Choosing a computer monitor

Amazingly sharp graphics, vibrant colors, comfort and sleek designs.
Those are just a few of the features you can get in a new PC monitor.
The options may be overwhelming, but if you know what you'd like to do
with your PC, these guidelines can help you choose the right display.




Step 1: choose flat-screen CRT or flat-panel LCD display





Your
first question is, CRT or LCD? The answer can depend on your reason for
buying a new monitor—do you just need a replacement, or do you
want to upgrade your current monitor?



If
you're looking for a basic model or inexpensive replacement, a CRT
(cathode-ray tube) will be the best deal. Although they're still bulky,
flat-screen CRT monitors are less susceptible to creating distracting
glare than traditional curved CRT models.



If
you're short on space or concerned about style, then a flat-panel LCD
(liquid crystal display) is where it's at. The screen is very thin,
meaning you can get a larger screen in a small space. Nothing
complements your desktop more than a sleek, fashionable slim design,
and for image quality, a flat-panel can't be beat. It offers a sharp,
crisp picture and superior contrast—with the whitest whites and
the blackest blacks.



















Graphics




If
you're a gamer or designer, or if you use graphic-intense programs,
look at a high-end model with improved brightness and higher contrast
ratios. If you spend a lot of time on your computer, keep in mind that
a quality display will be better for eyestrain and fatigue. Also check
out the different input options to make sure your new monitor is
compatible with your video card.



Sound


Many
monitors don't come with killer built-in sound systems, so if you're
just looking for basic sound, check out a screen with built-in
speakers. If you're looking for more, look for a set of high-powered
external speakers to complement your new display.















After
you've chosen the perfect display to complement your home or office,
consider some of the following accessories to make your visual
experience even better:



PC speakers add awesome audio to games, movies, presentations and websites.



Video cards
maximize your monitor’s graphics potential, boost gaming
performance and can let you spread your work across multiple monitors.



KVM switches let you attach multiple PCs to one monitor.
