Viewsonic P95f+B CRT any good?

[Bluga]

Does anyone have one? How's the color and refresh rate? Is it bulky?

I just brought a viewsonic P95F 2-3months ago and it's great. I chose the P95F over the P95F+ because the P95F original has a higher bandwidth which allows it's to obtain a higher refresh rate than the P95F+ and it's comes with a BNC connector which some people claim, gives better image quality. I'm using the BNC connector now but noticed no difference from the standard VGA cable. I'm running this monitor at 1024x768 at 140hz, I've tried higher resolutions but find the text too small for me to read.

Thanks, is P95F more expensiv?

 

[RayEarth]

yes, why yes it is, I brought mines for $357, hopefully the price went down by $10, hopefully.

 

[Bluga]

bump for more ideas.

I have the P95f.

It's very nice. Yes, it's very bulky. I love it though. It's *flat*. Ideal resolution is 1600x1200, IMO. Windows won't let me do 92Hz for some reason, so it's down at 85.

It was $399 when I got it in March. I think they're considerably less expensive now.

I had 2 P95F+'s that suffered from distortion on the bottom most 1" of the screen. I assume it was a fluke but aside from that it was a decent display but not as nice as my Sony G410R I use on my machine.
