New Monitor

Name: Anonymous 2006-01-09 22:13

I'm looking for a nice big, new CRT (Aperture Grille) for my new computer.
I intend it to play movies/games on.
This is what I have in mind (I hope its new):
http://www.baber.com/monitors/sony_gdmf520_crt.htm
Can anyone recommend me a different/better one if they still make it, or will this thing do okay?

- At least 18-19" viewable size (I'm upgrading from a 5 year old 17")
- Aperture Grille CRT Type (I don't care for shadow masks)
- Aperture/Stripe Dot Pitch of .24 or less
- A Good resolution/refresh rate (2048 x 1536? Do people use this?)
I don't care about the case color or price as much as I want a new monitor that will last at least a couple of years, sadly good CRTs are becoming increasing harder to find brand-new. I'll try to leave myself open to an LCD if it is on par with what I want here in terms of quality and size. Thank you.

I got me a widescreen 24" Dell LCD, and it's one of the best things I've ever bought - sharp, very, very bright (1000:1), awesome colours, no noticable ghosting in games and great for movies. The price is quite nice too, in comparison with similar screens.

They have the 30"s out now, yummy.

Well, I guess I'll look into it...Thank you.
Any particular model number to search for?

No particular models really. for games and movies get a CRT w aperture grille. There a minor differences between all of them but it wont matter unless you are into graphic design or publishing etc. Their only drawback is their size and weight nowadays. larger CRTs 21" and up can weigh as much a 80lbs so I hope you have a good desk

I doubt it's brighter than Philips' CRTs.

How about latency when dragging windows around? I still have to see a TFT that doesn't show horrible artifacts here.
