My TV just died.

[Exentenzed]

So as the title said, my 32" Samsung just called it the night while i was playing Gears of War 2 on my Xbox.

So do anyone have any ideas or reccommendations for a new TV?

Note:
I use my PC as a main screen for my PC, aswell as a normal TV for cable, movies and console(s).

Price Range: $500-$1000.

Anything between 32"-46" should be adequate. :)

Also; unless you find a VERY good deal somewhere i am only interested in the Model, because i will most likely buy it in norway so i can get it replaced ASAP. :)

For any suggestions, thanks. :D

What kind do you need, as in LCD, Plasma, etc.?

[HamadaLFC8]

Get Sony!!!! I've always had Sony TV's (my dad got me into them) and have never had any problems!

What happened to your Samsung? It could be a problem with the transformer, as I had a problem with that too! I got it repaired though, and everything was optimus prime again :)

LCD or LED is my preference.

Im not quite sure, i was playing GoW2 and then suddenly the screen started blacking out from the middle and out REALY fast and then slowed down as it closed upon the edges. When i turn it on i can still see the backlight coming on lighting up the screen but no image no matter what input i choose, the TV's menu wont show up either but the sound is fine. :S

Hmm... I don't think it's a transformer issue then, because when there's an issue with the transformer the television/monitor usually shows life for about 2 seconds, max, and then shuts down again.

Yea, well i belive the screen itself is ruined so :(

But what are your oppinions on the two TV's i posted? Seem like a good deal or?

I'm not sure mate, I'm not very good at comparing prices for TVs! I always have to get help on choosing them myself!

Rather uncertain myself. :(

Gah! Pulling my hair out over this, i used that TV for all my media entertainment systems, (PC, Xbox, Cable). And now all im left with is a puny little 19" for my PC because it only supports VGA. :<

Going to be a lot of Company of Heroes going the next few days it seems. :P

[chibimel]

well that sorta sucks. >.<

I dont know what options there are in Norway, but Samsung, Sony, and Sharp are my top 3 for tv's.

Vizio's pretty good, but basically Sony, Vizio, and a couple of others, you're basically paying more for the name, when there's comparable or better tvs for about the same price.

Bought my parent's a Toshiba 32" a few months ago for their room, works great.

And Ilyich is right, you basically pay for the name. I saved like $200 going for the Toshiba over a Sony of the same size and features.

[Exentenzed]

Yea i know. I myself am a big fan of LG but they still havent given me as sweet deals as I've gotten on the 2 I've linked allready. :P

If you have the money go for an LED tv they look amazing and i would imagine it is amazing on a gaming console or even a sony 3D tv. Best of luck.
