Question:

please help, i cant put it together by myself,this is about LCD monitors?

does a monitor have to be HD in order to get HD programming? whats a good contrast ratio, native res, and refresh rate. Im looking at a 19 AOC widescreen monitor, 800:1 contrast ratio, 5ms refresh, 1440x900 native res.,300cd/m2 brightnes lvl. Would it give me a better picture than what my 30'' CRT HDTV ?(with the native res. of 1080i HD)

Answer:

You can state all the specs you want, and yes, some actually kind of matter, but the best thing you can do with LCD monitors is to go and actually try each one and see which one is more visually pleasing to you. Different people like different monitors and respond differently to them. That said, the higher the contrast ratio, the better; the higher the resolution, the better (to a pointthings get very small very fast) - especially for gaming; and obviously the size is a big factor. CRT's can give a very nice picture, but the refresh is the problem. LCD's are much better in this respect.
I would advise to take the specs you have here and go to a computer store (IT) and see what they say. Resaearch before you buy.
