Dont you mean 21". I dont think viewsonic made a 22".. i have a 21" viewsonic myself.
Huh. Guess mine is 21". It was sold to me as a 22" 20 years ago, but I never looked up the specs until now.Dont you mean 21". I dont think viewsonic made a 22".. i have a 21" viewsonic myself.
Very interesting thanks. What is the manufacture year on it? I gotta check the model on mine
I always interpreted people who got fussy about critical response times to be people who need to seriously get a life.These things are still sought after today by modern gamers because even the very best flat panel cannot beat the response time of a CRT.
As much as I agree with that general statement.. EVERYTHING looks better on a CRT, especially fast moving things.I always interpreted people who got fussy about critical response times to be people who need to seriously get a life.
(or quit blaming the hardware for sucking so hard. ; ) )
Definitely most people(99.99999%) don't need to care about it at all. But there are still some.I always interpreted people who got fussy about critical response times to be people who need to seriously get a life.

I used to love Descent. PIII seems newer than the game though. Pretty sure we were playing Descent on 486's and descent II on Pentium 1's. I mostly played the first one but the Second one was great too. The third was.. Well pretty different. I didn't get into it too much.Definitely most people(99.99999%) don't need to care about it at all. But there are still some.
Take anything seriously enough and eventually you will want the best of the best. Many years ago I knew a guy on a forum who'd spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours perfecting a PC to eek out the absolute best performance for Descent 2. We're talking using a dual PIII board but running win98(to get access to a specific kind of RAM), the 4-way SLI PCI voodoo cards, the works. I don't know why, but he sure had fun doing it.
I dunno about that. Back in the hey days of LAN parties I had a buddy carting his 21" 110lbs monitor around and it was just insane. I would bring a 17" just because its good enough. They take up the entire desk and they are a severe accident waiting to happen.The FW900 is the holy grail of gaming monitors. It is not 4:3 but 16:10 and 1440p.

I figured the FW900 was something a video editor would have loved.

Those things are fricken amazing. Hope he keeps it in good condition!On a similar note a buddy of mine still has a Sony WEGA crt which is like 34" I think and analog 1080P. Its a marvel.
I find CRTs too cumbersome to offset the relatively marginal increase in image quality personally.
