TV tier list and rankings
This TV tier list ranks every model we can grade, scenario by scenario. A grade from S to F says how well the hardware handles the job, and # is its place among the models ranked for that scenario. Price is left out of every grade; Value and the current market sit on the right. Click a column to sort by it.

How to read this list
- A grade is read from the model's own specifications against a fixed rubric for the scenario. Price, availability and the models around it play no part.
- # is the model's place among the models ranked for that scenario. Gaming scenarios rank consumer cards; AI and rendering rank workstation cards too.
- Models without a current offer stay in the list: an older card is still a fair yardstick, and it is often what a used listing offers.
- Value and price come from today's offers in the United States. Sort by a scenario and Value follows that scenario's priorities.

From capability to a purchase
A grade answers "can it do the job". Whether today's price is good for what you get is a different question — the market answers it with Value under your own priorities.
Questions
What does a TV tier list show?
It ranks every TV model we can grade for each job, from S (exceptional) to F (not suitable), by reading its specifications against a fixed rubric. It shows how models compare in capability. It does not rank by price or name a best buy; for that, open the best list or the market page.
Does price affect a TV grade?
No. Grades come from specifications against a fixed rubric per scenario, so a model gets the same grade whatever it costs. Price enters only in the Value and Price columns.
What does the # next to a grade mean?
Its place among every model ranked for that scenario: by grade first, then by measured capability. Sorting by another column does not change it.
Why are models that are not for sale included?
Capability does not depend on availability. Older models stay comparable for upgrades and used listings. Choose "With current offers" to keep only what is on the market in the United States today.
