[QUOTE="Howard, post: 154425, member: 51981"] [b]Samsung LA40M81BDX is first class[/b] Hi All, I have a 40" Samsung LA40M81BDX (thats what they call it in Australia anyway). It works perfectly with my PC at 1080p @ 60Hz via VGA. I am using just an old ATI Raedon x700 in my HTPC. I have a DVI to HDMI cable which also works well to the TV at 1080p. The only problem is that the ATI Catalyst software does detect the conversion cable but doesn't allow more than 30Hz. This is a limitation of the card/software and not the TV though. The TV just takes what it can get and works perfectly! time to upgrade the card. May as well just get one with HDMI output and avoid the hassle. The TV has 3 HDMI inputs (and incidentally looks great with Blu-rays from the PS3). I wish there was a native 1920x1080 skin for MP though. Streching a smaller one just messes with the fonts :( Cheers, Howard [/QUOTE]
