Upgrade Your Computer with one of these High Tech LCD Monitors Today 

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) monitors are an easy way to upgrade your desktop computer by clearing away the bulk of your old Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) monitor. LCD monitors are lightweight, thin and consume less power than CRT monitors. They also last longer than CRT monitors and have a very clear resolution. If you are looking to streamline your home computing workspace, investing in an LCD monitor is a great way to modernize your desktop.

Another advantage LCD monitors have over CRT’s is that the size of the monitor screen more closely matches the size of the monitor. Since CRT’s are so bulky there is a frame around the actual screen, so a 17- inch monitor usually only has about a 16 inch screen. With a 17-inch LCD monitor, you get a 17-inch viewing area or very close to it. So with this in mind, the best way to sort LCD monitors is by size.

Small to Mid-size LCD Monitors

For those with limited surface area in their workspace, a 17-inch monitor is a good choice and an LCD monitor will give you the most screen area without it hogging your whole desk. The HP 1740 17-inch Swivel/Pivot LCD Monitor has a flat screen and swivels and pivots for convenient viewing. It can also be wall mounted. The HP 1740′s maximum resolution is 1280 pixels x 1024 pixels at 75 Hz mx. Its aspect ratio is 5:4 and its contrast ratio is 800:1. This monitor is silver, weighs 12.4 pounds and measures 17.5 inches both wide and high with a depth of 8.5 inches. Its power consumption is 60 watts and it is Energy Star compliant.

Folks who have a bit more space can opt for a slightly larger monitor with the LG W1943TB-PF 19-inch LCD Monitor. This widescreen monitor has a 16×9 aspect ratio and has a color depth of 16.7 million colors. Its resolution is 1366 pixels x 768 pixels and it has Intelligent Auto-Resolution. The LG W1943TB-PF weighs 6.4 pounds and measures 17.7 inches wide x 14.2 inches high x 7.2 inches deep. These specs include the monitor stand.

Creeping up on the size chart is the LG L200ME-BF 20-inch LCD Flat Panel Monitor. This model has excellent resolution, coming in at 1600 pixels x 1200 pixels. It also has Intelligent Auto Resolution. The display is a standard 4:3 and the contrast ration is 800:1. The LG L200ME-BF also has swivel and tilt capabilities up to 90 degrees, making it easy to work and view the screen comfortably. The dimensions on this LCD monitor are 23 inches x 19 inches x 20.46 inches.

Next in size is the Acer V223WEJbd 22″ LCD Monitor. This widescreen monitor includes a DVI (HDCP) connector and comes with an option for integrated speakers. The resolution on this Acer is 1680 pixels x 1050 pixels and its contrast ratio is 50,000: 1. Dimensions are 15.70 inches in high x 19.90 inches wide x 7 inches deep. It weighs 10.10 pounds. This environmentally friendly LCD monitor has earned the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT) Silver Rating. This means it met 23 required criteria as well as half of the optional 28 criteria that are part of this distinction.  

Another good option in the 20-inch range is the Dell ST2310 23-inch HD Widescreen LCD Monitor.  This monitor has a stunning 1920 pixel x 1080 pixel widescreen display and is high definition capable. Its aspect ratio is 16×9 and its contrast ratio is 50,000:1. It measures 15.87 inches high x 22.19 inches long x 8.54 inches deep and weighs 12.86 pounds. The Dell ST2310 has 30-watt power consumption and is Energy Star compliant.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Large LCD Monitors

If you have the space and are looking for a large monitor, the Samsung 400DX-2 40-inch LCD Monitor also has incredible resolution, checking in at 1920 pixels x1080 pixels. It is Energy Star compliant and its dimensions are 23.78 inches high x 36.69 inches wide x 12.24 inches deep. These measurements include the stand. The monitor is one of the heavier models out there, coming in at 48 pounds but, given the size of this unit, that is to be expected. The Samsung 499DX is also Green Compliant.

Another option in the 40-inch range of monitors is the LG M4213CCBA Widescreen 42-inch LCD Monitor. Resolution on this model is 1366 pixels x 768 pixels. The aspect ratio is 16×9. The dimensions with the stand are 26.60 inches high x 39.50 inches wide x 11.50 inches deep. This model is also Energy Star compliant.

With their streamlined design, excellent resolution and green compliance, LCD monitors can free you from the bulk of your old CRT monitor. Available in a wide range of sizes to fit any size desk, LCD monitors are a simple way to upgrade and modernize your computer for a more comfortable and productive workspace.
