if u get an lcd make sure to get one that has a high refresh rate, so u get the most out of your gfx card
LCD's are so much better than CRT's...just get a good one. At the moment i have 2 PC's setup, 1 LCD one CRT, and if you cant tell which one is better then youd have to be blind...
Nahh. Really low resolutions. Most TVs only go up to like 800 x 600. I have a 19" CRT, my dad's got a 21.3" LCD. The LCD's colors are much brighter, the picture's much sharper, and the monitor itself looks badass. But, it cost $500. I got mine for $46, used. You decide. I know you're short on cash after your PC, so... Edit: If you do get a CRT, get flat screen. Mine's not, but it's facing away from light sources, so the glare's not to bad. But it can be.
Yea... well.. I am going for a 200 buck monitor, and im gonna try bribing my parents to throw in an extra 50 for me.. also nam, I am low on cash and such as you said, but I'll get enough money from christmas nd my birthday yaayyy.... Ok you guys can stop with this topic now..I think I'm gonna go with an lcd..
crts are actually better for gaming. Because they have lower response times, but with lcds fast catching up soon lcds will be in the lead.
Well think of it this way the screen itself takes up 3/4 of my desk and in only have just enough space to fit my keyboard and mouse, therefore where I sit is fairly close to the screen which will eventually ruin my eyes and I normally walk away with sore eyes after a session of gaming :blink:
Ahh ok^ and now I made my topic lookin for the best lcd monitor, check it out plz http://www.gamerenders.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=166021
CRT monitors resize screen resolutions better which is good for gaming, also, they have somewhat better refresh rates. LCDs are just plane nice in terms of looking at it and general use, they aren't so bright which is nice
