Hello,
Looking for some buying advice, want to buy a 49 inch 4k screen, going for a budget model. It will be used mostly for simgaming on pc and some movies from time to time.
Im looking at Sony x7000e and Samsung Mu6100, both will cost me about 500 Euros. (US models: Sony x720e, for Samsung I think its MU6300 over in the states. not 100% sure)
Currently leaning towards the Sony (good previous experiences) and it should support 1440p @ 60 hz (according to Rtings, emailed Sony Europe and they had no clue...) (Which will be better with my video card in some games, cant quite push 4k with a gtx1070) (I read online 1440p upscaled will look better then 1080p upscaled.... is this truth?)
However I worry about the Sony's poor contrast and black levels. (and am not totally sure about the 1440p60hz thing, I wont use this resolution as main but I will need to go lower then 4k for some games to get decent frames)
The smarttv platform is not interesting for me, my pc will be hooked up to the screen at all times, plenty smart there.
I went looking in the shop and both looked alright in terms of picture quality for my needs, I thought my decision would become clear by lookint at it irl but that was not the case.
Can anyone recommend me a good budget model? Why the Sony or why the Samsung?
ps: Another option for same price is LG 6300 series but that is worse as fasr as ive read with the rgbw panels etc?
