Hello. A little background for me: Always have been using IPS monitors and currently owner of two IPS displays: Dell U2713HM and U2913WM (former owner of U2711 and U2410). My system consist of a 4770K CPU and two GTX 780 on SLI.
Last Saturday I tried connecting my new Samsung 32F6300 HDTV which is a 32" display at 1080p. The purpose of that HDTV was mainly for gaming with the upcoming PS4 but anyway I connected my PC to the TV in PC mode and tried some games: from Crysis 3 to Battlefield 3, from Sleeping Dogs to GTA IV, Devil May Cry, NFS, Alan Wake you get the idea.
WOW! I must say. What a great experience! Don't remember the last time I was so amazed at a gaming experience. Playing at that big display (in comparison with my 27") makes a complete and absolute inmmersive feeling and because 32" is "not that big" compared to other HDTV I use it in my desk almost at the same distance that when I play games with my monitor (a little farther than when I use my monitor for working).
I was afraid of the possible pixelation being used to play at 1440p with my 27" monitor. Let me tell you that said pixelation at my distance (quite close for a 32" display) is almost unnoticiable and even if there were some the balance is in favor of the 32" HDTV because at that size there is really a night and day difference in comparison with my 27".
The HDTV is actually glossy but in a good way. I mean, not glossy like those cheap TN monitors but glossy in a sense that, for instance, when playing Battlefield 3 some explosion and water effects seem like there was actually fire and water on the display, almost real and a experience that none of my IPS monitors have given me.
In theory the way to go is my IPS 27" monitor at 1440p and blah blah blah but as an actual owner of both alternative, with all settings maxed out on my PC the gaming experience that the 32" HDTV gave me makes it the first alternative from now on to play and the 27" the second best. I never thought I would say that until I actually experienced.
WOW, WOW and WOW!
