My wife got me 32 inch 720p lcd tv to use as a monitor for christmas and i was just wondering if i really need a 1080p? I'm used to a 23 inch pc monitor running at 1080p. Will it be much worse? I don't want to upset her but imo it would be better to get the right one from the start.

I am thinking the same but mine is a 27" LED TV...believe it is also a 720p...watching TV you cannot get 1080p yet..but gaming you can ..so is there a significant difference..???:doh:

The difference is just the true resolution:

 

I'm running a Sharp 37" 720p @ 1280x768 resolution. For the most part, games look awesome and with a TrackIR everything is really smooth.

 

A 1080p would get you 1920x1280 which is quite a jump in resolution, but really for 32 inches I'm not sure if it's worth a fuss...

 

In your case though, you'll be stepping down. But do this: before you start a fight, set your 23" to 1024x768 and just play for an hour. If it drives you crazy, then you have your answer.

1280x720p on a 30 Inch Array is gonna have a seriously high Dot Pitch.

If it was me it would swap it out. The price difference is not enough to not have a 1080p panel.

 

It will make a difference. Perhaps not for TV watching but as a computer monitor there really is a difference between the two resolutions on a monitor of that size.

 

As far as monitors that you would use for a desktop there is a reason you dont find any monitors at that resolution on anything under about 18".

I gave it a try and out did look pretty good although the text on the a10's hud and mfcd's were blurry. Fortunatly the shop had advertised it as a 1080p tv when it clearly wasn't. I took it back and for £10 more I now have a 1080p led tv which if far far better. The display is crystal clear now and everything can be read very clearly and looks fantastic. I'm so glad I changed it.

False advertising.. should of been free..

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Yep 10 pounds more. I think it was about £270 in total. I haven't loaded dcs up yet but i've been playing DayZ and it's fantastic.

 

How is DCS on the 1080p? I'm considering new hw myself.

Small world eh. Where abouts? Dcs is brilliant in 32 inch hd, I would post up a photo but I'm in the middle of building a new desk and warthog mount. Santa (the wife) was very kind to me this year!

I'm looking to get new PC and monitor, and am in the 'research' phase. 32" is a bit much for the space I've got in mind (24" maybe better) but I just am intrigued to know if the 1080 pixel pitch at 32" is an issue
