Does anyone use a tv instead of a monitor?

Does anyone use a tv screen instead of a monitor? We have a 4K ultra HD Tv and it’s great on the straight roads but as soon as I drive on the windy parts I get a bit of motion sickness feeling. I’ve tried changing the graphics settings but can’t seem to quite work it out but want to use the tv rather than a monitor as I can’t seem to purchase a big monitor without having to sell a kidney to afford one! Any tips? I find this the same in ATS too

I use a big TV and only get motion sickness if I sit too close to the TV.

GOOD RULE!
Don't sit so close to the screen.
Far out, man!

I’m not sitting that close but will move it back further

Also, when I untick or tick the option full screen mode it drops out on the screen then back up (which is normal I realise) but the setting doesn’t stay how I set it. Really new to gaming so any advice is appreciated cheers 😊

the tv may have a setting called motion smoothing, interpolation, compensation or possibly soap opera effect; manufacturers call it different things. that could be what is causing the motion sickness.

Monitor or vr

I have a 32" Sony Bravia, I don't have that issue. I actually haven't had a dedicated monitor for over a decade now.

Running on a superscaled 40inch TV for the past 2 years. Never had motion sickness playing on it no matter how close I was to it.

I have 2 new TV`s and you can use a PC on them use the HDMI socket on your video card

TV will display whatever it is rated for. Most do 60FPS no problem. Very few are less than that unless they're more than 5 years.

Sounds like you should enable V-sync in the game to reduce the screen tearing.
