There are serious problems with certain new TVs when used as RGB monitors (if you are using a digital connection, you MAY be able to disregard the following):

I have found terrible incompatibilities between various LCD TV/Monitor units, and various video chipsets. I am currently typing using my 24" 1080 Samsung panels (2), but I have struggled sometimes to display resolutions that are supposedly compatible, but won't display correctly.

I found a free piece of software that I would recommend to ANYONE having resolution problems, incompatibilities, using multiple displays, or just someone looking for more control than available from the driver that ships with Windows or their Vid card.

It allows direct access to the chipset on the card, as well as custom/non-standard refresh rates.

This shit fixed my fucking world:
