Come on, when are we going to stop pretending and admit CRT is past it's time, No need for it since we got OLEDs
NEW BAD OLD GOOD
>>100191931No good OLEDs exist. They are all sample and hold trash.
>>100191931All lowres stuff like 8bit/16bit or VHS look better on them, they were not made for sharp highres screens.
>>100192078>my monitor not being sample&hold means my computer is instant suddenlyI can't wait for new cope to come when 500Hz displays become standard
CRTs used lead-imbued glass to make sure the high-energy radiation they're shooting at you doesn't leak and give you cancer. they're not coming back just to make a few thousand overpriced monitors for baby ducks to get a brief whiff of nostalgia from. sometimes when technology is gone, it's gone. the supply chains are dead, the experts in the field are dead, and the EPA would be all over your ass
>>100191931Imagine watching Porn with these
>>100191931Can't Play Duckhunt though
>>100191931CRTs def suck for modern applications, but damn do they work well for older games
>>100191931
>>100192130500hz is useless unless all your content is 500 fps.
>>100192205This kills the OLED faggots
>>100192205but i thought sample&hold was bad???
>>100192178>old applications optimized for old devices work better than on new deviceesno fucking way
>>100192141then get me a 4k oled display in 4:3 with hdr>n-nothen no deal>but you're a baby duck 4:3 is deadthere is tons of 4:3 content and I want a screen dedicated to displaying it. simple as.
>>100192205>500hz is useless unless all your content is 500 fps.Boy do I have the game for you
>>100192141>CRTs used lead-imbued glassOh no not the lead-imbued glass, not the single most inert form lead imaginable
>>100192330what do you mean "no deal"? there IS no more deal because there are no more CRTs. we reached peak CRT and will only go down in stock as boomer pass on their useless hunks of lead to ungrateful children who sell them to you on ebay only to have it destroyed because they cheaped out on shipping.
>>100191931Not all CRTs are made the same, and since most people are used to your standard def Sony trinitrons at best, really they have no clue how good a top tier crt is. I had a decent vga ViewSonic, 1600x1200, and I was satisfied. Cue a low hour 2070sb diamondtron making it to my desk, it's a whole other level of quality. The smoothness while gaming is unparalleled. For movies etc. OLED will inevitably replace my main, but I doubt we'll see the same level of smoothness a crt offers below 200hz. Sorry for generic picrel, not at my desk.
>>100192359>inert leaddo you think lead is radioactive or something?
>>100191931CRT cases are cool though since you can upgrade to a notebook display and put SFF guts inside for dat retro feel and fewer hernias lifting the thing.
I use an old CRT because:1. I have one2. It work3. I have an available port on my graphic card
>>100192373Still you can't watch good porn with that.
>>100192434It would be a waste of its limited life span. I literally use it only for games. Wreckfest looks so damn good at 108hz 1600x1200. Better than 160hz 2k on my led monitor, by a pretty big margin.
Can't wait for 525 hz displays that can simulate each scanline AND the blanking period.
>>100191931That's fine, leave the CRTs for me, thanks.
>>100192631Still why not OLED
>>100192078>muh headache inducing stroboscope is le better because uhhhhhhh stfu. you use your monitor to view static content on a forum for 20 hours a day
>>100192631I want one for anime. I have to ask; https://www.ebay.com/itm/364579237326what is something like this worth? everyone always says this is scalper central and that I need to wait for better deals. and this is way over my price. but I want to know what you guys think it should actually be.
>>100191931OLED uses PWM to control pixel brightness, which is unacceptable
>>100192335>jpgretard
>>100191931i'd pay 20k+ for an ~90 inch oled with the motion clarity of a crt.sadly it doesn't exist for probably the next 2-3 decades, if ever.crt is the only option for games.
>>100193209I am literally using a 60hz CRT to view this thread right now. I have also read several hundred chapters of a novel on this thing in the last few days.
>>100193324that's literally my point. since CRTs have low resolution, shit color gamuts, low refresh rates, the only thing they have going for them is that motion blur thingbut most people saying "sample and hold trash" aren't even doing anything where motion blur makes a difference
>>100193292They could make an OLED with CRT motion clarity now. But they won't because normies have no subjective experience so will accept anything, so manufactureres feel no need to improve things.
>>100193223If it's just for anime buy an HD wide screen locally for $50-$150. Don't mess with eBay. Using that gem for anime is a sin. I wouldn't pay 3000 for it unless I was absolutely stupid rich. I got one for $200 the other day. Rare as hell though.
>>100191931when that statement becomes true
>>100193292>crt is the only option for games.Are there 4k 24-27" CRTs with perfect blacks and motion clarity? You might have convinced mei f they exist
does a single oled exist that doesnt use pwm for pixel/subpixel brightness
>>100194959Does a single monitor exist that looks better than a 4k 240hz oled for playing modern games?
>>100195515Don't make moby mad?
>>100192178now lets see Paul Allens custom retroarch shader
>>100192411Same.
>>100192178i just like crts
