1024x768 is always the answer to this since 1997

rip my 17.4" viewable 19" crt with 1024x768@120 :(

it did way higher but at decreasing refresh and more judder due to shielding in the wall wiring being old at the time. it also started to get fuzzy at high resolutions and needed constant adjustments since it was only vga

tfc looked great with high refresh and aa on. good monitor

always go for a waz before leaving a place
don’t be reluctant to take two trips whenever carrying something

i thought those were good

i sometimes throw cables away

i mean straight into the bin without spending 10+ years in the box of might-come-in-handy-someday first

im a fucking monster

up to say 100hz i could see for reducing eyestrain, but 120 or 144hz is the monitor equivalent of audiophiles claiming they can hear ultrasonics
