Can LED tv be good gaming alternative for screen?

[XMEN_2012]

I have 32 inch Samsung LED TV and resolution is 1300 x 768. 50Hz.

It works well for HD channels and just asking for suggestion if it can be replaced as my 18 inch monitor?

For gaming an important factor is lag. TV’s have higher input lag than monitors. How much lag depends on the specific TV, some are a lot better than others.

I want to play more FPS games and my current monitor is an old modem hence I am not able to compete in any games and literally it is frustrating.

Hmm can’t find anything on that TV. If you already have the TV why not just try it.

What if I want to go for competitive gaming, is it recommended? If now what monitor I should look for?

For competitive FPS gaming you want high Hz, 144Hz or higher. Also a high Hz TV is not the same as a high Hz monitor, they are quite different. However for high Hz you want high frame rates so make sure your system is up to it.

I have Ryzen 2600 with GTX 1060 3GB and coupled with 2*8 GB - 3000 Mhz LPR DDR 4 RAM.

I think this should be enough to get me 100* FPS in medium setting for any game.

Agree, should do that.
