How do I get it to work in 240hz mode? I can only get mine to work in 240aquomotion which is fake 240hz. The 240 option has a no sign next to it.

You need to set your TV's setting advance resolution to off. Then you should be able to turn 240hz on.

If you have 120Hz, you shouldn't have a problem. Were you not able to watch in 1080p ? I don't know anything about changing refresh rates.

This question was asked a few months ago, but I'm wondering if it's changed yet: is this model truly the 2.0? With 1, 2, & 3hr settings plus intermittent setting? It says it's the 2.0 model, but shows the old model. Anyone get one recently who can verify or even better, upload a pic? Thanks.

It better have the 240HZ refresh rate! That is my understanding. When this question was posted I looked at the specs from other sights including cnet which confirmed that it was 240HZ. This is supposed to be Samsung's top of the line model.

You don't need drivers for this monitor, as soon as you connect it via HDMI it should be recognized. If you want it to run at a higher refresh rate that 60 Hz you have to create a custom driver using Powerstrip. You then create a custom resolution (1920X1080) and refresh rate (I suggest 72 Hz) and create the driver. Then go into advanced display settings/monitor in Windows. Click on Properties and go to the Driver tab, then you'll see update driver option. Select Browse your computer option and select the folder containing the custom driver. Save the driver in case you have to do it again in the future. This is how I got mine to run at 72 Hz and it works perfectly...

I also have this TV. Take magic remote and move all the way to top of screen and it will inform you it is 60hz. I have wondered why. I also think this is the best tv out there. The colors and 3d,or 2d to 3d is awesome.

Yes I have it does the auto motion but for some reason on the ps3 it only shows it going at 60hz. Not sure what to do.

You have to switch to 'movie' option. Thant's how you activate "Auto Motion Plus 120Hz" feature. Read manual anyway.

Poof is dead-on correct. There is absolutely no merit to the claim that monster cables are necessary for 120Hz refresh rate. It's like claiming that 93 octane gas makes your windshield wipers work more efficiently - there's absolutely no connection. Anyone trying to sell you "mega monstrosity super-duper" cables is either deluded themselves, or trying to sell you a high profit margin product.

I have the 42" and have not had any such problems. I do not believe that there is a "60"hz mode. Since the tv is a 120 hz, there are two options. Display the same image twice, which gives a slightly laggy effect, or try to predict the next frame and display it roughly. Which gives the soap feel. 120 hz are kind of off sometimes.

Jean, I've got a 65" F8000 and I've looked thru the book and in the emanual on the TV and see nowhere does it list refresh rate. That may be a term that gets complicated when you're dealing with Smart TVs. On the Samsung website, it lists a 1200 clear motion rate and the Amazon site tech details say 240 HZ. I can find neither with the pubs that came with it. I can only say that it's a superior picture for action and movement onscreen from my layman's point of view.

There is no 240 Hz model of the 650 and there will never be for this years model at least. The next closest model to have a 240Hz is the 750 series. And between them both u may see a difference but only if you are a really connoisseur, save ur money and wait for the 240Hz next year when they improve the technology more.

Just to add, 240Hz doesn't mean it will have that weird Soap Opera Effect, that is just the way some big brands process their video with 120Hz and up sets... this one seems very smooth without that lousy effect, I love it!

Mine did not. I was lucky to see 120hz. Installations do vary but in my opinion the drivers are just too small to do LF well.

Dear Arch, Thank you so much for your inquiry. The Monster Cable Black Platinum HDMI cable most definitely will handle a 240Hz refresh rate. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

Wow, the same thing happened to me, and yes, it is in the manual! Hold the tuning "up" (+) button while turning on the power, and it will switch from the European (9kHz) to the U.S. (10 kHz), which sets it back to 580, 590, 600, etc., rather than the off numbers. Best 10 minutes I ever spent on the internets!

TV and movies aren't recorded or displayed in anything higher than 60hz would cover. In my opinion, the 120hz is the way to go. Just google "240hz a gimmick" to see lots of info on the matter.
