2016- Why aren't you using a CRT monitor?
this model can do 1920x1440 @75hz desktop and 1024x768 @ 152hz in FPS games.
all of that for less than £50
>>54685791
shitty sharpness and more eye fatigue...
>>54685804
not so much eye fatigue
I'm just waiting for a 2048x1536 one to show up on craigslist.
Last year I saw two 1920x1440 models and a 2048x1536 model that the owner was offering $30 for someone to take them off his hands. Hoping for another deal like that
i dont have the desk space
i also dont want to move those hefty fuckers around, my old thinkvision lcd is bad enough
>>54685823
When I go to LAN I carry it in a wheelbarrow
>>54685813
for me it was too much
>>54685820
yeah in the UK it's much easier to find high end monitors in my experience. However in the US and Canada it seems much harder
>>54685843
Because you were using a shit one
>>54685843
>>54685804
>>54685861
Because you are not using the protector!
>>54685930
What is that? does it work?
>>54685861
Maybe,
I had only LG Flatron FT775 and Eizo (can't remember which model, but looked like T966/T761)
>>54685930
I was using it, didn't helped that much.
Better was reducing brightness.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good CRT monitor under 20 inches?
>>54685947
Preventing something I don't remember, like blocking some electromagnetic waves or something.
Supposedly, you would suffer less headaches and less eye aches than if you don't use it
>>54685791
what's that keyboard?
>>54685980
well your best shot t finding one is just looking on craigslist and eby
>>54686069
noppo nano 75s
cherry reds
pbt caps
I wouldn't recommend it at the moment because it doesn't always register key presses in games
>>54685791
Because I have dual 24" LED IPS monitors
>>54685804
There is no issue with sharpness.
>>54685791
I love CRTs but I'm tired of discussing them with plebs. These threads are always full of the same autists who can't stand the idea that a 20 year old monitor might have some advantages over their consumerfag gayming rig's monitor they spent $600 on.
I have a 1920x1080 144hz 1ms monitor that I can hold in one hand, why would I want that crap?
>>54686567
Enlighten me then, what are the advantages of using crt?
>>54685791
and where do i get one?
>>54685791
Ma nigga, we got the same keyboard
I'm not poor
>>54685791 (OP)
But I do.
>>54686600
No fixed resolution (no blurry images)
Infinite contrast ratio (deep blacks)
High as fuck refresh rates
90-degree viewing angles
I have a few but I'm trying to find the biggest one I can.
Still the best monitor you can buy. Instant response time, best viewing angle, no native resolution, great blacks, etc.
>but anon they're so heavy
I don't go around moving my desktop every day, so who cares?
>>54686557
There is issue with sharpness.
All CRTs loses focus after time. Same as LCDs loses brightness.
>>54687167
what are some good CRT monitors?
do they come in 22"+ widescreen sizes?
>>54687288
The Sony GDM-FW900 is probably what you're looking for. However, those things are pretty rare to come by, and any sane person would only sell it to you on-location due to its weight. They also cost an arm and leg if you even find people selling them.
>>54687167
Did you steal that from an elementary school?
>2016
>Why aren't you using a CRT monitor?
Seems like you answered your own question
>>54686600
niggas I said I was tired of discussing this shit. Fucking google it.
CRT uses VGA connectors which everybody knows is shit, it's blurry and the higher your resolution/refresh rate, the worse it gets.
>>54685791
because I have long, static prone hair. The moment I turn on that monitor, my hair shoots out and sticks to the screen and I cant see anything.
Is it the 'we pretend it's 2000' thread?
>>54687363
Close. I bought it from public surplus for $25.
>>54687349
so you're saying that if you want a reasonably sized monitor you should stick with LCD/LED
no chance in hell I'm going back to tiny squares, especially not for double the price
>>54685804
Picture elements are not "meant" to be square, the Gaussian beam profile of a CRT is basically the ideal way of rendering pixels
>>54686600
>>54687377
Yeah nigga, maybe if you were a gullible hipster you'd know by now.
>>54685791
>2016
>wanting a screen behind a glass wall
whatever you say CRT is shit tier
>>54687403
20" is a very reasonable monitor size
>tiny square
Good luck finding a 1:1 CRT, 4:3, 5:4, and 16:10 are far more common
>>54687460
Whatever you say CRTs are great
We can both play this game.
>>54685791
>1920x1440 or 1024x768
wew, come back when it can do 4096x2160
>>54687477
If you're able to run everything at native resolution a good LCD/LED monitor is preferred. However this is rarely the case, giving CRT a slight advantage.
>>54687395
>2016
>not being bald
embrace the future, fucko
>>54687477
>20" is a very reasonable monitor size
in 2006 sure
currently running double monitors 24" and 22" and I'm seriously considering upgrading the 22" to a 24" or adding another one
and 4:3 and 5:4 are not acceptable (the "squares" I was referring to)
16:10 is ideal but 16:9 is fine too
>>54687477
enjoy your trash monitor, I spent enough time on them to know they are shit and their only acceptable use is retro computing
>>54687537
>and 4:3 and 5:4 are not acceptable (the "squares" I was referring to)
In case you're too retarded to figure this out, only 1:1 is a square aspect ratio.
>16:9 is acceptable but 4:3 and 5:4 are not
Oh you really are retarded
>>54687537
>16:9 is fine too
No. 16:9 is a shit aspect ratio for computing driven to popularity by dumbasses who get triggered by black bars when watching movies.
>>54687583
>In case you're too retarded to figure this out, only 1:1 is a square aspect ratio.
thank you we all passed high school geometry m8
this is what people who are not special like you call a hyperbole
>>16:9 is acceptable but 4:3 and 5:4 are not
do you only have a single program open on your screen?
if I can't divide it in two productive halves it's shit
also non widescreen screens are terrible for movies
>>54687643
16:10 is definitely better but 4:3 is just terrible
>>54687645
>do you only have a single program open on your screen?
Of course, why would I not use fullscreen windows? If I want more than one thing visible I have a second monitor
>also non widescreen screens are terrible for movies
Which is why you keep a widescreen monitor for movies, not rocket science here.
>>54687663
>but 4:3 is just terrible
Yet better than 16:9 and 16:10
>>54687663
4:3 was also driven by television standards, which was why it was shit. 16:10 is the only acceptable aspect ratio for use on computers.
Let the CRT meme die!!
Its 2016. Get over it already.
>>54687708
Only when LCD monitors can display non-native resolutions without looking like a steaming pile of shit.
>>54687708
>waah stop liking what I don't like
>Too large and bulky to fit anywhere
>Generates too much heat and costs to much in power
>Widescreen CRTs are impossible to find (only model I know of is the FW900 and thanks to autists that obsess over it, the asking price is usually $500+ for an obsolete POS that is approaching the end of its usable life)
>Quality IPS panels pretty much match the performance of CRTs when it comes to black levels, color reproduction and general quality, and with OLED monitors coming soon there will literally be no reason to use a CRT.
>>54687694
>If I want more than one thing visible I have a second monitor
>not having 4 programs open at once
currently have monitor 1 split between 4chan and normiebook and monitor 2 has music and a terminal I should have closed a while ago but haven't bothered to
would hate not being able to have at least 2 browsers and an extra window for music or yt or some tv show
>Yet better than 16:9 and 16:10
literally how?
what are the advantages?
>>54687700
16:10 is the best
nobody but the autist denies that
16:9 is inferior but generally alright imho though
>>54687791
>>not having 4 programs open at once
Good for you. I find such a thing unnecessary.
>literally how?
There isn't a metric buttload of wasted horizontal space.
>>54687785
>Quality IPS panels pretty much match the performance of CRTs when it comes to black levels
Not even close when it comes to black level, or motion performance for that matter. Also all LCDs suck for legacy games and such that require low resolutions.
yeeah, don't think I'd trade slightly better motion for worse contrast, screen estate, much lower PPI and resolution.
>>54687824
Thankfully OLED will get rid of that and place itself ahead of both CRT and LCD for everything your last point.
I used one for a few months a couple of years back.
It was so bulky I had barely any space left on my desk, and it had color issues that I couldn't straighten out no matter how much I fiddled with the controls.
It couldn't be helped so I switched back to LCD.
because I haven't seen an FW900 for sale in my country since 2010
>>54687399
the website publicsurplus or an actual physical auction?
>>54687880
OLED is no better than LCD when it comes to legacy gaming. The other stuff, sure.
>>54687643
What movies don't have black bars on a 16:9 screen? TV, sure. but movies are almost always wider than that anyway.
>>54687939
Physical store. They have all kinds of computer stuff lying around for sale, and some are even new.
>>54687976
Good idea. What is a good way to find such stores? I searched in my area, but just got some thrift and secondhand shops.
>>54688063
Most universities have them, and state governments also might have some. The one I usually go to is part of UC Davis.
>>54687377
Yeah it's not like this is a thread dedicated to the discussion of crt monitors. I know how to use Google you miserable faggot, sometimes it's nice to get input from other people.

