− | + | - Can display a wide range of resolutions up to 480i on SDTVs and 1080i on HDTVs | |
− | + | - No input delay | |
− | + | - Very fast response time | |
− | + | - True Black | |
− | + | - Wide viewing angle | |
− | + | - 4:3 Aspect ratio (With a few exceptions) | |
− | + | '''How to connect to a CRT Tv:''' | |
− | + | - Wii would be easiest. Can output to 240p | |
− | + | - VGA to RCA and S-Video converter box. Outputs to 480i | |
− | |||
− | + | - Most CRT HDTVs have either DVI or HDMI ports which can accept as low as 480p from a PC | |

− | + | - All benefits of a CRT TV besides native inputs for actual hardware | |
− | + | - 480p mode (lower with some tricks, such as doubling the refresh rate to 120Hz, Beware of motion blur) | |
− | |||
− | + | - Easy to connect to a computer | |
− | + | - Larger resolutions available, often massive | |
− | + | - Not as large as many TVs, rarely larger than 19" or 21" | |

− | + | - 4:3 Aspect ratio (With a few exceptions, notably the FW900) | |
− | |||
− | + | ==LCD (TN)== | |
− | + | - Native resolution which all output must scale to | |
− | + | - Fairly fast response times | |
− | + | - 120hz displays with hacks can display motion at the same level as a CRT tv. See: | |

− | + | - Vivid colors and contrast | |
− | + | - Good viewing angles | |
− | + | - Massive resolutions available. | |
− | + | - No 120Hz for motion (Unless that's changed, who knows) | |
− | + | - Fairly long response times (May differ between panels) | |
