TVs with NATIVE 120Hz or above Refresh Rate

[darkknightadi]

I've been a console gamer for a pretty long time and recently I have upgraded to PC.My PC Specs being i5 4590 @ 3.30GHz,8 GB RAM,GTX 1080.Now I am used to playing games on a big screen TV(47inches) in 1080p at 30FPS.But since my current PC setup allows me to play 1080p or 1440p at a much higher FPS,the logical step would be to get a display with Native 120Hz or 144Hz Refresh Rate.But the problem is that all the high refresh rate displays in the market are too small for me.I would be grateful if anyone can share a list of AFFORDABLE 1080p TVs out there(at least 47 inches) which have a TRUE 120Hz NATIVE REFRESH RATE.

I suggest you read a bit about high refresh rates TV - https://www.cnet.com/news/fake-refresh-rates-is-your-tv-really-120hz/
Seems like some of them aren't really high refresh rate.

As you already mentioned there are a lot of dangerous "fake-high-Hz-TV's" out there. The sellers name them with names like "Perfect Motion Rate" or "Clear Motion Rate" or "Motion Flow" or whatever and Hz between 200 and 2000. In fact, the most of these cheap TV's are just 50 Hz panels. The manufacturers are allowed to name the TV's with e.g. "800 Hz Ultra Motion Flow" or something else, since these numbers mean the digital Hz - they e.g. just multiply a 50 Hz panel 16 times digital = 800 Hz. These glorious sounding names are explained as digital motion rate in the small printed documents somewhere. Now they can just sell these TV's as "800 Hz" screens.

Especially the 4K market is filled with that. But since you're looking 1080p models, it shouldn't be too hard to find a real native 100 Hz TV. You've probably got your own preferences, so I recommend to look on the manufacturer's websites, make a decision and CALL THE COMPANY before you buy the device. If they ensure you that it's a native 100 Hz panel without saying stuff like "I can't give you any legally binding information." it's safe to buy the TV.
