I wonder if I can get an adapter to mount an old massive CRT to a monitor arm, and if any monitor arm has pistons that can support the thing in the first place.
Get some HDMI to VGA adapters, the kind that screw into the VGA port and then have an HDMI port. I have a bunch of old VGA monitors I use with Raspberry Pis and as test displays when working on PCs and never have to deal with the annoyances of VGA since they’re basically HDMI displays now.
Fighting games and the absolutely lowest possible video latency with the tech available. VGA puts you literally a frame or two ahead of the opponent. For players at their peak, this is a pretty big advantage.
Left side: Unscrews from the standoff. Right side: Unscrews the standoff from the IO plate.
Every. Fucking. Time.

Dont think the best vga monitors will beat current oleds in response times.
Using a gpu that still has vga will be a problem as well.
CRTs are highly desirable for retro gaming.
Every time
I used to use locktite on my stand-offs.
Now there’s an idea.
