NVIDIA, VISTA & CRT Refresh Rates

jmke · 8th May 2009, 15:00

Getting a CRT display off 60Hz, especially in 3D games, has been a bone I’ve gnawed on for well over a decade. I’ve investigated solutions under ATI & NVIDIA graphics cards dating back to Windows 95. When Windows XP was released we thought the problem had been addressed, but still it appeared from time to time to haunt us. Before Windows Vista arrived I had just about managed to exercise all these cantankerous spirits, but of course, evil Vista has managed to raise the dead!

17" CRT bent a bow in my desk... 24" LCD weighs less and is far brighter. No reason to use a CRT anymore especially with some >100% color gamut models...
