Hello VG Community,
I am sad to say that my CRT TV is at the end of its life. It randomly started to turn off by itself and now does it consistently after a few hours of being on. I've decided it is time to upgrade to an LCD. However, I do not know much about what specs I should look for in a decent TV set. I've been researching features such as response time, pixel count, contrast ratio etc. and would like to reinforce my knowledge with what other members know. I tried searching for good gaming TV's (as I will mainly use it for that) but kept getting results of high-end, 50-inch, gamers' wet dream TV's in the $1000 price range. I will appreciate any advice on the matter. Please keep in mind the following:
1) I am a full-time college student living on my own so I have a limited budget. I'm willing to pay ~$500.
2) Size isn't that important to me as I live by myself. Picture quality is worth more to me. I don't mind playing on a 19 inch or so as long as it looks good.
Thanks for reading!
