New monitor?

by ph4ge • 28 Feb 2007, 16:10 • Journals
Just got me a nice pc, but i still have a 10 year old CRT screen (60hz lol). So I need a new monitor, I just dont know which one. Please recommend me some, budget +- 200 euro. Ronner tells me I prefer CRT, got plenty of space on my desk anyway.

What refresh do u want? I can run 100hz on r_mode 4 with my crappy dell CRT, and its fine.

TFT die more often + expensive

CRT lives forever + cheap. Get one that can handle 200 Hz @ r_mode 4 or smth. Don't has to be a new one, look for used pc stuff store?

Ofc there is huge difference
Hz's and FPS go totally hand in hand.
You can't see difference between fps 75 or 120 ingame if your monitor refresh rate is only 60hz

eh? I have the iiyama vision master pro 454 and I dont get it to 160hz @ r_mode 6 imo.. I can do 120hz @ r_mode 8 but I think it's 140 @ r_mode 6

Anyway phage. Just like I told you before and like perfo said as well, get a 2nd hand iiyama vision master pro somewhere. They are cheap that way and they are good.