>>54688388
Great post my good sir, hat's off to you. *tips fedora*
I have a 19" Dell M990, 1600x1200 with 160hz max.
Is it still worth anything? Just been sitting on a table downstairs for about a decade unused.
>>54688388
/r/technology is looking for more posters like you
Because eye cancer. I don't want eye cancer.
Also there's numerous advantages of using digital over analog (HDMI or DVI over VGA), the CRT itself is very power-inefficient, heavy, large, and subjectively I find them rather aesthetically unappealing. I desktop monitor barely has any bezel, I wouldn't have it any other way.
>>54687880
OLED has failed to deliver so far
* blue emitter half life remains under 20k hours
* poor rendering of shadow details
* can't be driven hard enough to match CRT motion
* uniformity issues (green and pink tinting)
etc
>>54685791
I'm used to a 144Hz 1440p monitor.
My 980Ti died a month ago and i actually used a CRT for a while but it gave me a headache.
The strobing is on a too low frequency, the model i had could handle 1920x1440 at 75Hz as well, might've been the same since it looks exactly the same (same brand as well).
Also the sharpness and image quality/positioning was a BITCH to get right.
The black levels were fucking GOD TIER though, we really need that on our flat monitors as well...
>>54686220
Enjoy your lag
>>54687167
And no lag

