Bullshit!
CRTs died out in the early 2000s because CRT are just utter garbage for non moving stuff such as Web Browsing.
I remember the switch from my 19" CRT to my first 15 or 17" TFT and it was amazing, the written words on the screen were so clear, as it was never before.
THAT was the reason why CRTs died out!
and those things were total garbage for gaming, had 25ms Reaction times, some good ones were at 16ms at best.
and even those pieces of shit beat CRT, because the CRTs were always not that sharp and clear as a TFT.
Oh and when someone said I had a shit CRT: yes, before the 19".
The 19" was an Iiyama A901HT aka Vision Master PRO 450. Back in the day, they were pretty good for the money. Had a Diamondtron NF (similar to Trinitron just not from Sony but Mitsubishi)
With the usual Problems of that CRT thing: two slightly visible lines at the top and buttom, somewhere around 20-30% of the screen.
partially. The Reaction time works a bit differently in CRTs. Its technically <5ms for a good CRT, but the REFRESH RATE makes the change seem slower in practice.
And I too had a Mitsubishi Diamontron 21"
And what really pisses me off about those "CRT are amazing" in 2019 videos is that they use some 3000€ CRT and compare that to something we have right now.
That things was fucking God-tier at the time
Naa, its because TFT and CRT work completely differently
but I don't know if TFT is really a good technology, personally I'd say its not.
Like all things, it is better at some things than others
And by the way: the claim that CRT consume more Power is a lie.
it depends on what you compare the CRT to what TFT
we have to make sacrifices to the center
in some cases the TFT can gobble 120W (and that's only a 24" one!) and the CRT can be far lesser than that
We can and do have a split between normal and Gaming Monitors, so its entirely possible to do that.
the Problem is that both are TFT (mostly IPS with some VA as well).
TFT was the cheaper tech I believe
At the time TFT were more expensive
because CRT had little to no electronics
And they were new
But long term it was destined to be cheaper
They fixed some Problems at the cost of other
just because of the lack of things like copper
I still have an old ass Samsung gaming widescreen that has a 2MS
i even went through the trouble of replacing the power supply when it burnt out
You don#t happen to have a PSU for a samsung S27D850T, do you?
Not that model sdly
I was lucky to find one for this
Got it in an auction lot
If you're in the US you can just order a PSU
and it wasnt the EXACT model, so I had to cut part of the steel frame to make it fit
