100%, get a 120hz or better monitor. Once you do it you'll never go back, especially if you play FPS games like COD.

If you want minimum input lag, you need to go ahead and get a monitor. If you do get a TV, you have to do your research and specifically find one that is geared around gaming. There are a lot of resources/Youtube videos/forums online that have info on pretty much any model TV you can think of that will let you know if the set is good or bad for gaming.

Good luck

• What games you usually play
• Gaming monitors are pretty legit if you desire certain framerate for competitive shooters
• If you are not PC gaming, you might as well just get a 40 something inch TV with 4K since some of them actually have 60-120 framerate
• Gaming monitors you need to be weary of input delay (1 to 3ms>>>>>>>>>>>anything higher)

Apex, FIFA , 2k, Elden Ring, GOW.. it dont matter really.. i notice the input lag playing fifa/apex mostly as those are the games im pretty good at.. the more competetive the match the more i notice lil shyts that i think trace back to my TV.. also play wired connection. I think my samsung TV only had 60hz refresh rate that may be the big outlier

if your using a game console just get a better tv... maybe there's something in the settings you can change to reduce the lag. its funny i only heard of lag with PC games... not consoles... or maybe its the new age smart tv's idk..

No lag

Night and day difference on monitor. Smooth as butter, no lag. Even with these new tvs with ALLM the difference is highly noticeable.

If you want to get a tv that performs as well as a gaming monitor you're going to be spending $$$.

I had my Series S on a tv the other week and am so happy to go back to my monitor. Games feel brand new like they got a frames patch.
