I can't seem to find a new one that will do it. I did stumble across the Dell/Sony P991, but I can only find it refurbished. I'm interested in finding a new 19" CRT capable of the specs listed in the title. If anyone that knows of one that can do that, I'd like to know. I'd appreciate it. You don't need to go out of your way and look for one for me, that's what I'm doing at the moment. Just if you know one off the top of your head or one that you own that can do this. Thanks!

I'm pretty dam sure my Iiyama Vision Master Pro450 could do that. An AMAZING monitor imo.

Why the 120Hz though? Is 100Hz not enough?!

It probably is enough :)
I just think it would be neat for a good monitor to be able to do that.
In reality, you're right, I probably won't even need that. When I do upgrade my monitor soon (from a 17" HP M70 to whichever I pick next), I probably won't need something that extreme. The thing is, though, I'm not going to use a larger monitor for its higher resolutions, for the most part. Right now I game at 10x7 and set my desktop to 10x7. I can barely see my desktop as it is, and magnifying the text only helps somewhat. I have horrible eyesight. I will probably run my desktop at 10x7 with a new monitor, but I am looking to play games at a newer height, probably 12x10 at the most. So, a monitor that could do the highest refresh rate at 10x7 (120hz) or 12x10 (100hz would be good here) would suit me well. I don't want to go for an LCD because I just don't like them very much, plus a good 17" LCD is going to cost me $150 more than what I pick for a 19" CRT. Most of my friends have them, and I just don't enjoy using them when I play around on their comps. The 120hz at 10x7 was more of a curiosity thing, though. Thanks much for replying.

You would probably wear it out alot faster by using such high refresh rates.

My Sony G400 does it (120hz @ 1600x1200). Sure am going to miss the Sony's. Anyone else notice that they have finally stopped making FD trinitrons? They are SO hard to find now!

That totally sucks ass! :( I love my G500. Just to think I won't be able to replace it if it breaks, REALLY sucks. :(

If you need the display to be bigger, why don't you get a bigger monitor than 19"?
