Refresh Rate? Amazon clams 120hz but manual states that it is only 60hz does anyone know what it is? Manual from this locationhttp://www.curtcoint.com/item.asp?itemnmbr=PLCD5092A

Kmart also lists this at 120Hz, while TigerDirect shows it at 60Hz. Early deal sights point to TigerDirect and advertise it as 120Hz. I saw a blog which advertised it as 120Hz. This is all over the board. The manual is probably the most correct however.

Amazon is wrong. Other sites has this @ 60. If you do a search on the LCD it will say 60Hz

It's a monitor not a HDTV. There is no refresh rate. Response time is 5ms(GTG), which is somewhat equal to 240HZ refresh rate.

Hi G.Thomas, Please take a look at this link: http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/tv-video/televisions/lcd-tv/LN52B630N1FXZA/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=forum and click on question "my set says 60hz in upper left hand corner i though the set was a 120hz is there some way to do it? thank you " As the guy explains: A: That's a great question. The processor on the Samsung 120Hz/240Hz units will always display at their respective Hz. Even when the signal is only being transmitted at 60Hz, it will always display at 120Hz/240Hz since the processor is always upconverting the signal. Activating the Auto Motion Plus feature will allow for judder reduction and blurring reduction, depending on what settings you activate. This will enhance your 120Hz/240Hz viewing. The reason you are seeing the 60Hz in the info box is because the info box only displays the signal's actual Hz and screen resolution and not the info of the picture on the screen after the TV processes it. Meaning that the 60Hz you are seeing is the signals actual Hz and not the screen's Hz. Currently there is no way to display the screen's Hz in the info box. -MrSamsung So as long as you have automotion turned on you are getting the full capability of the tv. It does not have anything to do with what signal you are getting from dish.

Ramneek, This is a 120 Hz 'refresh' rate set. It is stated in 'Product Description' paragraph. The 60Hz you saw was for the power source as would be the case for all products sold for U.S. use.

If you buy it from me I'll give you the USA native AC/DC adapter and cables. No, these are not capable of running at 120Hz, they're native to just 60Hz @ 2560x1440p resolution.

I currently run on 1080P, 60Hz. This card is a waste on that resolution. Now if you are going to overclock or run 120/144 Hz then this monitor kicks serious butt! My 144Hz monitors are now ordered so I will input after using them. Will be upping to 1440P once the ASUS ROG 120Hz monitor drops.

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.

Previous answer is wrong. The refresh rate is 60 Hz. 1920 x 1080 is preferred because the resolution lines up with the pixels. If the font, etc., is too small, Windoze can adjust itself for you. There is not another refresh rate available with this resolution. The power adapter may well support 50Hz, but that is a whole different thing. Nice monitor. I really like mine.

No-the refresh rate is 240hz, not the power used. I don't know the difference, but 240 RR is better than 120RR.

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

Let me put it this way....Electricity in the USA is 60Hz. When you turn a light on, it actually has a flickering power. DO you see light bulbs flickering on and off? OF course not. The human eye see's 60Hz as "always on". So then what does 120Hz do? It may clear up video a little, but nothing more, and your results may vary. (Everyone's eyes are different). So enter 240 Hz. .... YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY DIFFERENCE FROM 120 TO 240hz. Period. It is so far beyond the human visual capacity its not funny. So 240 Hz is a MARKETING GIMMIC to charge you more.

No clue. I bought the 46" version and it is 60Hz only. The 55" apparently is 120Hz, at least according to the specs. I doubt the refresh rate is selectable

Yes, it's limited to the usual 60Hz. With modern monitors that's just fine. Modern LCD screens do not have the laser sweep of old CRT screens, so you won't need to change your refresh rate to desynchronize from your overhead lights anymore. (And if you're going significantly over that in games, you're just wasting power, so vsync would make more sense in anything that exceeds this rate.)

Its the refresh rate. I own this TV and the TV I used to have was 120hz. I was weary about getting the 60hz but the price was unbeatable for this one and I see absolutly no difference from 120hz

Hi friend,I have the device applicable for 60Hz.If you need,please leave me a message while buying.This message is very important.Have a nice day!Best Regards

You are exactly right. Information posted by many customers re: 120HZ on this set is often incorrect and oftentimes the manufacturers themselves do not make the specs clear (carefully read the 120hz info on the new LG Scarlet for a good example - the 120hz info is buried re: availability on different sizes). I would appreciate it if Amazon would correct this chart to help purchasers make more informed decisions and to maintain a higher standard than other websites. Thanks for your post -

I would think that it's 60hz because of the super low response time. Most of your new HDTV's have at least a 120 and in some cases 240hz refresh rate which is what makes their response times anywhere from 10-18 ms. Doesn't seem like a lot until you play on a BENQ which has a 1 ms response time.
