Was looking for a 75 Inch TV and found the TU8000 for around the 1800 mark again on ebay, first time poster so i hope this deal is good considering the current climate.

Yeah - eBay plus required when applying the coupon code.
Bought the same TV from the last deal, similar price. I'm liking the unit more than I expected, certainly good enough for the price.
Would this TV be any good for the PS5? "100Hz" or should I wait for a true 120Hz (or above?)
You won't get more than 60Hz with this. It doesn't have HDMI 2.1 which is required for anything above 4K/60.
Would it be able to do 120Hz at 1080?
Well, kinda. But also kinda not.
Just to add some clarity here, HDMI 2.0b can support 4k @ 60z, 1440p @ 120hz and 1080p @ 240hz.
There is no way that next gen consoles will run anything decent at 4k/120fps. It's a silly goal to shoot for. But depending on the games you play, you may want one of those specs individually.
As an example, a game like Horizon Forbidden West might end up (if we're lucky) at 4k / 60fps… and it will be beautiful.
On the flip side, maybe you want to play some kind of multiplayer competitive game like Call of Fortfield or whatever… then 1440p @ 120fps will be much better than 4k @ 60fps.
In short, you DO NOT NEED HDMI 2.1 for next gen. The hardware simply can't handle 4k coupled with 120fps. Pick one.
So, it's wise to get a TV that supports HDMI 2.0b and both 4k and 120hz to handle the different style of games.
I made a new TV checklist for you:
Need:
[ ] 4K
[ ] 120hz native panel
[ ] HDMI 2.0b
Nice to have:
[ ] HDMI 2.1
Useless:
[ ] 8K
Thanks!
@0FoxGiven: Yes I’m sure. To get that resolution and FPS the “quality” of everything you care about needs to be turned down so damn far. It would be silly and purely a marketing stunt. The hardware just plain can’t handle it.
Nah, would grab a 120Hz
You'll also want a HDMI 2.1 compatible TV for next gen consoles
Thanks to everyone for the feedback, I'll wait for an ozbargain deal with HDMI 2.01 and 120Hz.
Is this price actually good?
wait till tomorrow.
Either priced get jacked or will come down to 1619
no. what you've paid is much better price :)
As usual they lock out WA, TAS, NT, not even for additional delivery fees. That's not what eBay Plus supposed to allow
