High end LCD will ALWAYS beat a crtfag display.

>what is OLED
>>
>>107237345
Oled sucks for 7th generation gaming. This is my 7th generation room. No OLED tv is made at a resolution of 720 to 1080p, there all 4k or 8k, and because of that running games that were made at 480, or 720p will look like absolute SHIT even with upscaling, thats why I chose a 1080p LCD high end bravia tv, because its the perfect middleground for playing 480p and 720p media(Orginial Xbox games look extremely good for being upscaled, even beating the wii in my opinion which also has the same resolution). Whil still supporting 1080p

For 7th gen you get a 1080p, (actually) 60Hz Plasma.

NTA but that's what I have, I only wish I got the one year later model since that one uses less power and runs without cooling fans (the noise is annoying).

makes me wonder if you can install noctua fans in these. wouldn't even be the dumbest fan mod I've done.

LCD has bad motion clarity.
SED/FED would have been great. Maybe some day they will try again.

This is fine because you NEVER noticed this until you were directly told and even under a scope its hard to see because your brain fills in the picture. Its literally impossible to notice unless you are up extremely close all the way looking point blank with a magnifying glass. Its why you never knew such a thing was a problem until you researched it and even those videos had to use enchament effects just so you could see it.
>>
>>107238018
tell me you've never seen a crt in real life without telling me
>>
>>107238070
notice how you didn't disagree with me making the assumption that you never noticed that LCDS motion clarity was worse without being directly told.
Yes I have a top of the lien Power mac G4 CRT monitor, and a shit ton more in storage and can tell you that most LCD monitors you can find a microcenter look better.
>>
>>107238018
>impossible to notice
what?
the moment you look or move around in a 3d game on a lcd screen, your vision gets its head kicked in. even 2d games like red alert where you scroll around the map is atrocious, maybe even more so.

this is the benchmark for me, can you read the number? https://www.testufo.com/photo#pps=2400

on a 60hz lcd this is impossible, while on a 60hz crt it's easily done. 180hz lcd gets a bit better. maybe 480hz makes it possible, i don't know.
>>
>>107238116
I can literally read the numbers just fine. the only reason I cant go higher is because its hard to read moving objects.
but also did you have these opinions BEFORE you watched someone else explain this to you? Because I can bet everything that you did not.
>>
>>107238113
not the same person, but i doubt there's anyone on earth you can't tell, it's painfully obvious. people only put up with it to get the other benefits of lcd's (thinner, lighter, larger screen, etc). but motion clarity? fuck no, they took over in offices and laptops for other reasons and eventually people just didn't have the option of a crt anymore
>>
>>107238204
>its hard to read moving objects.
yes... on lcd's... that's the point.
>>
>>107238210
Well even if it did have perfect motion clarity reading text at that speed would still be hard if you were not actively looking.
I don't think there is THAT many examples where its a issue and again for stuff that is not text your brain fills in the gaps.
>>
>>107238234
I never really notice its a problem with LCD because your brain fills in the gaps of it.
>>
>>107238234
your brain can't un-blur motion blur caused by sample and hold. i'm not sure you even understand what we're talking about, hence i stated i'm not sure you've seen something scrolling or moving on a crt screen

>>107238245
I mean besides playing games I don't really actively look at motion blur tests online.

>>107238018
No actually it's very noticable if you've ever seen smooth scrolling on a CRT and then on an LCD.
>>
>>107238276
if you mainly look at static images, then it won't matter for you. like office machines. i'm not going as far as saying to get a crt so your mouse cursor doesn't blur if you follow it
>>
>>107238204
180hz no way.
do you even know what number i'm talking about?
Q-52 on the red 'buoy'.

>>107238362
sure, and that was the main selling point for lcds. perfect for office work. but for interactive content crt's are still the best there are. fighter pilot simulators still mostly use crt projectors because crt is fast enough to mimic the real world the closest.
>>
>>107238116
>even 2d games like red alert where you scroll around the map is atrocious, maybe even more so.
full screen 2d scrolling is ass on an lcd. in other games like racing games maybe you won't care if things blur as they go past, modern games might even add more blur to it themselves, but if you're scrolling and need to actually see what's around at the same time, it's ass
>>
>>107238313
Op here, I play games not test all day but sure lets play into your fantasy.

I one of the type of people to like motion blur to a extent. I find that most games under CRT have this unrealistic HYPER eagle hawk eyed view in motion that just does not look realistic at all even with motion blur. Most Hollywood film crews don't get high clarity cameras because of this very reason. And in a multiplayer game it really does not matter because the core content is still in its position on the screen just blurred, and your brain recognizes the image in the same time, but the time it takes to PROCESS that information and REALLY look at it the image would have it completely on the offside of the screen by then if it was sitll in motion CRT or not.

>>107238395
I did not notice that even with it slowed down to the lowest option. Im not European so like their architecture is foreign to me I did not reconize it.

You said the 2400 test right? I can see it just fine at that. At 2800 its kinda harder and I can only read "q32" which is wrong. going just a bit faster at 2850 I can only read the Q.

But like if the best example you got is that crts better because you can read a small moving piece of text at extremely high speeds and this negates all the obvious downsides than like Im going to have to disagree with you there. I don't use CRTS at all in my house anymore though even if I did because I have 2 dogs and I don't want there ears to hurt
>>
>>107238309
You're not really interacting with the screen itself with those Panasonics, just don't play with the ribbon cables.