My W900 is eating shit so I'm getting a 1600SW for my workstation instead.
Is there a crt like the one in op's that I could double as a non HD console monitor?
>>54686567
hahah Couldn't agree more
>>54688530
Not worth much because it's a shadow mask.
>>54686630
I have a problem with mine when I spam adadada wbu?
>>54689608
I figured as much, didn't think it was anything SUPER high end or anything. I have dual 2560x1440 IPS for my primary desktop, so I'll be fine without it.
>>54689581
PC monitors suck for consoles because you need to go through a converter which leads to quality loss and/or latency. Good for emulation, though.
Hardcore console gamers usually use high end CRT broadcast/medical monitors, but those suck for PC use.

I am of course.
However unless it's a slow scan unit you're going to cook your eyes. It's good for a terminal though.
>>54690065
Nice looking radio you got there. Is it just for listening or do you have a license to broadcast?
Are there any modern CRT monitors that don't look like toys from the 90s?
>>54690261
>modern CRT monitors
nope
>>54690123
That's my Elecraft KX3 with PX3 panadapter. Yes I'm a licensed radio amateur with a General class license.
Not going to post my call though.

>>54690273
Can you recommend some cheap CRTs that can run at 1080p at least?
>>54685791
1600p, cost me a tenner m8
>>54685804
at those refresh rates, not too bad
75 is a tad low for desktop use on a crt though, it's a mite flickery on most computer CRTs I've used, at least it isn't 60 on a computer CRT (like looking into a strobe -- had an old iMac that I almost considered running at 640x480 because it was like 120hz, I wanted to run it at 1024x768, but 60 was murdering my eyes, ran it at 75hz (maybe it was 85hz?) at 800x600 to compromise)
152 is super fucking comfy. Picture looks rock solid and it's smooth like butter.
screen size is probably the biggest issue -- CRTs take up room, but are generally kind of small displays, you can get a pretty big LCD, and a 60hz LCD doesn't flicker and murder your eyeballs
>>54688686
this
In particular, OLED has magnificent, vibrant, and wildly inaccurate colors.
I want to like OLED, it seemed promising, but it's kind of shit as a technology as it stands now.
How does one acquire a good CRT?
>>54691789
ebay
>>54685947
Probably some kind of polarising filter. Like in 3D glasses.
>>54691789
>>54691800, and surplus/thrift stores
>>54691872
Asset clearance auctions.
>>54691800
>>54691866
>>54691872
>>54691888
Any particular models I should look out for that would be good for modern use? (High resolution/refresh rate)
There definitely seems to be a lot of junk for sale.
>>54692585
Aperture grille monitors are superior to shadow masks. If the screen is perfectly flat (i.e. not curved outward) chances are it's an aperture grille tube. If they're used, check for burn-in and other signs of wear/damage where possible.

