why did vidja have to come back to this? i injured my damn back hauling this big fuckin shit to the dump.

it's thanks to cheap garbage chinko LCDs being shat out as cheap as possible for Normie Jane and Normie John to pay $70 a month to watch commercials and sports on.
If the monitors that gamers actually use (as in, 144hz panels that inherently are extremely low latency) had component/composite/s-video inputs that'd be ideal, but nobody makes anything of the sort.
I'm trying to get a decent desk-sized CRT myself.

me too back in 2011. It was 39kg (85lb). I should have bought a Framester

It would look horrible.
Converting s-video/component to HDMI without a signal processor is always a bad idea.
If you don't care too much buy a cheap 720p LCD monitor, 20 dollar S-video/Component to HDMI and be happy.

who said anything about HDMI? I meant native ports on the back of the display like they have DVI and DP now.

my senpai still have this big ass crt that took 4 Samoans to move and they still struggled with it. the worst part is i want that tv now lol.

It doesn't matter, LCD displays don't handle analog signal very well

I swear not too long ago I was seeing crt tvs at goodwill being sold for like $3.
>>387029845
I bought 1 last year for $30 brand new. The guy had in his grandmother garage since 2004

Salvation Army stores still accept and sell CRTs. I bought a nice 14 incher with s-video and component for $20.

Humanity is regressing
Technology at the surface seems to be progressing, but it's all frivolous and decadent. Everything today is of lower quality, while things such as space travel have significantly regressed
Even IQ's are getting lower with each generation as of 10 years ago