What happened to this tech? Was Ionized Gas too dangerous?
>>
>>107238515
The actual plasma screen is on the other side between the glass front and the aluminum back you see in that picture.
>>
>>107238553
Replaced by OLED. Similar but less downsides.
>>
I got a mini LED monitor currently and weridly enough they say they can have true blacks but out of the box the monitor can not produce true black colors. Once you enable HDR though in most games(Or in red dead 2 you have to enable steams HDR mode in steamos and then disable HDR in red dead 2) than my monitor can display true blacks. It looks a bit off but also looks ALOT better.
>>
>>107238493
the main selling point for crt is motion clarity. which means there is zero difference between having an object on your screen static, or when it starts moving. exacty how it is in real life.

with lcd/oled there is always a 'switch' between the object being static and it moving. but you're right, most people don't care. just like most people are content with their $20 earbuds.

i'm just saying there are people out there that do care. and having an interactive world (game) be visually far closer to reality, is worth getting a crt for. the beeping? maybe if you have old tv's. most crt monitors never had that whine.
>>
>>107238300
Motherfucking nice. Sadly I can't find any online literature for this, but the service manuals do say they use 80x80x25 fans, though with some lolrandom industry connector I don't recognize. Maybe I'll do this one day. I'd need to do crap like measure proper voltages the fans run at and shit like that.

>>107238309
>because of how fragile screens or are my horriable luck
Panasonic plasmas have super thick glass panels in them and weigh 20-30kg. They are anything but fragile.
I'd be more worried about accidentally touching the HV transformer. Did that once accidentally, not fun.
>>
>>107238615
K, im sorry for being smug and arrogant before I thought crt people generally thought the image quailty was 100% better always. I didn't understand that part. I still think getting a LCD for my 6-7-semi8th generation gaming room was the right move but for pro gaming I might pick up a CRT
>>
>>107238574
>Similar but less downsides.

Exact same downsides: image retention.
>>
>>107238738
Power usage, size/thickness, manufacture cost, etc. As I said, they also have similar downsides, like burn-in and image retention.

Absolute bullshit, I have a 240Hz AOC panel to compare to my 2003 ImageQuest and the difference is night and day. I took photos at 60 and 80Hz with matched shutter speeds and it beats the IPS panel every time. CRTs simply have perfect clarity due to a lack of sample and hold and no input lag to speak of that makes playing games at sub-60 FPS actually fine like it once was.

HD is a LCD thing.

UHD is a OLED thing. The most peak way to play a 1080p piece of content and ESPECIALLY 720p and 480p is with a HD lcd TV, the upscaling will make it look like DIRT on a 4k OLED ESPECIALLY in motion. for 480p content(Og xbox) it will look even worse.

>>
I've been on 1080p IPS forever and will probably never leave it for gaming. It just werks.

The contrast and backlight bleed yea it isn't as deep and dark as OLED, but its a slight tradeoff for reliability and longevity. IPS these days dont have that bad of backlight bleed. I mean its slightly noticeable the grey but its not a deal breaker.

My IPS monitor from pixio I bought for $40 at a garage sale, been using it for almost 3.5 years now and it will probaby last 8 more years at least.
It has 144hz, freesync, 110% SRGB so great colors on par with OLED. I think the colors and saturation on this monitor look better than my OLED pixel phone screen.
>>
>>107255006
Smartphone OLED panels all use PWM to dim the backlight. Nearly all TV and most computer OLED panels use DC dimming. There's a slight dip in measured brightness that's unrelated to pwm and is not known to cause issues in those who suffer from flicker. In terms of motion clarity, oled panels have vastly more potential because they are so fast.

Actually might be the single best edge lit IPS LCD TV I've ever seen, probably because that was high end back then and the tech has been relegated to cheap shit now so it all sucks ass.

The OLED self destruction is at a far higher rate on big pixel panels like on TVs and monitors vs. smartphones. All TVs these days use the same off-the-shell panels from the same manufacturer, AUOptronics, only the driving circuitry is then designed by Panasonic, Sony, LG etc. Modern 3rd gen TDAF OLEDs used in TVs and monitors have LT50 of 50000-70000 hours at 300cd/m2 (limited by the blue diode). Plasma panels' phosphors had LT50 of 120000 hours at max luminance of 500cd/m2.

Probably not that deadly. High frequencies run over skin and fuck off.
I once rested my left hand on a grounded cabinet and stuck a screwdriver held in my right hand on L3 screw terminal. The screwdriver had a wood handle and some metal on the handle which I happened to touch as well.
Very strange sensation 230VAC 50Hz. Somehow, I live. Also I can say I stole electricity in the dumbest way possible, because my meter was after this terminal.

Samsung and LG both manufacture their own panels. They are literally the only ones doing panels.

Most of the big 7th gen games support 3DTV. It's kinda cool. Especially on PS3 that spawned 2 franchises worth of Sony Bravia advertisements.
Plasma of course has the dogshit version of 3D that causes headaches (and when it does not it just sucks ass)
But yes outside of that, plasma's better but so is an HD CRT at that point.

And what do you think happens to the textures when you run the game at a higher resolution? You think they just magically increase to the size? Playing 480p or 720p games at 4k or 1440p shows OBVIOUS texture streatching and creates a image that looks worse than the original resolution
