A huge number of different monitors on store shelves baffles many people. Not everyone knows what to be guided by when choosing a liquid crystal display.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose an LCD monitor based on your personal needs. If only the size or appearance of the device matters to you, then just pick a beautiful monitor and buy it.
Step 2
For those who want to buy a high-quality monitor that meets safety requirements and has sufficient quality parameters, you should know some of the nuances. Start by defining the type of matrix.
Step 3
According to the results of numerous tests, IPS-type matrices and compatible types have the best indicators.
Step 4
Select the display type. It can be a standard 4: 3 screen or a widescreen monitor (16: 9). Both types have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, when running old games or full-screen programs on a widescreen monitor, you run the risk of encountering two black bars on the left and right sides.
Step 5
Find out the response time (lag) of the monitor image. For game lovers, especially shooters, this is a very important parameter.
Step 6
Determine the viewing angle. Modern technologies allow you to achieve high-quality images even when the screen is rotated 50-60 degrees.
Step 7
Find out the maximum resolution of the monitor matrix. Modern widescreen displays support HD and FullHD formats.
Step 8
Pay attention to the presence or absence of certain ports for connecting the monitor to the video adapter. The fact is that there is no point in buying a monitor that supports a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and has only a VGA (analog signal) port.
Step 9
Naturally, you should pay attention to the appearance. Namely - on the functionality of the stand. Ideally, the display should tilt and rotate 30-40 degrees in each direction fairly easily.