It's a meme, the human eye can only detect lag when you're getting into the 8-12ms window, and "input lag" is significantly shorter than that.
>>54693610
Coz people like >>54693565 are idiots!

I bet you also think we can't see past 60fps
>>54693610
Game mode on TVs usually reduce the processing done by the internal scaler and deinterlacer which reduces display lag. Sometimes they also alter the colors and brightness to make the screen better for prolonged viewing. One of my TVs even displays a play-time reminder every 30 minutes.
>>54693683

I had an LG tv with a lot of input lag in which there was almost a quarter of a second between pressing the button and donkey kong jumping, I realized there was a problem because levels I had a hard time beating when looking at the tv, I could beat much more easily when looking at the Wii U gamepad which has very little input lag.
I solved the problem with gamemode, but it made the image much uglier. I ended up gifting the tv to my mother so she could watch netflix shit on it, and buying a pc monitor for videogames.

Sorry ima CRT noob but am looking at local ads and dont want to fry my already shit eyeballs
not sorry that i don't want a lego brick as a monitor
I would only have one as a nostalgia machine and nothing more
I would play like I'm in a corporate office in the year 1998 or something
>>54685791
You can't put a CRT on a laptop.

You can put an SED in a laptop, sadly it was killed off.
>>54687528
Ma nigga.
>>54695387
40-50 cm

>>54695479
It will say, most are early and suitable only for character-based displays.

I know what you did, I was laughing at you in your thread as hard as I'm laughing now. Dumbass.
>>54696758
How exactly did I screw up though?
That glass served no purpose, wasn't even coated, and provided two more air to glass interfaces for glare.
The picture is better now, better contrast, color, etc. You're just one of those pajeets who was mad that I was able to afford to casually tear into and devalue some of the "overpriced" Apple gear.
Don't you mod you stuff? I have Zeiss binoculars that I 'shaved' as well as expensive cameras which are so treated, and my Minox monocle is matted and darkened with permanent ink.
>>54696792
>Don't you mod you stuff?
Of course, but my mods don't ruin my things in the process.
>>54696806
>ruin
You still haven't explained how I ruined anything.
I in fact substantially enhanced it.
>>54696833
Look at it, it looks like you pulled it out of a fucking dumpster. Was it so difficult to just buy a matte monitor?
>>54696860
What matte monitor comes with firewire, usb, and ethernet ports onboard?
It's a good look, looks like a monitor you'd find in the Jefferies tube of an older starship.
>>54696874
Good point, but no, it looks like a monitor you pulled out of the trash and attacked with a sharpie
>>54696860
Also I tucked a piece of paper in front of the camera, can't be too careful with the iAMT / vPro botnet.
>>54696882
Except the screen is nicer to look at and the bezel is less shiny, so overall it's a better viewing experience as a monitor.
As an interior design piece it's obviously hopelessly ruined.
>>54696886
You seem to love devaluing your shit, why not just poke the camera with an awl?
>>54696910
>devaluing
Oh it just burns.
Do you constantly buy and sell your gear on eBay so you can have the newest thing?
If not who cares about 'devaluing?'
>>54696937
Of course not, but it's nice to not have all my possessions look like ass like yours apparently do. It is nice to know that my devices are in good condition should I ever choose to sell them though.
>>54685791
I might get one if it didn't fire radiation in my face, so one with similar technology as the sinclair pocket tv
>>54696974
Look at that photo of my desk, how many 'devalued' things do you see?
I have stuff on my desk that plebs will never touch.
>>54696986
They don't. Any harmful radiation is blocked by the thick leaded glass screen.
If you weren't a drooling idiot you'd know this.
>>54697000
A desk is only a small part of a man's place
>>54697039
Yes, but my point is that you can't simply say that 'apparently' I 'devalue' 'all' my possessions.
I didn't devalue the monitor either you genius.
>>54697094
>my point is that you can't simply say that 'apparently' I 'devalue' 'all' my possessions
Sure I can.
>I didn't devalue the monitor either you genius
You tore it apart and colored it with a sharpie, you definitely devalued it you moron
>>54697140
>you definitely devalued it you moron
Are you sure? Want to bet?
I don't see one worth getting besides the FW900, and those are both rare and go for $700 plus.
>>54697140
If it was pulled from the dumpster whats the harm of fucking with it? If it was in the trash there's nothing to devalue. You just seem like an angry macfag "muh artificial value"
>>54697192

