I do use 720p for gaming,

Submitted by JDOGG85 on Fri, 08/10/2007 - 1:36pm.

I do use 720p for gaming, but tend to switch to 1080i for movies...I have tried comparing the 2 when viewing movies but the difference isn't very noticeable to me. From what I have read though movies can look better in 1080i than 720p and games just the opposite. So I've chosen to just do movies in 1080i and then in 720p to try and figure out the difference or if there even is one on my tv. I would probably guess that neither make much of a difference on mine since it is only 32inches and westinghouse branded.

I'm not looking to upgrade to 1080p anytime soon, just was curious what the difference is in the two. I assumed that since I believe 1080p only starts at around 40-42in tv's then I would have to wait it out until someday down the road.
