hi guys. new here. i hope this is d rite section hehe smile.gif i posted somewwhere else but no reply.. sweat.gif

im gonna get a ps3 next week and im looking for a good monitor to get also

any recommandations please?

my budget is within RM2xxx...not more then RM3k and at least 32 inch..FULL HD

confused on what to buy

i did research on Sony and it seems good, but when i look at specs it says 8ms Response time for most Sony LCD Bravia within my budgeted price range..I read somewhere best to get below 5ms response... even my PC monitor 2ms response.
so is it necessary to take the seponse time in consideration?


so can anyone suggest me a good LCD TV or any LCD that good for games ? or what u think is best? doesnt have to be Sony..

Thank u guys! icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

Have you compared the specs and its your personal option / desire to choose what's best for your own satisfaction, if you ask opinion, you'll get 100's of difference opinions which you might end up undecidable..

Its a lousy time to buy a Panasonic or Samsung when the 2010 models are gonna be released either this month or the next. I believe Sony has already released their 2010 range.

I think even with new model come out, the price should be higher.. For me, it's no point to keep waiting for tech.. u cant follow the trend, just buy when u need it.

Yes. That's what I meant. biggrin.gif
I understand newer models are more exp but older models will also fall in price. The newer models usually have
better specs too.

ok, i'm having the same dilemma for you as well bro! smile.gif

on my opinion, choose Sony if you want to use the Bravia Sync function, for me, its just for lazy people..hahaha..USB function can run from your PS3..

UNLESS, you are getting the 2010 model with Wi-fi built in..but hey, you are plugging a PS3 to your TV, all those function can be run from your PS3...besides that, i dont find any relevant features if you want to use the LCD only for PS3


samsung series 5 40" FULL HD LCD TV, LA40B53 -> 6ms response time

32 inch EX400 Series BRAVIA LCD TV -> anyone know the response time?
*EX series with motionflow is rm3k, not worth it IMHO, you can get 40" LCD TV, future LCDs with this feature will be much2 cheaper.

PQ, i go for other brand like Samsung, FUNCTIONALITY, its SONY, your decision rclxms.gif

There's a misconception on plasma tvs. The older generation plasma tv has the burn in effects.

But the newer models, already address this issue. No more burn in issues.

I personal think Plasma are more superior than LCD.

All those sales man want to sell LCD, will say Plasma is outdated or phasing out....all those all bullshxt.

It's more expensive to produce a plasma than a lcd tv.

LCD TV are more profitable to sell than plasma tv. Better margins.
