1080p LCD 40-42" for my pc

Could anyone recommend a good tv for my pc?
It is important that it has 1:1 pixel mapping over DVI or DVI to HDMI.
It would also be good if it didnt have ghosting, so that I could play computer games without getting dizzy.
My price range is below £700
Ideally I 'd like a 40" or 42" but I would consider a 37" as well.

LG 42LY95 looks like a good contender.
Any other alternatives?

According to HDTVtest

Ask around in the user forum and see if it's a real issue.

Yeah, I saw that sony for a good price too. But its a bit ugly looking.
How about the LG 42LG5000 ?
Whats the difference between that and the LG 42LY95? Can this do 1:1 pixel mapping too?
