Monitor Question

[quocntran]

Hi, i was wondering something about computer monitors. Instead of buying a computer monitor, could i just get a small tv? Right now, my videocard is a fermi gtx580.


Instead of spending $319.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001431 on a 27 inch computer monitor, could i just get a 42 inch tv? for $480

This website had done some testing that seemed pretty helpful to me.

How far are you gonna sit from it ?

If it's 8 - 12 feet (10.5 optimal), get the TV
