Blur Busters Forums

Is there a way to bypass the pixel clock limit is OS X 10.5? My PowerMac G5 Quad needs 240Hz (overclock PCB), but custom resolutions past 125Hz don't show up is System Preferences after installing them with SwitchResX (Basically CRU for OS X). This is the 165MHz limit in the drivers of some connect...

I want 2560x1600, not 1440p.

Will that moniter overclock past 60Hz?

Also consider that the FW900, even though it says it's 24", it's a CRT, so it's not really 24". It's has more like 22" visible area. So if you're currently on a standard 24" TFT, then the FW900 is going to be a downgrade (when it comes to size, of course, since with everything else, it's an upgrade...

IMO there's nothing wrong with upscaling 1080p to 1440p if your rig can't handle it.

If it's not a CRT, FED, or SED, it MUST run at the max resolution, if not, massive blur will occur.

The swift has a higher maximum resolution and refresh rate and GSYNC. If your rig can handle running games at 1440p I would go with the swift. I can't even use G-Sync because I have a 290X. The FW900 can unofficially do 150Hz-200Hz at its 1024x640 and 60Hz-85Hz at 2880x1800. The monitors seem to be...

I know that if a LCD is overclocked to high, it just blackscreens and doesn't suffer any permanent damage. However, I am considering getting a FW900 to replace my junk TN/77Hz/1920x1080, but I want to have a higher-than-stock refresh rate. Can overclocking a C.R.T monitor cause permanent damage?

Which one would be the best for gaming? Money, size, and power consumption are not important to me.

How can I get a LCD to refresh at 240Hz? I know that another member of this forum was able to get a LCD to 240Hz, but how? The video for the 240Hz VG278HE didn't show how to build the PCB.

No mods done: Sony FW900 CRT. Modded monitor: VG278HE with 240Hz PCB installed.
