Assuming money is no object, a 48-52" tv needs to be able to be wall mounted and will be run by 2 8800's in sli. What would be the best brand and or model to look for? I have received conflicting information on using a tv for computer purposes. The games played will mostly be RTS. Thanks

tvs do not have very good resolution compared to computers monitors. You may be able to find a rare 2x 1080 resolution tv (2160?).

Two that came up on google:
56" http://www.cmo.com.tw/cmo/english/ [...] 1012111324
52" http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/0 [...] _hdtv_com/

Might not be for sell though. Regarding the 56":

Ho also said he hopes to have the screen on sale by Q3 next year with a price tag of around $10,000.

So would it be safe to say that besides those two monsters, a high end 1080p is just as good as another? As in the resolution can't get better and as long as the response time is decent?

Unless you get a 120Hz or BFI monitor, which are supposed to get rid of the motion blur present on all LCDs.
