EXPLANATION OTHER COMPUTER MONITOR
Monitor is a tool that is included in softcopy tools. Based on manufacturing technology, the monitor is divided into a CRT (cathode ray tube) and a flat screen (flat panel display). Flat screen itself is divided into three, namely the LCD, EL, and plasma.
Monitors the same size as the size of the television set, which is based on the long diagonal of the area aesthetically.
Monitors for desktop computers currently on the market generally is the monitor size of 14 "and 15". In addition there are monitors 17 ", 19" and 21 ". For laptops, size can be 12.1 ", 13.3", 14.1 "and 15 ".
Apart form the physical size of a monitor is the resolution size. The size of the resolution is determined by the number of pixels (picture element), which is the smallest point producer on the screen. For example, a resolution of 1024 x 768 means that the monitor contains 1024 lines of pixels and 768 columns of pixels. In other words the number of pixels that make up the monitor is at 1024 x 768 pieces. The higher the resolution, the better the quality of the display monitor.
Monitor Pixel Size
In addition to the monitor resolution on a monitor display quality is also affected by the dot pitch (distance between pixels). The closer the distance, the resulting picture will also be more subtle. For example, 28dp mean distance between two pixels is 28/100 mm.

Refresh rate indicates the amount of exposure re-pixels per second, so that the display pixels remain clear. The higher the refresh rate, then the display on the screen will look more real. Refresh rate is expressed in Hertz. Monitor with good quality will have a 75 Hz refresh rate, which means that in one second image is displayed on the monitor as many as 70 times.
Other parameters of a monitor is the color depth (color depth). The number of bits used to store the provisions of a pixel, determine the number of color variations that can be generated by a monitor. The number of bits are often referred to as color depth or color depth.
Below are the data bits that indicate the number of color variations that can be produced by a different number of bits.
1 bit = 2 (monochrome)
2bit = (CGA)
4bit = 16 (EGA)
8bit = 256 (VGA)
16bit = 65 536 (High Color, XGA)
24bit = 16,777,216 (True Color, SVGA)
32bit = 16,777,216 (True Color + Alpha Channel
