    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    So I have a chance to get one these. and I'm really only interested if it's in good to very good condition. The story is the guy bought four of them used six years ago and they were all looking great when he got them, they were factory calibrated from the production company right before they...

    2 Questions: 1.Is there any consensus on some of the best GFX cards to use with this? I assume analog out is a prerequisite, I know there's other solutions like HDfury but they don't sound all the way there yet, particularly if you running mostly older games you don't need all the Ghz in more...

    SELLING: 7* NEC XP29 Plus (same as XM29 Plus but better)

    Selling NEC XP29 Plus in Los Angles/San Diego, proper shipping an option as well. (XP not XM, P is better) You’ve probably heard of the NEC XM29 Plus and it being arguably the best retro CRT you can get. These are XP29 plus, same but better, more rare, more signal range, so they can do 1024x768...

    Is there a consensus a good DVI-I to VGA adapter and/or cable to use? That doesn't gimp your bandwidth, break or cause any issues. Or does just about any DVI-I cable plus adapter or both in one cable do the job just fine?

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    Thanks! Looks like most of the time the back plastic panel is always attached to the main one and they are treated as one. I assume the back is designed to come on and off while the main shell is still attached though; otherwise it's a strange design to separate the shell into two pieces, maybe...

    Just joined the club! I need some help to get the plastic shell on the back snapped in all the way; couldn't find any info; pictures, video on it. Somehow the bottom plastic HINGE like joints seperated on left and right side for the back plastic panel. There's no way I can bend the plastic...

    Also, how severe do scratches have to be before they can't be fixed with removing factory installed anti-glare film? As in, how can you tell if a stratch or mar goes past it? How THICK is this built in anti-glare film? I would guess likely between 0.1 - 1mm thick, but I have no idea really and...

    What are the best tests, patterns, software to run for INSPECTING the condition a CRT like this? Ballparking the number of hours and age on the electron guns and phosphorus, things that can't be fixed or calibrated to work better. Also, any advice on seeing how deep scratches are besides the...

    SSD for capturing video stream 480p 60fps, data rates?

    What other consistent, reliable 500GB SSDs should I consider besides the 850 evo 500GB with black Friday?cyber Monday here? Since data rate isn't an issue, thanks!

    SSD for capturing video stream 480p 60fps, data rates?

    Should an SSD for this job need a higher data rate? like a 850 evo 1TB. I care more about the consistency and reliability but definitely don't want this device to be bottlenecking the operation in anyway. I'll be using OBS to stream to twitch as well as capturing to SSD for my own backup...

    semi broken HDD, help getting some files off it. (data transfer software?)

    Unfortunately about half the files couldn't be transferred with Teracopy either. Just stalls out with no errors reported. Are there any other ideas for Windows 7 64 bit? It's a slave drive, can transfer to another windows 7 machine also. About 7 100-600MB media files would be nice to get back.

    semi broken HDD, help getting some files off it. (data transfer software?)

    oh ya I forgot to mention, windows disc check always reported "no errors" "no bad sectors" "drive working properly" and the only error I get when running HDD scan SMART is "197 Current Pending Errors Count 192 192 0000000000-05AF 000 " MB is a gigabyte EP45-UD so shouldn't be any...
