As it's a analouge signal the imput amount of the pixels dont matter as much, the TV set uses a progressive scan of 480, so it's not actually even HD ready.

From the information i gather on the web it dont support 720P witch is what "HDready" usally mean.

To be honest i dont know from the little bare minimum info you choose to view what to recomend you, i'd say get a new TV that support the things you want to do already from the start.

you think its worth it crt picture has better picture better blacks smoother for games I'll miss that. lcd does look sharper and brighter though

what you think of this one

CRT has much better blacks than even IPS panel LCD. There are other drawbacks of CRT tech but lets not say it doesnt have any advantages and that LCD is perfect because it definitely isnt. S-PVA panels have the best blacks in LCD's but their other short comings make them inferior to IPS for gaming.

I don't think you'll regret the buy at all, even very expencive tube TV's are not playing in the same quality as cheap TFT's are today. The reason for keeping older CRT's is not because they offer better quality, it's because the cost of a new one to replace it. swehunt
