I've been considering getting an old CRT monitor or TV for use either with emulators or my old Playstation 2. Is there anything I should look out for? Information seems pretty sparse for models I can find in Turkey. Are refresh rates above 100hz achievable on most CRT's, or the high end ones?

200hz is doable on good CRTs.

ive had a CRT that was 200HZ , they are smoother then any lcd or led panel u can imagine, it also doesnt have input lag on what thoes displays DO have... its the smoothest thing ul ever get... but then again, i never had eye problems and using a high hz crt my eyes went downhill rly quickly ,  crt's are eye murderers hence why mostly permanent crt users have bigass glasses
