my main question is will black levels of an lcd EVER reach top end CRT levels and why is it so difficult to achieve?...I thought H-IPS levels offered the best 8 bit color reproduction and if so why does it still suck in comparison to CRT's?
I still own a very high end Sony GDM-F520 21' CRT monitor which looks absolutely beautiful in terms of color quality...I've had it over 9 years and have been reluctant to give it up for an LCD for many reasons but some of them include the fact that LCD's do not offer black levels anywhere near that of a high end CRT...that along with the input lag and ghosting issues have kept me far away from LCD's...I'm a big time gamer and these factors are critical for me
I've researched tons of LCD's over the years and they all have fallen short but I recently started looking into the NEC LCD2490WUXi (H-IPS) abd it sounds really good...it still has most of the same drawbacks as all other LCD's but it sounds like the best option...should I just jump on this NEC LCD and accept it as being the best LCD on the market or should I wait for some new technology coming out soon which will drastically improve the black levels of an LCD?
