Title: Is this a good television?
Post by: Myxtika1 Azn on September 30, 2007, 09:48:04 PM
Fry's is having a sale for the Empprex HD3230.  It's a 32" widescreen, and I'm wondering if it is any good for gaming.  I've never heard of the Emprex brand before, and a search on cnet yielded no results.  The price for the set is $397, which makes me more cautious about getting it.  Can a HDTV be any good at that price?

Can any tech savvy people offer their advice please.  If it is any good, I would like to get one before the sale ends.

Thanks!

Found a thread on it here:

Personally, when it comes to gaming I like to see a high refresh rate. LCDs aren't known for that. But then again this is a bargain tv and if you want a HD tv then this sounds like a deal. Reading through some posts it seems to be a hit or miss with the brand. Opt for the 2 year warranty.

Fry's probably owns the brandname and just has some parts from another brand stuffed in. Just like how Walmarts dogfood is really Purina. Name counts for alot.

I dunno. That tv doesn't seem to ahve any wheels so it'll be hard to move intot he dining room when you want to watch the news while eating dinner. Although it IS in colour so that is good.
