A creator connected a PlayStation 5 Pro to a 1990s Sony CRT monitor using video signal converters to make the modern console work with legacy display hardware.

While the image is limited by the CRT's lower resolution and analog signal, the display delivers the scanlines, motion clarity, and nostalgic look many retro gaming fans enjoy.

It is an unusual mix of old and new technology that shows how decades-old displays can still be used with today's gaming hardware.

... Read moreUsing a CRT monitor with a modern console like the PS5 Pro offers a uniquely nostalgic experience that's hard to replicate on today's high-resolution screens. The analog signal combined with the CRT's inherent scanlines delivers a softer image with pleasing motion characteristics, which many gamers find appealing when playing classic or retro-style games. From personal experience, adapting modern gaming setups to CRTs requires the right video signal converters, often involving HDMI to analog component or composite converters, depending on the CRT's input options. While the resolution is limited compared to current displays, this limitation adds to the retro aesthetic, making games feel closer to their original format. Beyond the visuals, CRTs provide near-zero input lag and smooth motion handling, ideal for fast-paced games. Additionally, for collectors and enthusiasts, using legacy screens like a 1990s Sony CRT offers a connection to gaming history, bridging past and present technologies. This setup reflects a growing trend among gamers who appreciate the tactile and visual qualities of older hardware, proving that decades-old displays remain relevant and enjoyable alongside the newest consoles.

Content creator’s 🫶
One of the hardest parts about creating content is how easy it is to get stuck inside your own head. “What if people don’t like this?” “What if this flops?” “What if nobody cares?” “What if this is too random?” 😭 But honestly? People usually connect more to the things that feel real.
