120 Hz VA is what I was going for. People's opinion is irrelevant. VA is superior due their high contrast, there is no argument there. Now whether or not the 240 Hz is bull... is subjective. It definitely makes things appear much sharper, it's inserting a black frame inbetween instead of simply doubling them, either way, it's very subjective I know, but again, my main focus for my recommendation is VA 120 Hz.
