Are there any TVs that will run games at 120Hz?

I'm curious if there are any 32"+ TVs that will allow me to game at 120Hz @ 1920 x 1080.

Thanks in advance.
 
As far as I know, 120Hz/240Hz/480 etc TVs are still only taking a 60Hz signal (?). If not, then you can set your output to 1080p 120Hz and Bob's your uncle. Otherwise you'd be outputting (max) 60FPS and the remaining frames would be interpolated.

Regardless, any TV that would do frame doubling on any other source will do it for PC.
Whether it'll actually take a 120Hz input I don't know. If you're bored I'd fire off a copy paste email to Sharp/Pana/Sony/Tosh/Samsung/LG and friends and ask which if any models will take 120Hz> input.
 
IIRC if any do it would be the Mitsubishi DLP's

That's a good suggestion. I called Samsung and the lady told me that any of the 6000 series or above will accept and display 120Hz signal if my PC sends it.

Anyone have experience with this?
