Im considering buying a 2014 Samsung PN64F8500 for $900. After reading around the internet, it seems like what I want. But what concerns me are the y sustain board issues Ive read about. Is it really that rampant of an issue, or like any electronics, just this particular models weakness?
 
I went from owning 4 Kuros, both 8th and 9th gen to owning Panasonic plasmas. I have a 65" vt30 which to my eyes outperforms all of the Kuros i have owned. I owned a Samsung F8500 for a couple of months but never liked the picture so i sold it, it also had slight burn in. Out of all the plasmas i have owned the Panasonic looks the best. Had i known this i would have moved away from the Kuros long ago.

Also, that price way to high. Don't do it!
