That's just comparing CRT screens with 60Hz LCD panels. Get anything 120Hz+ and you will see that modern systems are very snappy.

- wao0uuno 2y agoI strongly disagree with this statement. Every new version of Windows feels slower than the last one. Linux DEs are either very outdated and very snappy or somewhat modern and only barely snappier than Windows. I have zero experience with MacOS.
- hodapp 2y agoNo, an extra ~17 msec of delay is not even close to the cause of this. The speed difference between older and newer UIs is still apparent even at 60 Hz.
- morning-coffee 2y agoCRT screens were also 60Hz. Look at the latency along all steps of the pipeline to get a keypress visible on the screen... https://danluu.com/input-lag/ https://danluu.com/input-lag/
- goosedragons 2y agoMany were above 60Hz and it depends on resolution. An iMac G3 for instance could do 75Hz at 1024x768 or 640x480 at 117Hz. Someone recently got a CRT at 700Hz too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zm3lLlaEC8&t=0s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zm3lLlaEC8&t=0s
- hollandheese 2y agoOnly the crappy ones were restricted to that. My 22” Diamondtron went 2048x1536 @ 85Hz or 1600x1200 @ 100Hz (which is what I usually ran it at)
- anthk 2y agoMy CRT did 1024x768@85 HZ.
