Yes I remember, thats the reason I waited so long to get one. So what is the impact on response time to hz on LCD? Its something I never quite understood at all. You seem to know a great deal about monitors.

Also in your opinion, do you think an average cost LCD is superior in quality to that of a CRT?

The last CRT I had was better in terms of speed, but not visual quality. They were both around the same price range.

The thing that especially bugs me about LCD's is how easy it is for an Image to "ghost" when moving super fast even with a very high response time. I love all the extra space and for me it seems like image quality is better. It's jsut little things between them both that bug me, but hell, nothing can be perfect lol.

BTW, I wasn't trying to start an argument or anything. xD, and sorry for throwning your psot off topic ManBearPig, did your figure anything out about your problem?

Well we can pretty much say anything while we wait for him to tell us what his make and model is because with out that we can not do much to help him...

I have not used a monitor with an initial cost below $500 for about 8 years so it is hard for me to really make a comparison.

I do own a very expensive super high end monitor that even allows for convergence and landing adjustment because it actually is professional series.

The quality of that screen(when calibrated properly) to any other crt or hdtv is a joke. It is like light and day. Once after I spent an hour resetting all the colors manually according to some test screens and programming the contrast ratio 100% correctly. I had a friend come over and I pulled up and old game and he goes "holy shit how did you manage to increase the graphics on that game! There are not even any video settings for it that you let you make it look better! Did you go out and buy another video card." I replied "No this is actually what the game is supposed to look like and it actually will look like this on any computer that has this monitor with the color set correctly."

It is not that when set wrong blue things look green it is just that when it is set correctly and on a really high quality screen the images look really vibrant and real.

One reason why I dislike lcd so much is the ghosting issue (that the black frames are supposed to fix) I want things to look they way they should. I could care less how much dam space it takes up. If a big ass heavy screen gets me better quality by even 10% for the same price I want that!

What makes me sad is that it is almost impossible to get "good" crts anymore without paying Thousands and thousands for them... because they stoped making them all

I should say that I have seen some high end LCD's and they would be the only thing I would buy and I find them enlivenment to my cheaper crt in visual quality. With the expection of the ones with the glass looking stuff. They just look sharper and I really like it!

I would only replace my $500 crt with a $900 LCD and my big $1500 crt with a $5000 crt that does not yet exist...

I paid $699.00 for my CRT and that was 2004. Its still good but its way too heavy and bulky compared to my pretty 24 inch DELL HDTV Superbright LCD monitor.

I transport 2 crt monitors with me when I came home for the summer. I can not use a lcd for longer than 4 weeks. If they were too big to fit in my car with all my stuff you bet your ass I would take 2 trips or get a trailer ect.
