How can I choose the best TFT monitor?

TFT is a type of LCD or liquid crystal display monitor. The names come from thin film transistor , which is a technology used to improve image quality. When selecting a TFT monitor, beware of several factors. In general, it is necessary to get the largest screen in your budget, although sometimes a smaller screen from a high quality brand can be a better value than a larger screen from the budget manufacturer.

As with other screens, TFT monitors are listed according to their diagonal screen sizes. However, because the screen does not curl on the edges, the TFT screen will have about one inch (2.5 cm) extra visible area compared to the CRT monitor of the same diagonal size. It is also worth remembering that that and 16: 9 monitor or "wide" will have less total browser than a 4: 3 monitor with the same diagonal size. The difference varies by screen size, but as a harsh rule will have a 4: 3 monitor about 50% more area nEž its equivalent 16: 9.

It is also important to consider available inputs on the TFT monitor. If compatible with a computer, a digital input, such as DVI, will provide better results than an analog input like VGA. Digital input can also be useful if you want to use a monitor as a DVD player or game console screen.

There are a number of numbers used to measure the level of details available on the screen. The most common is a resolution that simply describes the number of pixels that can be displayed. The higher the resolution, the better the more detailed image.

Another measure is the ratio of the contrast. This is the character of the currency based on how many times brighter is a pure white signal displayed by a monitor than a clean black signal on the same screen. The higher the contrast ratio, the softer the color detail on the screen. It is worth noting that accurate methods for measuring contrast ratio may be foxIT, so it is more useful to use an independent guide that directly compares different models than to buy your own manufacturer's own characters.

The third measure is the response rate. This is the measurement of time that shows how quickly the screen can change its display. The rapid response rate is more important on the screen that you will use to watch videos or play games than it is mainly used for surfing the Internet and tasks in the office where the difference in response can be less noticeable.
