"The Samsung UNC8000 is a very good performer overall--just not as capable as Samsung's previous LCD flagships. Its "precision dimming" technology seems to improve black level performance….Color accuracy was generally good… uniformity was a weak point and video processing has a few issues we didn't see in the company's other high-end TVs."
"The Samsung’s video processing was excellent…. This set’s uniformity is the best I’ve yet seen in an edge-lit set…. I had no reservations about the Samsung’s color."
"Provided you avoid the set’s noise reduction systems as much as possible, you’ll also be seriously impressed by how sharp its pictures look when showing HD. And this sharpness holds good even during motion-packed action sequences thanks to Samsung’s latest 200Hz processing."

Refresh Rate is the most important characteristic for gaming.
Next we factor in the screen type. LCDs are the best because they have the highest resolution. Plasmas have lower resolution and are prone to "burn-in," and OLEDs have the lowest resolution.
Lastly we add our Picture Quality score to complete the picture.
