The choice of a monitor is a responsible business, since it is taken for a long time. Therefore, it is important not to miscalculate here and to purchase exactly the model that is well suited in all respects. In many respects, the quality of the monitor depends on how comfortable a person will feel when working at a computer, so it is better to devote more time and attention to the process of choosing a monitor than to regret the wrong choice later.
Instructions
Step 1
There are a lot of monitor models on the computer equipment market, so the choice should be made primarily based on the characteristics of the monitor, and not being guided by the manufacturer. Moreover, at present, all the world's computer brands provide quality products.
Step 2
As a type of monitor matrix, it is necessary to consider liquid crystal. They are the most common in the world today. Unlike CRT monitors that preceded them, they are much safer for health, have better color reproduction and consume much less energy.
Step 3
First, decide what purpose the monitor will be used for. This will help you decide which diagonal is better to buy it with. If you need a monitor for work, it is recommended to take a model with a screen diagonal of no more than 20 inches; if for work and play, choose the 22-24 inch model. If the monitor is mainly taken for watching movies and for playing video games, you can choose models with a diagonal of more than 25 inches.
Step 4
Also an important parameter is the response time of the matrix. This parameter must be between 8 ms and below. There is practically no difference between 8 ms and 5 ms, since 8 ms is the limit for the human eye. But you can feel the difference between 15 and 8 ms. So choose a model with at least 8ms pixel response.
Step 5
One of the main indicators of a monitor is brightness. LCD monitors in this indicator are inferior to CRT monitors. If the monitor will be used for viewing photos, movies and video games, the minimum brightness should be 300 cd / m². It is recommended to take a monitor with a brightness lower than 300 cd / m² only if it will be used only for work.
Step 6
Now, based on these parameters, just determine what kind of monitor you will buy. Don't worry about the connection interfaces - they are standard. Unless you bought a monitor without a digital output, and your video card only has a digital connection interface. In this case, you can purchase a special adapter that allows you to connect such a monitor to the digital interface on the video card.
