My mate straight up gave me a TV to use as a monitor when we were discussing my first build. Just said here, have it. I'm not using it so you might as well take it. This was an unbelievably nice thing for him to do, but it does leave me with little choice for my display. It's a 1080i HDTV made by some unknown brand. And while it's perfectly servicable as a general use monitor, I'm not sure it's the best option for a gaming rig.
As I've already splashed out on a GTX 670 GPU, I'm thinking it'll be worth my while buying a proper PC monitor. Do you guys think this would offer a noticable improvement in display? Would it be significant enough to justify paying for monitor when I have this TV? As well as the cost, the other factor to consider is that this mate will likely be visiting, and he's going to be pretty pissed if he sees anything other than his TV on my desk.
