"Motion blur" as you've described it is something that's unavoidable. Any object passing across your field of view at more than about three degrees per second is going to be perceived as blurry. That is a limitation of human sight, and no monitor technology is going to be able to overcome it. Response time is the amount of time it takes for the pixels of a display to complete a state change. The best, fastest LCDs have response times measured in milliseconds. CRTs have less lag, although it depends on the persistence of the phosphor used in the tube. (Some old CRTs with long-persistence phosphors have lag measured in seconds.) OLEDs are faster still; the tech itself is capable of response times in the microseconds--far faster than CRT or LCD and waaaaay faster than our eyes could perceive. By "memory buffer" I'm assuming you're talking about a frame buffer. They absolutely existed back in the days of the CRT. What do you think the computer is holding in its VRAM? Sure, a CRT is an analog device, but the information in the video card's frame buffer is still digital. It gets converted to analog signals by the card's onboard DAC before it's sent to the monitor. A modern flat-panel monitor is driven in a very similar manner: It still receives horizontal and vertical sync data, as well as RGB color values for each pixel. They just happen to be sent as a bitstream instead of analog voltages. CRT monitors with DVI/HDMI inputs receive the exact same signal as flat-panels. I myself am a CRT fanboy. I have a ton of them connected to computers and game consoles of various vintages from the 70s through the 90s. And I agree that they do look better in those applications, particularly game consoles from that era. But I wouldn't want to use one with a modern PC or console. For one, VGA is finally dead. In order to connect a CRT to a modern graphics card, you'd need to use a converter. And it's gonna insert at least as much input lag as there would be with a flat panel display, maybe more. For another, most CRTs are 4:3 while nearly every newer game is 16:9 or wider. That means letterboxes eating into your field of view. Given that the largest CRT monitor you're likely to find is 21", you don't have all that much room to begin with. Flat panels can get much bigger than CRTs without weighing a ton or needing any more space behind them.
@GTXDash7 күн бұрын
I agree with a lot of the stuff you mention. There's just a few things that don't line up with my research and experiance with the technology. For me, when I look at something moving, I don't see motion blur. When you compare a flat panel to a CRT, both running at let's say 120Hz, It's not subtle, It's extremely different. One has motion blur, the other does not. It's not any more subjective than someone saying that 120fps isn't better than 60fps. it's physically measurable and not effected much by opinion. So, concerning the display's frame buffer, I'm not talking about the GPU's VRAM. If a digital signal is sent to a monitor, the frame has to be stored in the monitor in its entirety and only then it can be drawn to the display. A CRT monitor that doesn't have a frame buffer, starts drawing the image before the whole image is sent to the CRT. It doesn't have to wait for the whole image to be sent. A converter may add a tiny amount of lag or a lot of lag, depending on the converter. This is why I recommended a cheap HDMI to VGA adapter because that thing is so cheap, it doesn't have a computing processor to do the conversion but just uses a basic DAC that spits out an analog signal as it simultaneously receives the digital. It's kinda like how using an expensive TV can add more lag than an older LCD TV from 2008, because of smoothing, denoising, or any other filters that improve the image but takes longer to process. Not to say there aren't expensive DACs that have very low lag just like how many expensive TV's offer low lag gaming mode.

I've been playing games since 98, and so many years on CRTs, I also been in the blur hate ship. But the more years pass the more I use motion blur in games, may be the age, but some fast paced games tend to give me headaches and motion sickness, something that can only be patched by motion blur. I've been really sensitive to screen tearing and flickering, so when you play on a modern display those still images between frames are really noticiable, specialy in fps games. Hate me but to be honest I need to use blur in some games, some are too much, but the are some games that let you configure the % of blur you want like battlefield 4 that makes it better

I kind of get why people are into CRTs: nostalgia, high contrast, and resolution forgiveness. The latter is crucial for games designed with them in mind (like the waterfalls in Sonic games). Plus, it's an excellent way to give the aging monitors a new chance, as the former owners have gone for flat panels. Personally, though, I'd go for an OLED screen if it was just for content and gaming instead of "real work" like writing, editing, etc. As far as I know, CRTs are bulky and consume a lot of power. Plus, if you go for a low-end unit like my small CRT TV that I've kept for memories, it can flicker noticeably, especially if it's a 50 Hz model like mine.

A lot of old games looked amazing because they would "bake" the lighting effects into the map. Basically it does a bunch of calculations at map compile time to see how the lightning from the lava should look on the walls, and it colors the walls like that. It would take like 20 hours to compile a map for Counter-Strike or Team Fortress Classic because it had all of these lighting calculations. The only downside of doing this is that baked lighting effects do not cast shadows. Most gamers really don't care about shadows. I can enjoy the environment with the shadows cast by the environment (baked) even if it doesn't have shadows cast by the player (dynamic). Modern games seem to skip all of that and just force the GPU to calculate everything on the fly. You get a game that looks the same but the GPU demands are 10x higher.

I think there are only 2 engines that run like butter, ID-tech and Source. In times like these were almost every new AAA game is a stuttery mess even on the best hardware available, it feels soo good to play titles like Titanfall 2 and the new DOOM / Wolfenstein games. Sadly the updcoming Indy game on Id-Tech doesn't look too hot, imho it looks worse than the New Colossus, while the upcoming Doom Dark Ages looks like a big leap over Eternal. I wonder why Machinegames doesn't seem like to have access to the same engine improvements, cause obviously their engine version is struggling to render large areals and characters.

CRT do have lag though. The problem with the "no lag" assertion is that it isolates only 2 sources of display lag: display processing and pixel response. The scanout time still applies, i.e. the time it takes to actually draw the picture line by line. This takes ~16 ms at 60 hz. With a modern display, e.g. a 240 hz OLED, scanout takes 4 ms and the game doesn't have to run at 240 FPS to take advantage of that. Unlike a CRT with fully analog signal path, display processing and pixel response time are not zero, however on a good modern display this adds no more than 1-2 ms altogether. So the total end-to-end display lag would be around 5-6 ms. Even a 120 hz CRT is slower than that. Note that this is the best case scenario for a CRT - some of the later CRTs also perform digital signal processing, adding significant extra lag like an older LCD. Of course this doesn't apply if the source device can't drive a high refresh rate display, e.g. if it's an older console.
@lovemadeinjapan11 күн бұрын
The HDMI signal goes pixel-by-pixel from top left to bottom right. Exactly like a CRT does. And each type of display can hook into that pixel stream without a lot of lag. The problem is perception: Plasma and CRTs exite the "pixel" right away, and the phosphors have a nice glow-after. Digital panels like LCD and OLED apply sample and hold: they capture the value for the pixel, and hold it until the next instruction arrives. That looks somewhat less natural. With LCD there is lag, and that is because each pixel is like an "elevator", it is much harder to stop changing the "level" at a precise point. So especially on grey-to-grey transitions, for example from 40% grey to 45% grey, LCD panels break their neck, and some very advanced pixel control is needed. That ads the lag, because to know how to get best from A to B, you need to know C as well, which is the next frame: hence the 1-2 frames lag.
