We check out the display that took the 2008 tech world by storm. The Ostendo CRVD 43 was the worlds first curved AND ultra-wide monitor. It’s THICC and awesome and we get to unbox one. Who knew Linus running his mouth would get him a piece of history…… for $6000. Thanks to Vojox for sending us this: / vojoxb & / bullonoob91

Now that's an idea he's GOTTA DO
The ultimate WOW battle station.
I'm a commercial pilot and the full motion flight simulators we use have this tech. Multiple projections that make it look seamless that are adjusted for each window. You can tell it's not all one screen but it really changed everything as far as flight training goes. I've seen people break down and get the shakes/sweats after being beat on for four hours with engine failures and whatnot.
Interesting
I'm a sys admin on the navy p8 simulators. We had a tech that managed to fry one of those projectors. Somehow he got to keep his job (we're civilian contractors). They're definitely not cheap. I think somewhere in the range of $50k each and there's 3 per trainer. Then there's the mylar screen. We had one get damaged and the repair bill just to recoat the screen was around $85k. When you see what they're capable of it all makes sense though. I love managing those trainers because of how insanely complex they are. It's a constant challenge. Plus it's nice to know that if there was ever an emergency situation where I needed to land a 737 I would feel at home in the cockpit. The real magic is what's running to simulate the back of the plane.

Howdy VoralGun, A tear down is really not to hard what is 1 of Linus Big issues is to SLOW down when doing this Tear down... I own a few DLPs and they beat most gaming monitors when set up correctly even a 48 OLED we just tried vs the 73 & 82 DLPs we have....... LTT will need to replace Thermal paste and Led/Osram Bulbs and Possibly to be safe look but dont Buy New DMD/CPU chips..... But Bc his Monitor is working on All 4 DLPs that's a Great sign so they just need a deep clean and re paste and calibrate to work right! Linus Might be in for a chock if they do all this!!! Cow}:-o)
Did you ever actually do a tear-down of it? I can imagine what it'll look like but 4 mini projectors inside a custom screen like that would be interesting to look at!
4:25 Linus: "DisplayPort didn't exist yet"

if it's making weird noises, you might want to check for leaky capacitors. there was a glut of bad capacitors in 2008 iirc. my Samsung LCD monitor, bought around the same time, is starting to make high pitched noises when it's turned on or switches video modes. i will not be terribly surprised if it dies one of these days.

Yes. Of course 😆
Since this looks so much like a CRT, this could be a great bread and butter to a sleeper PC.
Edit: when i said the "bread and butter" of a sleeper PC, i meant that it'd be kinda like a cherry on top, a piece de resistance to top off a build. I didn't mean building a sleeper *inside* this monitor. Although, as difficult as it would be, it would be cool to retrofit a modern ultrawide panel and add RGB that could be switched on and off and a USB hub. Maybe incorporate the LTT logo even
Great idea
Did I ask?
You mean like swap a modern curved panel in and use the excess space behind for a balls to the walls gaming PC? Yeah I'm down...
True but I don't think you could fit a pc inside it except something with the size of a raspberry pi 4. The vast majority of the interior can't be used because of the projectors.

Imagine building an All-in-one Gaming PC with that screen's case.
Replace the four projectors with a modern widescreen, like Samsung and such, and then build the PC in the space behind it.

I know a guy with 20 of these that entombed himself into a sarcophagus built out of these and just simulates his entire existence.

The funny thing is Linus almost definitely made his money back from this video.
Not yet
He did the views and the sponsor
He doesn't have ads on the video
@@Hamox the sponsor tho and the 4m views

I thought it WAS a crt display. I’m disappointed
Same. With how big it is you most definitely could have put four portrait-oriented CRTs in there.

@@vyanldn you call it ugly I call it beautiful. Like those old original hd flat screen tvs with the big ass backs to em ohh baby thats aesthetic right there.
12:04 Linus knows the background comes through the task bar on Windows 10, right?
I hope so, just saw the bit
No, your boy doesn't know that.
maybe he thinks it's turned off...
Only if window transparency is enabled
lol. nice spot :D
If it was a CRT you'd need a forklift to move it.
My old 32" CRT weighed around 15 stone(if you need a comparison, I'd say Linus would be around 11 stone) and took two people to move it any more than a few feet. A monster like that would be literally back breaking if you lifted it like Linus did there.
Sounds like Todd Howard designed this monitor, "It just works."
Lol, I'm a huge fan of Bethesda and ZeniMax!
@@skylerwhiteyo I’m a huge fan of Todd Howard’s original idea of Skyrim with the best hand trees and guns

