Hey guys

I'm looking for an HDTV, 26-28 inches. My Budget is around 400ish

I want to use it for My PC(mostly), TV and My N64. I am not really sure which HDTV to get honestly, do you guys have any recommendations as far as HDTV's go for PC Gaming?

Nintendo 64?! Man, good memories there, good memories.

TVs do not make good PC monitors. They not only usually have a much lower refresh rate, but they just don't have the same picture quality at all, they are meant to be viewed from across the room, not right in front of you.

Yeah makes sense. I really wanted an awesome monitor for my pc plus be able to use it for tv and my 64 :P, like an all in one.

I there is a monitor that samsung made which is a monitor with a tv tuner. multifunction monitor, the 2770HD or w/e its called but i dunno what the picture quality is like for PC.

Lol unless you have a good lazy computer set up with a 60" and up tv that you actually are gaming from across the room on :p, but then again that's just for gaming and movie watching.  Also, the refresh rate would be better with a dlp tv it's in the nano seconds.  But, anyways when you're wanting to browse the net and type things and such a monitor is close to a necessity so I would dump that 400 bucks on a good monitor.
