Newer LCD monitors have improved with the implementation of IPS (In-plane switching) panels. Additionally, LED monitors can be much thinner than LCD ones. This is the preferred type in most monitors, because it consumes less power and produces less harsh light so that darker colors appear more vivid. In LCD, it’s cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL’s) and in LEDs, it’s tiny light emitting and low-energy consuming diodes. The main difference lies in the material that is used to light the liquid crystals in the display. First there’s the matter of how the monitor lights up: either with LCD or LED. Although it’s standard to have a 4 millisecond response time on many gaming monitors, Samsung, LG, BenQ, Viewsonic, and more all offer 2k and 4k monitors that have 1 millisecond response times.Īs far as the internal specs are concerned, response time and refresh rate are the main factors that contribute to a smooth, immersive viewing experience, but the physical panel type of the monitor can also play into this. Sometimes, if the response rate is not quick enough, some residual pixels can remain on the screen as the monitor is trying to refresh new ones. The refresh rate in the monitor works in tandem with a low response time (which just specifies how quickly the monitor can send and receive new information) in order to make a seamless visual transition. The quicker a monitor can refresh the display, the more smooth the visual experience will be. Typically, the standard has been 120 hertz refresh rate in gaming monitors, but Asus’ 27 inch MG279Q monitor features a 144 hertz refresh rate.

To make it easier to distinguish between the two resolution types, 1080p is often just referred to as 2k resolution.Īs you can imagine, the more pixels there are to display, the more important it is that your monitor has a high refresh rate, especially when it comes to gaming. In fact, many people would call it hyper-realistic, because of how many pixels are crammed into the display area. That’s why there had to be a new term to define the resolution scale, because 4k is so much clearer and more vibrant than 1080p. Officially labeled as 4K UHD, the total pixel resolution is 3840 by 2160. Game developers and graphics card manufacturers are focused on making and running games at 4k resolutions, which is twice the horizontal and vertical resolution of 1080p. When it comes to resolution, 4k is all the buzz right now. 1080p is considered the current standard for monitors, and all of the popular manufacturers including Dell, Acer, Samsung, LG, BenQ and Viewsonic offer a variety of 1080p monitors in their product line ups.

The reason why it’s specified as “Full HD” is because there are also some TVs and monitors that output at 720p (high definition but not quite as high as 1080p), which is 1280 by 720 pixels. If you see the term “Full HD” on a monitor box, that’s just a shorthand to denote its resolution, which would be 1920 by 1080, also called 1080p.

You’ve probably seen terms like HD and Full HD on the boxes of monitors and TVs, but what does that actually mean? As you may have guessed, HD simply refers to “High Definition”, which is just a quick way to refer to high quality video output.
