I would rather die than buy any of that shit :)

theres shittons of crt screens on german ebay tbh. just remind the seller to pack it properly, the one i bought here in the uk arrived in pieces but i got a replacement from the seller.

Get a job, retire in 50 years, play with 1000hz monitor.

rather get some more money and get some cheap 144hz one like xl2411t/xl2411z/vg248qe

xl2411t imho is one of the best, don't need to do all this lightboots horse shit and if you're smart enough to know how to put the correct colour profile out it's easy!

W2363D is great, otherwise what h8m3 says about 11T/11Z.

As I'm still researching 144Hz panels, why are you not as hyped for the VG248QE? In one of the reviews/comparisons I've read it's beating the competition in terms of input lag/reaction time by a lot.

I've never used one away from playing random games at an event but:

"Convoluted testing methodology aside, we measured just over 2ms (less than half a frame at 144Hz) of input lag on the VG248QE" (pcmonitors.info)

They went on to report less than half a frame on the 11T later.

I don't know how they actually stack up from personal experience though, so they are just numbers from a website review. I do like the overdrive control the VG248QE offers though, much better than any BenQ there.

Well the monitor is actually a lot older than I previously thought as well... but thx for the clarification.

In some posts a few months ago you were recommending the iiyama gb2488-whatever-barcode-name over the benqs unless you specifically cared about lightboost. I don't care about lightboost, would the 11t/11z now be better than the iiyama for me? or did you just not mention it in your post this time?

not trolling or w/e, just interested :D

Between the BenQ 11T/11Z and Iiyama GB2488HSU, unless you need Display Port 2.0 (Iiyama GB2488HSU, or BenQ 20Z/30T) or blur reduction then I would just go for the cheapest of the two for competitive gaming. Since using the 30T I've become more a fan of blur reduction though as it runs at 144Hz too - specifically for use in Dirty Bomb. I don't use it anywhere else.

Most of the monitors available now will perform as good as eachother in games, it's just the additional feature set that will differ and what you actually consider to be useful from them (aside from usual black/color levels).

Recommendations pretty difficult now.

alright, thanks for the reply!

I actually have the iiyama, just didn't know if there was something out there substantially better than what I have atm.

see if you can find a vg236. glossy and has one of the most accurate tn panels ever made, absolutely shits on any other high refresh rate lcd in terms of picture quality (other than s27a950d/750d and maybe fg2421.) only downside is that it's dvi only and doesn't support lightboost.

Shame you live in EU. I have a ViewSonic CRT that does 160@800×600 and 120@1024x768. Been trying. To sell on CraigsList for 35USD but no buyers.

those go for 10 euro in EU

Then thats OP's solution.

I'm still quite happy with my LG Flatron 2363D

^ get the LG, a friend of mine who used to play black ops on ESL got one back in '12 and it blew his socks off :D

I've got LG W2363D for 4 year and it rocks!

thanks for the ideas and recommendations guys, but i found someone who gives away a CRT and i will most likely pick it up !!
