CRT

What beauty of a monitor is this?

Sony GDM-FW900 @crimson storm better motion clarity than any modern display, sadly they're a bit rare and well... Vastly overpriced.

The better motion clarity bit is just inherent to the technology in due to how they work aka it's basically a strobed display

2304x1440p80hz is the max progressive it was rated for, but I typically just do interlacing and get 1440i@120hz.

Best monitor I've seen here, hope you were able to find it at a good price.

$1200, which may seem stupid but I sold off four other CRTs to get that money. I was into those for $85./

Then I got immediately offered 4k from someone to buy it.

I later traded for a back up unit as well; so I got a whole other chassis etc and what not for it.

Ahh, I thought so.. my dream monitor. So expensive tho. I could buy the G9 OLED for the same price

Yea unless you're a hardcore motion freak like me or love 16:10 they have been vastly surpassed in all regards by modern OLEDs (motion aside)

What games do you play on this?

Playing a darker game like a soulslike must be incredible

I do play some souls games actually, and the 1ms MPRT of the FW900 is amazing for 60hz locked games especially. I typically do interlacing on this thing however which brings me up to modern LCD refreshrates at least and well it's unbeatable in that regard with motion