Pays 6k for the only working display on the market.
Wants to tear it apart.
Buy a non working one for that. This belongs in a museum as an important part of PC History.
Actually I have more working ones.
@@BullOnoob91 can I buy it and burn it ?
@@terpsquirter7107 If you are willing to spend 6000USD plus cover shipping like Linus was, then sure!
@@CineZoneYT Actually two more of mine are boxed, as was the one I sold Linus.
@@vojoxboggyman8368 wtf, you aren't the same guy. Different name, same profile picture. Covid got people really desperate to scam people.
He should revisit a top of the line CRT. I had a 52kg Sony 24'' that was 240hz 100% flat and perfect colors. Not the banding of todays 8bit panels ( Found the type. Sony GDM-FW900 )
Better Title: I put a $10k bounty on this product.

Sick lmao, have my like
@@untitled795 thanx a lot bro
But ended up paying $6000.
That's a $4000 profit for you!
My uncle had one back in the day at his engineering firm. I remember seeing it and thinking "Holy Shit!" as a kid
Well now we say only shit, but only with 360hz or 8K... or 4K, because of how good I looks but the most worth it monitor for doing anything it’s a 1440 144hz or even for games 240hz
Linus: "Hey, It works"
The non working model was only $5500

“Only” lol I’ll take two then..

No thanks, I'd just go for a new SAMSUNG 49" Odyssey Neo G9 for 1/4 of the price.
I didn't even know monitors like this existed back then. Reminds me of when John Carmack had his 28" 1080p monitor back in 1995..
Linus needs to get his hands on that shit
3:00
'Even when it's off, the screen's not even black' 😂
read that right as he said it lol
*Laughing AMOLED noises*
That's good. Now cop can't shoot it
Do you think he learned his lesson about blurting out "I'll pay $X for a working Y" yet?
Yes! AF!
Never
Nope
Didn't he do it immediately afterwards on the next WAN show?
He can afford it.
This monitor came out in 2009, was $6,500, and uses 200 watt..Just amazing for an old tech..
imagine if he dropped it in the beginning
That would be sad. :(
Lmao 😂
@@YoshiLikesFate Don't let me down down

I work at a tech recycling company, last year someone came in with this same monitor that they wanted us to recycle, I proposed that we resell it, (i didn't know anything about it at the time). We ended up selling it to this old tech guy for his "collection". So the first curved wide monitor is somewhere in Central Wisconsin.
Ayy that's where I am
@@lupodeltuono314 same!
I'm in Wisconsin too!
@@sabbathrocks100 thank god it's starting to get warm here
@@addisonkumlien2943 right? I can't wait for all of the snow and cryogenic-freezer-ish weather to be gone for the season.
You know.. with the monitors being more modern these days, it would be impressive to see this being redone but possibly capable to go 4K resolution!
The person that sold him this “hahahaha new triple 4K monitors and 3090 go brrrrr”
He could build a NVlinked dual 3090s system lol
gO bRrRrR
TBF, the monitor was sold for 6500 at 2008. Adjusting for inflation, it will be more
"Why did it come with such a stupid cable?"
I can't think of many video cards in 2008 that had HDMI output yet outside of the ultra-high-priced almost-experimental bracket.
Since it was such an expensive monitor, the intended customer base probably used those kinds of workstations.
My 2005 PC came with an ATI Radeon HD 3450 and it had HDMI on it.
The problem isn't the DVI to HDMI; it is that it is single instead of dual link DVI.
@@guardener HDMI is not able to output dual link DVI signal without active adapter which would have cost a fortune back in 2008 and it still costs $80.
"Look at all those muscles! What do you lift?"
"Monitors." ^^)
Ever moves a SUN crt? those things are freaking monsters.
I love how when Linus swears they beep it out but if you close captions on it show the full swear word that they said. lol
I am serious that my heart sank when that last panel didn't light up
That was scary
Suggestions:
* watercooling
* RGBing
* All-in-one PC
A noctua build in it
@@thony4102 ll
dont forget an overclock
Hate to break it to you boss but its not full of empty space back there. So could aio it by gutting it completely and installing hardware and a new panel.... kinda defeats the purpose
It could hold ss3 PC's..
Me: **spends half the video thinking that I've finally found the most glorious CRT ever and waiting eagerly for Linus to explain how it works**
Video: "It's not a CRT."
Me: ok **Disappointed**
your disappointment was immeasurable and your day was ruined
@@virtualtools_3021 😂
He made it extremely clear at the beginning of the video.
if that was a CRT you would need 3 people to lift it :)
@@olik136 not to mention how blurry the edges would be
there's a reason why most CRTs were convex
"You won't guess how much i paid for this..."
I feel pretty good guessing $1000 dollars under 3 years later.
