I have a Sony Bravia TV (model kdl-32ex720)
It can do 3D, it is 1080p and 1080i capable but it only runs at 50Hz instead of 60Hz (BTW I live in Europe)
Is this good for gaming or should I buy a Monitor with a higher refresh rate?
If so, can someone recommend a budget monitor for 1080p 60+FPS gaming?
I will be gaming at somewhere between 250 to 150 cm away from the screen most probably.
 
Solution
As long as there is no screen flicker you are good to go for gaming on a TV! Test it out and if it looks good, no need to worry about the whole 60hz thing.
