Does this TV have any noticable lag during video gaming? (Example: Call of Duty, Battlefield, Crysis)

Yes, there is a noticable lag if you play FPS games. I got mine last Christmas and was disappointed with the lags. I had to turned on the game mode to play borderlands and Dark Souls but it lost the picture quality by doing so.

From CNET: Update: In Game mode the Samsung showed a relatively poor input lag measurement of 107.5ms. But there's a "trick" that allows it to achieve a much more respectable lag score of 53.1ms. To use it, select an HDMI input from the Input menu, go to the Options menu in the upper-right and rename the input "PC." Doing so allows it to achieve a better lag score. Also, search for your model at this site http://www.displaylag.com/display-database/ It shows a lag time of 62ms and rates it OK. I like video game and am planning to buy this TV. I value the picture and tv/movie viewing more than the video games. I'm going to chance that this TV will be acceptable for gaming. I will reply back if input lag for gaming is a problem.

Cecilia,There is a game mode that can be selected for any of the HDMI inputs by "editing the input", and changing the option to "Game" that will greatly reduce lag usually associated with picture processing.Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

Yes,I just finished a season of nhl 14 on it. Im playing a torrent of guardians of the galaxy right now. There is no such thing as lag.its an led projector. Bulb last 2000 hours. I also have my dish network hooked up and regularly watch live sporting events and it easily rivals my 50 inch Samsung plasma TV in the same room. ...even during the day. GET IT. GET A SOUND BAR WITH A WIRELESS SUB AND YOU ARE GOOD TO GO FROM FOOTBALL TO GAMES to your PC I have had 4 projectors over the years. Perfect for the money...mine is set at 170 inches from about 10 feet away. Perfect!

Some people say there is input lag and ghosting but I do not see any. Works great for me. You need a LOT of GPU for it though. I use SLI 470's and they are starting to show their age already at 2560x1600.

Using an xbox 360 I have seen no lag. It gives a wonderful crisp image. I have mine set at 720 on gaming mode with a throw of 100 inches and my son's love to game on it.

I only played Skyrim on it, but noticed no lag as long as it was in Game mode.

That's actually what I use it for most. Games like Battlefield, Call Of Duty, Titanfall, the games with which you would notice lag the most, and I can honestly tell you I do not notice any lag. I know the lag that reviewers are speaking of when it comes to games, I also have a slightly older 50" JVC LED on which you can definitely notice lag time between control input and on-screen movement.

I haven't tried it but I would think it would cause enough lag to be noticeable. There is a clear delay between sound if we have the TV on in two rooms and don't mute one of them - it is not much but enough to echo. I would think the image is as delayed so it could cause noticeable lag on a video game. Perhaps someone who has tried it can confirm if it is an issue. From experience, the less walls or other obstacles in the way of the receiver/transmitter, probably the less lag you would encounter. My transmitter is in an equipment cabinet and the receiver is a couple of walls away from that.

I wouldn't know - I bought it to play my Wii on a computer screen. So I can't say anything about HDTVs. All I can say is that there is no lag whatsoever in my case. Sorry !

I see no ghosting when using VGA or HDMI. The only motion blurring I see occurs with composite, and that is largely because the TV's post-processing is applied bit by bit to each successive frame (which is good for reducing input lag).

Haven't experienced any, I'm using it with an Alienware 18. I have 3 monitors and haven't had any issues with lag. Make sure your graphics card has sufficient power to run this though or you may.

There is no lag going from composite(edit:component) to HDMI on the passthrough(although there might be a loss of quality. I haven't tested without it, it's been plugged in since I got it.) The capture has about 2 seconds delay.

Very minimal...If you listen to the TV speakers and the gaming chair speakers at the same time, there is a noticeable lag...but if you turn the TV speakers off and only use the gaming chair speakers, it's fine.

Hello Scott, This TB is a 600 Hz and should not have a major issue with this lag. I have not used this perticular model for gaming.

I have the 40" version. I bought this after doing a good amount of research in terms of input lag. This TV has no noticeable input lag. I came from a Toshiba 32" which had a very noticeable input lag, which is terrible when playing any game, especially FPS games- then moved to a Samsung 32" which was one of their top tier at the time. The quality is great, i put mine in "calibration" mode, and it looks a lot better than my 32" Samsung TV.
