How to choose a good MONITOR (LCD)

LCD Monitor is now a computer equipment which is common and can be found anywhere. The shift of technology from the former dominated by CRT monitor is now switched on the LCD monitor. There are several factors that drive the increasing use of LCD monitors and CRT monitors are getting buried by time. Among them is the LCD monitor power consumption is relatively much smaller than CRT monitors. A more compact size and slim LCD monitors are very interested in making. Number of LCD monitors on the market making consumers more freedom in determining his choice in addition to the prices offered are competitive and less expensive than CRT monitors.
The size of the LCD monitor also vary from sizes 15 inches to 24 inches for home use (personal computer). Manufacturer and brand of LCD monitors are also quite a lot, from local brands such as Advance to outside brands like ASUS or DELL. The price offered by each manufacturer are also quite competitive, with price range between one million to four million. Price certainly affect the quality of the LCD monitor. But did the average for similar quality between the LCD monitor brands.
To choose the right LCD Monitor products, you should know the parameters that define the differences between LCD monitors available today. Here are key features that you can know to select the LCD type monitors:
1. Screen Resolution
The resolution of each monitor must have different views of their size. The greater the resolution produced by the quality of LCD monitors are getting better. This resolution is also influenced by the wide screen monitor, the size of 1280 x 768 pixels (for sizes 15 inches) up to 1920 x 1200 pixel size (for sizes 24 inches). You will hear the term monitor HD ready (more expensive), this term for LCD monitors that support a minimum resolution of 1400 X 1050 pixels to support High Definition technology. If the monitor is HD ready, it can be said that the monitor is good enough.
2. Contrast Ratio
Contrast Ratio can be used as points to determine whether or not the quality of an LCD monitor. The higher value of contrast ratio the better the quality of an LCD monitor. What is contrast ratio? shows the contrast ratio between the number of black and white color, usually to show gradations of color, and are indicated by the value of many to one (eg, 1000:1 or 50000:1). Make sure the LCD monitor you want to buy has a value higher contrast ratios.
3. Response Time
Response is indicated by the value of milli-second (ms). The lower the value timenya response, the better the quality of the LCD monitor. A good response time between 2-5 ms, for the current standard LCD monitor.
4. Dot Pitch
Dot pitch is the size of the pixels on an LCD monitor. The smaller the dot pitch size, the more tightly images to be produced, and of course the better the quality of the LCD monitor. As an example of a good dot pitch with a size of 0282 mm (millimeters).
5. View Angle
View angle is your point of view in wearing the monitor. All you need to pay attention to the view angle of a LCD monitor, LCD monitor good angle thus has a broader view, this is used to see the screen from any side. When you're facing the monitor from a straight direction (parallel to the view of the monitor) then the monitor will display the picture (color) is best, but when you slide your body rather leftist / to right or up / down, then the color and brightnessnya will also change. Well good LCD monitor, has a wider angle view, so you can more freely to see the screen without compromising the quality of the resulting picture. Bad LCD when you slide your position will slightly change color and sharp. Value of good standard view angle is about 160 degrees horizontally and 160 degrees vertically.
I think the points above are enough for you to be considered in buying a LCD monitor. If lots of you will even confused myself ... hehe ...
Oh yes, there is also such thing as LCD TVs, LCD TVs certainly more expensive than ordinary LCD, with the difference in price between 500rb up to 1.5 million for each size. LCD TVs have the advantages can be used for enjoying Digital TV broadcast with a very clear image quality (which supports digital TV broadcast) ..
We recommend you purchase a new LCD monitor, do not buy used unless it can be accounted monitor quality. Will monitor these fears proved false or former reconstructed from a damaged lcd monitor.
