No-no, good surviving CRTs are an actual baller accessory to a proper retro system. This isn’t it. It needs to be a shitty slow early TFT, preferably one that already was scuffed by someone with a rainbow mark in the corner of the panel where it was damaged. Maximum ghetto vibe.
...and 15" max!

That's what she said.

01:09 am as of me typing it. Had a pretty uncommon day starting off with flying colours, mostly the bloody red one. Shitfaced yesterday, hit the sack after 4 am, woke up with a blood fountain outta my nose, lost a pound of blood, also working thereafter till right now, periodically losing more and more blood. Doc said I'm gonna be okay but no silly hardware experiments for tonight I'm afraid...

Why don't you use it for crypto currency mining, probably spend more on electricity than you make on coins but at least it's multitasking as room heater as well ;) .

Hope the nose bleed issue is not related to stress regarding this project, otherwise dump it as fast as you can as e-waste. Nostalgic hardware addiction can become quite serious..:laugh:

If I'm too late with this advise, here you can talk to fellow sufferers :roll::lovetpu:

Totally not. I just need to adjust to me being a bit more dated than I used to be which means I can no longer get as sky high as I did yesterday without grimy consequences. Will be fine. I never die.
fellow sufferers
I'm not suffering at all. Enjoying a different state of body and a different set of hardware. 'parently I'm still high.

Just for you to know: it's not possible to play Cyberpunk 2077 on this rig without using cloud services.
