I am a gamer so finding a larger monitor that can handle the stress of playing World of Warcraft was at the top of my list when I went searching. From everything I read, this should have fit the bill. Yea...not so much. It was absolutely awful at high resolution, pixelated to the point I actually cried. All was not lost though, I gave this to my college student son who thinks the fact it has wi-fi connections is just amazing and he thought it was the best gift ever. So, if you are looking for a great tv that you can watch streaming movies on this is a definite must. If you are looking for a monitor, buy an actual monitor.
