A: I suggest visiting a Best Buy if you can to see and hear the difference. When I saw the difference between the Sony and LG anti-glare coating I was sold. And then listening to the sound that comes standard on the Sony -- there was no contest. The photo and video stuff they have going in the store is annoying, but if you find the right staff member, they can show you 4K YouTube videos and really see the difference. Sony video processing is remarkable.
A: Yes, I have the RTX 4090 ti founders edition graphics card connected to the Sony XR42A9OK OLED 4K HDR TV. Games are brilliant. Flight simulators are fantastic. You can do anything from watching tv, gaming, work or play, this tv does it all.
