , which HD player better huh? My list is Eaget or AC Ryan.
I'm trying to watching RMVB file thru my laptop, using HDMI, the problem is got picture, but no sound.
So i have to use VGA & speaker cable. So the PQ not so good.

sacrifice some money and build urself a HTPC.... with BD Player as well..... then u can watch either Blueray, HD contents, RMVB, avi, blah blah..... all in one!! but have to spend some $$$ lor.....using laptop output to LCD won't meet ur satisfaction de... maybe u can start with a low cost htpc, less than RM1K or maybe few hundreds for used parts and safe the earth as well (recycle)!!!

already got Home Theather with amp, speaker....so i think HD player just enought for me.

Since it is not LED then how come it is so expensive as compared to Samsung 40va b6000 at RM4,000?


Pls advice.

I see sales tactic here, they jack up the ZV price so that they could slowly negotiate until you get hooked up to a good discount they could offer you is one of the possibility. Another possibility is that by having LED tv price so close to a LCD tv price makes you believe that it is a crazy bargain for the LED tv so that they could push up their specific brand of LED tv sales (better commission given by the manufacturer to push their product sales ?)

The current market price for 42ZV600E should be about RM3600, given a choice, one is 2" extra and RM500 cheaper, will you still consider the LED tv ?

Just my 0.0002 cents

I saw at newspaper today Courts is selling Sharp LED 40" at RM4699 which cost the same as the Toshiba 42ZV600E which I can get at RM3000 at my nearest shop.. gotta try my luck with the LED see weather they can give it that cheap or not.. but I think the toshiba better coz got Resolution+