Those little rectangles around the bezel have a function.

Yeah i am. Read "looks like you pulled froma dumpster" rather than he actually did. But you know what? It's still his monitor and he can do whatever the fuck he wants with it, you're just mad he defaced a poor little apple product

Given your retardation I assumed you were dumb enough to toss the glass
>>54697291

You're the idiot that thinks that I need a piece of useless glass with two air to glass interfaces for increased glare, decreased contrast, and washed out colors.

you can play 6th and 7th gen games on a PC CRT via a VGA cable and they look great, although it applies more to 6th gen since more games were in 4:3 aspect ratio, and with PS2 the games had to be 480p.
>>54697616
>and with PS2 the games had to be 480p
With the PS2 games can go up to 1080i and a lot of games that can't can be forced to
Playing games in 2048x1536 on a 20" monitor made in 1995.
I'm hoping the new Doom supports 4:3 mode so I can play it on this and allow the monitor to come full circle.
>>54697652
looks so claustrophobic compared to a proper 16:9 or 16:10 screen.
I would but my last gen crt sutdio display is scratched to shit and i cant justify a dvi to adc adapter for it because of that.
>>54697666
>proper
He has a proper monitor.
>>54697666
>proper 16:9
Anon please.
>>54697666
The camera zooms on Lara a little bit when you stop moving.
The only game I played in 4:3 which felt claustrophobic was Dark Souls. Too many enemies coming at you from the diagonals you can't see.

Input lag is less about visuals, and more about feel. Playing with lower input lag feels better, because there's less delay between what you do and what is represented on the screen. Also it gives your brain more time to process the information, just like having more frames does.

This is horse shit.
anyone have experiences with old 1080i plasma TVs? Theyre even larger than CRTs but damn they look good. Some of them are supposedly 600hz and have insane refresh rates. Does that translate through the VGA port in the back?
>>54699193
Yes I own an LG, the color gamut is amazing as is the contrast.
Putting a signal into the VGA input works great, I'm not sure about 600hz though.

We have that monitor gathering dust at the office, next to two blue LaCie ones which also have a flat surface.
Because I have a 1440p 144hz IPS Freesync™ monitor. Looks better than any CRT I've ever used and isn't a shitty meme contrast ratio that nothing supports.
>>54687791
16:10 isn't the best till they make 4k/5k monitors in the format. Currently that doesn't exist and 4k gives you more vertical and horizontal space than 1600p

My secondary monitor is a big ass cad CRT. 20" 1600x1200 at 85Hz. I'm lucky that the height matches my primary gaymer monitor perfectly. When I play retro games on it I'll do 1024x768 at 120Hz. Quake III at 120Hz insane.

Sorry your $100 chink shit monitor assembled by 9 year old isn't better than high end professional grade CRTs.
>54703628

Literally not a thing
>slow response time
4ms isn't slow, and the input lag feels nonexistent
>slow refresh rate
144hz is faster than every shitty CRT out there at the same resolution.
>fake colors
100% sRGB accuracy isn't accurate I guess
>>better than CRT
It is
>Sorry your $100 chink shit monitor assembled by 9 year old isn't better than high end professional grade CRTs.
Was $550 and it is. Sorry I don't use a shit tier low resolution square CRT. Give me a 4k/1440p CRT that isn't 19 inches and doesn't cost me 5k and I'll consider it.
Sorry you are too poor to afford a decent monitor anon.
