I'm looking to buy a visio m and was wondering if anyone had any luck with it. I basically just need a nice big tv with a decent picture that can handle 120hz piped into it from my PC and would rather not drop a grand on something like a visio p.
Also, I was lead to believe that hdmi (sub 2.0) doesn't have the bandwidth for 120hz+ refresh rates. What kind of hdmi cables are you guys using to OC TVs, if I may ask?

Re: Anyone OC a newer Visio M series?
I just bought the M502i-B1 from Best Buy [http://www.vizio.com/m502ib1.html]. I followed the OC guide (patch + CRU), but could only push my display to 61hz. Any higher and I get a black screen. I'm using a 1.4 HDMI cable so maybe that's why. Maybe I need to adjust the timings too.

I love my M651d-A2R. Does 120hz perfectly at 119.88hz refresh rate. Has minimal clouding. Took 3 attempts to get a really good one, but that's why I got it at a big box store. Has good color too once you get it set up. Out of the box its awful though. On the old firmware anyway.kgavrilov wrote:I'm looking to buy a visio m and was wondering if anyone had any luck with it.

I have dozens of hdmi cables that work at 120hz. Any high-speed or high-speed with ethernet cable under 30' should work fine. I tested a blue rigger 30' or something like that cable. Worked fine at 120hz. Had issues at like 3840x2160 at 44hz overclocked/downsampled resolution but it worked with NVIDIA's Dynamic Resolution at 4K/120hz. But that's internally scaled to 1080p/120hz so no reason why it shouldn't have worked. Hopefully I will be using it with CF 390X cards before too long, but it should be fine because I've had no real issues with CRU nor with using custom or modified drivers.
