Look for a television with a high native resolution, progressive scan, matte screen, 240Hz refresh rate, a true LED backlit, and backlevel and brightness if you will be playing in a low light environment.
Compare those specs against brands you like to try to find a good deal.
Other things to take into consideration is viewing angle, if you have a large viewing environment, and the audio.

So aside from ppl wishing they had a new tv like me, what kind of tv is ideal?

What I've made out so far is...

LED > plasma and LCD

Aim for 120ghz or higher

1080p is a must

Samsung/sony top 2 brands

Get 50" screen or higher

Anything I'm missing?

50"+ is too much for gaming in my opinion. Your list looks good, but I'd add smart to the requirements if it was my list. A lot of people might say to just use the ps4/3 but that requires 2 things running (more heat, money and risk).

Save your money from smart and buy a chromecast

That requires you to stream from a computer, right? I haven't looked into it too much since I have a smart tv at the moment.

If u have questions bout tv's lmk. I helped several people on these forums which lead them to purchase their tv.

Just shoot me a pm with what u want it to do and such details with a budget.

I work with tv's and do professional installs


Also smart tv's give better pic quality.

Samsung 6003 non smart and Samsung 6003 smart. 1 model higher and huge difference in picture quality.
