Display
Monitor Type PC Monitor  
Screen type Flat-panel (TFT) The most common types of screen today are picture tubes. However, flat screens are becoming increasingly popular. The advantage of a flat screen is that it takes less room on the desk, transmits less radiation and is energy-saving.
Screen size 20.1 Inch The size of the screen indicates the picture surface area. Screen size is measured diagonally from corner to corner.
Widescreen No  
Technology Active Matrix  
Resolution
Dot pitch 0.255 mm This is the distance between two dots of the same colour. This is generally measured diagonally, but for aperture grille monitors it is sometimes measured horizontally.
Maximum resolution 1600x1200 pixels Indicates the maximum resolution the screen can display. The resolution is stated in pixels.
Frequency at max. resolution 60 Hz The number of times an image is displayed in one second is called the refresh rate. It is expressed in Hertz (Hz), so a monitor with a refresh rate of 75 Hz "rewrites" the same image 75 times a second ...

Recommended resolution 1600x1200 pixels  
Frequency at recommended resolution 60 Hz  
Bandwidth
Horizontal frequency 92 kHz The speed that a monitor draws a single scan line, called the "horizontal frequency," is measured in kilohertz (kHz). The process repeats, painting line after line, until the screen is filled.
Vertical frequency 85 Hz The speed that a monitor draws an entire screen, called the "vertical refresh rate" or "frequency," is measured in hertz (Hz).
Bandwidth 165 MHz The bandwidth is the amount of data that a monitor can handle per second. Approximate bandwidth requirements are 87MHz for 1024x768@85Hz and 145MHz for 1280x1024@85Hz.

Pixel response time (rise+fall) 8 total, ms Pixel response time is as important when choosing a LCD monitor what refresh rate is for CRTs. The response time is the time, which a TFT cell requires to switch on and switch off. For standard office ...

Contrast 1000:1 Contrast is measured as the ratio between the light intensity of the brightest and the darkest point of an image. High contrast values improve readability and ergonomics.
Brightness 300 nit (cd/m2) Brightness is the emitted luminous power over a specified area. Brightness is another point, on which LCD monitors are superior to CRT devices. Traditional monitors create approximately 80 to 100 cd/m² (candela per meter square). For LCDs, values below 200 cm/m² are not acceptable.
Horizontal viewing angle 170 degrees The viewing angle is the angle from the centre of the image where you can still see the image. Ergonomic requirements are at least 120 degrees horizontally.
Vertical viewing angle 170 degrees The viewing angle is the angle from the centre of the image where you can still see the image. Ergonomic requirements are at least 90 degrees vertically.
Connections
DVI/VGA Input DVI/VGA DVI is a digital connection type for digitally transferring pictures.
VGA refers to an older analogue connection and is today (2007) the lowest common base for most, if not all, graphic cards.
Number of Inputs Single  
Video connections 15-pin mini D-sub,29-pin Digital DVI-I The standard analogue connector is called D-sub (HD-15). There are also different digital connectors, DVI-I and DVI-D. DVI–I can be used for both analogue and digital signals, while DVI-D is digital only with a higher data transfer rate.
USB hub Yes With an USB-hub in your monitor you can easily plug in new devices such as scanners and memory card readers without having to crawl under your desk to reach the USB-connections on your computer.
Hub Function 2xUSB  
Appearence
Color Black A white or grey monitor will be less straining to your eyes than a black one. This is also the reason why black monitors only bear the TCO ’95 marking even though their white cousins are awarded TCO ’99.
Features
Built-in Speakers No Generally the speakers inbuilt in monitors are very basic with only a couple of watts per channel, so they’re not something you’d want to listen to high quality CDs or DVDs on, but could prove handy i ...
