I bought a 32 inch Dynex a couple days ago and it looks great for the most part. It doesn't so well in dark areas though, in COD4 when I go into dark rooms there is some ugly ghosting and blur. I've tried messing with the brightness but it doesn't really do much rather than mess the other colors up.

Try clotheslining your TV.

It seems in the general opinion that 60hz refresh rate TV's in general give you the blur, the cheapest I can find a 120hz is at $450 which is a 200 dollar jump :(konichiwa21

If buy this Samsung, i'm going to have to use a VGA cable instead of component. konichiwa21

me too, and no ghosting. that's because my LG, for example, has 4ms response time. i can notice ghosting (wich makes my head hurt after playing a while) on my older LCD monitor, wich has 20ms response time. it's the time that it takes from the pixels to go from black to white, and then black again. when it's slow, it causes blurring/ghosting.

I can't find the response time on the samsung I linked.konichiwa21

response time for Samsung LN32C350 is 8ms. it should be just fine for gaming.

Buy a plasma and you will not have ghosting as refresh rates are near instantaneous. 120/240 Hz processing was added to LCD to help counter the lag effect with processing.rastan

LG actually uses quality parts. Brands like Dynex are old/low quality parts.

120/240 Hz processing was added to LCD to help counter the lag effect with processing.rastan

even if the LCD TV would have 1000Hz refresh rate, it would blur if it has slow response time. it also doesn't affect the lag caused by processing at all, wich is completely another thing not related to image quality, but to the delay of input when gaming.

LCD panel should have 1,67ms response time to perfectly keep up with every frame @ 120Hz refresh rate.

I'm finding that the Dynex I have has a 8.5 ms response time, so not really a big jump there.konichiwa21

doesn't sound very accurate if you really have ghosting... would it be possible to try that Samsung at your home?

Well looking at best buy's website, all the big brand name 32 inch LCD's cost the same. Sony has a couple at 400, Insignia, Samsung, LG ... http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olstemplatemapper.jsp?id=pcat17080&type=page&qp=crootcategoryid%23%23-1%23%23-1~~q70726f63657373696e6774696d653a3e313930302d30312d3031~~cabcat0100000%23%230%23%23wv~~cabcat0101000%23%230%23%236e~~nf330%7C%7C33302671756f743b202d2033392671756f743b&list=y&nrp=15&sc=TVVideoSP&sp=-bestsellingsort+skuid&usc=abcat0100000 Out of all of those, the only one I found with "game mode" was Samsung's. konichiwa21

i'd go with the Samsung then.

I'd go for the Insignia plasma instead. Our local Mountain Mikes pizza has it and it looks very, very good considering the price. My sister also picked one up for her apartment and it too looks fantastic. Still hasn't had a problem with it. I can't link it to best buy because GS doesn't like best buy links, but just do a quick search on BB's website and you should find it.

A couple reviews of the Samsung mention ghosting while playing games .... :(konichiwa21

Did you look at that insignia plasma yet? Or is it too large? Check out the LG 32LD400. 32" LCD 1080p. Same price as the 720p version on best buy right now.

i noticed that deinterlacing, & upscaling tend to increase ghosting in dark scenes. do u have ur console set at its highest resolution?

an 8ms response time is nothing. Our 42" LG has that and there's no input lag or ghosting at all.

Everything over 5ms will have noticeable ghosting effect....5ms response time is the "normal" standard when it comes to gaming...

Fight ghosting? Call Ghost Hunters! lol.............I know, lame, but I couldn't resist. It was either that or Ghostbusters.

I think so. It seems everyone over reacts to response time. 8ms isn't bad at all.

DONT BUY SAMSUNG !!

i bought samsung ue46c7705 its a 3d tv but it really crap! because it so thin that when the tv gets a little warm you will have terrible bleeding !

and glouding and the screen because the back reflector inside the panel gets to close to the crystals making it a horrible to watch STAY AWAY !

from the C-series the thin model is FLAWED and you get no support they say cuote "that its by design you have to live with it we dont help you with that" then they hung up on me

NEVER MORE A SAMSUNG !!

TVs are supposed to get warm. u mad? Should've read reviews first and gone with Panasonic for 3D

Do you think it would be worth it to return the Dynex one and get this samsung for 100 more ? I don't understand what causes the ghosting and what parts more expensive TV's have to get rid of ghosting. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+32%22+Class+/+720p+/+60Hz+/+LCD+HDTV/9773985.p?id=1218170915188&skuId=9773985konichiwa21
