Eurogamer did write a review about playing modern games on a (very good) CRT monitor [1]. It's better than any LCD and even OLED monitors according to them:

Very good that article.

A point not mentioned there but that is a major reason for me to use CRT: Contrast.

The contrast in most flat screens I tried is just terrible, a classic example I use is trying to play Superhot and then watch Game of Thrones right after... Superhot was everything white, so I fiddled with the controls until it was playable.

Then Game of Thrones everything was black. So I fixed it... then went back to Superhot and everything was white again.

With CRT after I adjusted it, I don't need to adjust anymore.


impressive. I'd super appreciate the image quality but it's really hard top give back the desk space to a monitor like it's 2003 again.
