Don't buy LA32A330! It is low end and you'll regret it for gaming.
It is good for watching TV and best HighDef is only 720p.

For gaming, pay a bit more and go for LA32A550, it is full 1080p, extremely
fast response for gaming (5ms), and very bright (15,000:1 contrast ratio).

Can you explain what exactly can you see when you use that cable HDMI-to-DVI on your LCD?
Any signals? ..any blinking???

In order to see the high def with decent quality (720p or better),
you need the LCD TV to be at least 32 inch sitting about 3-5ft away.

If using only 19~21 inch LCD, you can't see because the writings are too small.

New TV price will continue to go down.. but since games are always new stuff and new technology coming up.
it will stay high for new.. but after a while. you can get cheaper bargain like those Greatest Hits series.

If you have 10K, then surely can afford to get good Full HD with 52" or better.

IMO, anything less than 32", 720p should be ok.
Anything 32" or higher... 1080p would be better for gaming..

If watching TV only only.. perhaps 720p should be ok until 42".
For 42" or higher.. get full 1080p for BluRay or upscaled DVD.

If watching Astro and OTA only, you don't need to get LCD.
Stick with your old CRT until Astro/OTA signal gets to digital high def next time.

For PS3, any display with HDMI is best for it. Go with the display with HDMI native otherwise
you've to convert with a dongle.

Actually, don't get the 37" inch TV if the precious size is already 32" inch
because the upgrade doesn't really make much noticeable difference.

You'll see difference more if the TV upgrade is 10 inches or more.

Here's my recommendation:

24" or less <- Don't be silly, might as well stick to your old PC monitor
32"~37" <- Good for gamers, sitting 2-3m away
42"~46" <- Nice size tv for most family.
52"~58" <- Premium upgrade if you have a bit more dough
60"~72" <--Elite! Very nice for your living room, wow your friends and family!!!

I noticed some of you are Samsung owners. Me too.
Have both 32" 1080p (game room/office) and 52"1080p/120hz (family living room).
When compared to other models, I found Samsung LCD TVs are extremely bright with deep black level.
Very happy with the quality.

What's the cheapest cap ayam 32" LCD TV that one can buy today?

Is another cap ayam cheaper than GC?

Need one that is at least 720p, 32" - no frills needed.. heck don't care if it only has one HDMI port
as long it is good enough for PS3 gaming and Astro watching.

Anything that is less than RM1000? This is not for me of course... just a gift for someone else, yeah I'm cheap.
