4K TV as a PC monitor how to get the best picture quality (Settings you should tweak)

Decided to use a big-screen 4K TV as a PC monitor, but not getting good image quality, or windows scaling is too large? Then watch this video because I will show you what settings you need to tweak on your PC and TV to get the best image quality on your 4K TV that you are using as a PC monitor, this video also covers what kind of hardware you need to get at least 4K 60Hz working on a compatible 4K TV.
I am using the 50" Samsung FRAME TV and LG UH770 for demonstration but the settings are largely the same for every UHD TV in the market.

Before watching this, I am already assuming that you have connected your TV with your PC using a good quality HDMI cable, DVI or VGA will NOT work for 4K 60Hz.

This video is over 1 year old yet still applicable . Thank you Tech Guy Charlie for your time and very clear instructions for tweaking a 4K TV for the best image quality.

Dude, this video is the ONLY reason I was just able to setup my new Samsung 4k TV as a monitor without any issue!!! YOU ROCK!!! 02/18/2022

This has made such a difference to my Samsung AU9000 43" connected to my office PC with a Geforce GT1030. Before I could see dots on the screen, now it looks spot on, thanks for sharing 👍

This video is gold for me, new tv yesterday and couldn't figure out the blurry picture quality. The signal plus did it for me. Besides that, you are very good at explaining things. Overall top-notch video Sir, thank you very much.👌

Dude you rock!! You speak clearly and precisely, and you don't speak 100 words a sec; which I love. If I could give you two thumbs up I would!!

[vlholla]

This has been so informative and useful. I was able to make most of the changes and use the TV as a good monitor for the computer by following these instructions. Thanks again.

[Mjrogers]

Dude this was so helpful, thank you!! Especially covering both samsung and lg with every possible detail. Much respect!

[LiberalHindu]

You are a life saver and a legend sir....

Great video!

This has helped me a ton. Just learning about the input tag for the TV helped a lot. I had just kept it on the default this entire time. Nice setup by the way :)

So I want to THANK YOU! In 2022 this video was of help. I just got my first gaming laptop and the screen was to small for me. So I got an LG 43in 1080p TV for my needs. However after months of noticing it wasn't crisp I found this and the input tag saved the day. As soon as it was changed to PC BAM! LOOKS BEAUITFUL. Thank you friend!

I just wanted to say that this is EXACTLY what I was looking for! You are a lifesaver. I made sure to like and sub! Thanks again!

[albertchen]

Thank you so much, this is the most comprehensive TV-to-PC monitor guide I have ever seen on the whole internet. I always feel some kind of eye strain after staring at the TV after a while, the screen is too bright, the color is off, the input lag, weird motion blur, etc. Although I have a different TV, this helps me a lot, thanks again!

PS: except you, every other tech Youtuber always feels like they trying to sell me the "coolest, hippest, expensive" hardware.

This video was so helpful!! Thank you! I am using a 65 inch 4k UHD Samsung and was having trouble with terrible pixelization in game. Your information has changed the entire thing!! 4k @ 60Hz is Awesome! My little RTX 3050 is running the tv like a champion! Thank you for taking the time for this great informative video!

[shadowmich]

[SaltyLegion]

THANK So much good info in this video! So happy. I'm subbing, you deserve it. Great Vid!

[barrycrozier]

Thank you Tech guy Charlie!!! A very well done video sir. You are very well spoken and and all points you made were very clear. I just purchased my first 4k tv and was questioning my decision as the image quality has been hard to get dialed in. thanks once again for the fantastic info!

[scaredy]

the sharpness of that TV is absolutely Beautiful

[nikhilmeshram]

Thanks for the very informative video. I have one question though. I have 10th gen i5 laptop with integrated UHD graphics. but like u said in the video, HDMI port is 1.4. will I be able to get clear text with the hardware i have with 43 inches 4k TV? I understand that refresh rate will be restricted to 30 Hzs but that is fine with me as long as the text quality is not compromised. I dont play games and watch very little movies. office work and reading text is my first priority. thank you. eagerly waiting for an answer.
