tigerfish 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2010 Hi Guys, Ready to move into my new house~Thinking of get a big TV Just went around the Best Store and some other neibourhood store. I got some model in mind: from BEST: SONY-KDL52V5500 S$3299 (without freebies, I hate freebies anyway)--scan rate only 50Hz SONY-KDL52Z4500 S$3499 (without freebies)--scan rate upto 200 Hz, but dynamic Although these two models are to be cleared as new models are coming up, I'm quite into Z4500 But Saw Toshiba (I didn't even pay attention to Toshiba before) 55" Regza ZV600 from a neighbourhood store ask for S$3500 (Without freebies) only. I read through the manual and spec.s seems fine---200Hz and other full HD output Do you guys have any suggestions or other recommendations? ---I have budget around S$3500, so LED is out of question ---Scan rate is not that crucial, I really need it to be at least 100Hz (you might not notice the difference between 100Hz and 200Hz, but you can really tell 100Hz from 50Hz) ---I'm going to assemble an HTPC, so I need the TV to be able to display 1080p "pixel to pixel" when it connects to the PC (I notice that some people complain for black borders or 'extended' full HD) Feel free to enlight me~ Thanks a lot~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigerfish 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2010 How about Samsung Series 6? It has 100 Hz scan rate and of course full hd. Ya, I came across this 52" LA52B550K1(5 series) in BEST, but it costs S$4099 with freebies (I hate freebies) ...and what's more...I'm not sure about the scan rate? only 50Hz I guess?

But if 100HZ is good enough for you, then so be it. The Z4500 specs is quite tops & with the Motionflow 200Hz feature, you can guarantee the best display on fast moving action without the jitters. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigerfish 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 (edited) Just to let you guys know, I ordered SONY KDL52Z4500 in BEST @ IMM the price is S$3299 plus a free 1m HDMI cable (nothing big deal, but better than nothing) Seems this model will be one of the last >50" LCD TVs from SONY, since SONY, samsung are trying to promote their LED TVs in the future Will test the PC connection once I got the TV, will let you guys know.

That life though. Enjoy it because I think it will be a few years before 3D really takes hold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
