Nice touch.

There's a glitch in the matrix.

Apparently 32-bit is dead and nobody likes P4s.
Of course, as always, I'm open to correction...😉

142Khz, 200hz, but somehow Geforce Ti4200 is able to set 240hz progressive on it..
If you know any CRT model with better horizontal and vertical rates rate let me know.. i've heard rumors that they exist

Sony Multiscan 110ES was too much of a 15" cutie to miss it:

The image is sharp all over the screen, it just faces camera at slightly indirect angle and partly goes out of focus.

And here is my EIZO F930:

Impressing, though condition is not so good.

Showed some of my earlier CRTs a few pages ago. Currently have Dell P792, NEC MultiSync FE991SB, Samsung SyncMaster 957MB and the mentioned two.

I picked up this NOS 17" VGA monitor recently, build date ~2005. There was no branding anywhere on the unit, or the box, or the documentation. Strange. I cracked it open and it's a Samsung on the inside so not top of the line, but the image it produces is amazing. I'm using it in my C64 / console corner via a Retrotink 2X -> HDMI to VGA converter -> scanline generator. It's an over-the-top setup for sure but oh my, what a beautiful image.

Nice score. Does the documentation have blank space for branding to be added? Like you'd ship to a re-seller. Any local re-sellers go bust around 2005?

No not that I can see, whoever made it (it's from China) seem to have made a concerted effort to be no-name. That makes me wonder if it'll last but I hope so, it's a really nice monitor. Heaps of options via a decent OSD and it doesn't make any annoying noises - it was squealing when it changed resolution initially but that's stopped.

Sadly, I had to say goodbye to an old friend today. My massive Mitsubishi DiamondPro 21TX went (back) into the recycle pile.

YO I had the same monitor! BNC connections and all! I had that and a 20 inch Samsung of some sort on a dual display Windows 98 setup. I sold it to a friend in 2003 or something, that thing was HEAVY.

I recall many hours playing Total Annihilation on it. Thanks for the memories!

Hi, what system did the IBM P50 (6553-503) monitor came with? Or was it a standalone monitor?
It was introduced in the middle of 1995. It should be the PC series but I can't find the exact model(s).

In the top two rows are 13-15", in the 3rd are 19 and 21" and bottom one has 17". One is Hercules and I have a few black&white VGA too. Around 7 CRTs are not shown here.

Requests are also possible... /msg kixs

So the other day a friend gave me his old crt monitor. It is a massive LG Flatron F900P. It supports resolutions up to 1600x1200 at 85Hz. This should be great for my fast Win98 PC (Tualatin 1.4S + FX5900XT) and I can't wait to go on a leave from work and play with it 😀 Last time I owned a CRT monitor was with my first PC ever, back in 1998...

That's a nice monitor and good specs. How's the picture quality?

So far I 've only tested it with a Pentium II system at 640x480 and it looked really nice. Superior image quality than my previous 15" 1024x768 lcd monitor, that's for sure.
