Key Features
An aspect ratio is the ratio between the horizontal dimension and the vertical dimension. Common monitor aspect ratios are 4:3 and 5:4. If your monitor has a 4:3 aspect ratio, then your screen resolution setting should have a similar 4:3 aspect ratio, otherwise the display will be squished and objects will appear fatter. On the other hand, if your monitor has a 5:4 aspect ratio, then pick a resolution setting which also has a 5:4 aspect ratio. The more common resolutions having a 4:3 aspect ratio are: 800x600, 1024x768, 1152x864, and 1600x1200 pixels. Resolution settings with a 5:4 aspect ratio are 1280x1024 pixels, and 1600x1280 pixels. These resolutions should not be set for monitors having a 4:3 aspect ratio. The display will be distorted. For widescreen LCD monitors, the aspect ratio is 16:9 (or sometimes 16:10 or 15:9). Widescreen LCD displays are useful for viewing DVD movies in widescreen format, playing games and displaying multiple windows side by side.
Native (Recommended) Resolution
1680 x 1050
Contrast Ratio is the difference between the whitest white and the darkest black colors the display can show. The greater the contrast, the better the screen and the subtlety of colors it can display.

Widescreen (16:9)
Response Time is an attribute that applies to LCD monitors. It translates to the amount of time it takes for a liquid crystal cell to go from active (black) to inactive (white) and back to active (black) again. It is measured in milliseconds or (ms). Lower numbers mean faster transitions (eg. 16 ms is faster than 25 ms.) and therefore less visible image artifacts.
Response Time
Fast (5 - 8.9 ms)
Displays come in a few different types. A standard CRT is the most common type of monitor and widely used. They are also the most cost-effective. LCD and TFT monitors have a flat tube so they take up less desk space. They are more expensive than CRTs, but have recently dropped in price.

Technical Features
Analog Video Inputs, which also may be known as D-Sub inputs, allow a monitor to receive analog (VGA) video signals. Analog inputs accommodate connectors with three rows of pins, with a total of 15 pins. With a higher the number of Analog Video Inputs, more analog input devices can be connected to the monitor.
Analog Video Input Connector(s)
1 x 15 Pin D-Sub connector
Color Depth is a measurement used to describe the monitor range of colors. The higher the color depth, the wider color range displayed.
Color Depth
24-bit (16.7M Colors)
Max. Viewing Angle - Vertical

Dot pitch is a measurement used to describe the quality of the display. The lower the number, the sharper the image and vice versa.
Max. Viewing Angle - Horizontal

Brightness, also known as luminance or photometric brightness, is the luminance intensity of any surface in a given direction. It is measured per unit of projected area of the surface as viewed from a single direction.
