RetroGamingBase Pushes Decades-Old CRT Monitor to 700Hz
The IIyama Vision Master Pro 512 achieves unprecedented refresh rates, surpassing modern gaming monitors.
- RetroGamingBase used an Nvidia Control Panel to achieve 700Hz on a 22-year-old IIyama CRT monitor.
- The monitor's resolution was reduced to 320 x 120 to maintain stability at this high refresh rate.
- Previous tests on the same model reached 500Hz and 600Hz at slightly higher resolutions.
- Modern gaming monitors typically max out at 540Hz, making this an extraordinary feat.
- The channel plans to find a less pristine CRT for further, more rigorous testing.
