hey guys my work is putting this olevia 26" lcd tv on sale and i wanted to know if i should buy this thing for my computer monitor, it has 8ms so i think that gaming (and i play lots of CS) shouldnt be a problem but just wanted to know if anyone is using this one or has thought as to why i should/shouln't get this one or if i should wait and just upgrade to a 19" lcd of somthing better. by the way im getting the tv for like $550 after rebates with 4 yrs of service included through my work.

ok guys I bought the tv and all I can say holy crap this thing is amazing. the screen is beautiful and the ms time is >8ms so playing counterstrike was not an issue. The only thing i recommend for people looking for similar 26" setups and larger is make sure you are connecting through dvi cause the text is not the clearest when going through vga but for playing cs at 1240 x 7xx, this thing is pretty flawless. if anyone is thinking about purchaseing one, these go on sale a lot at compUSA but the thing to remember is to get the HVX model from olevia and not the HTE model cause there is a world of difference in the two. also the HVX model has 1600:1 contrast ratio and my computer is running it at 1360 x 768 and i had to do little adjustments here and there but im very happy i made the investment plus its got 4 yrs of carry in service wink.gif recommend the buy to any looking for a new computer/tv. Still got the 19" setup as well so dual monitor world is back and sweet.
