LCD Monitors
==LCD Monitors==
All LCD monitors have a native resolution which all output must scale to, unlike CRTs.
====TN 120hz displays====*Native resolution which all output must scale towith hacks can display motion at the same level as a CRT through backlight strobing.

*Fairly long [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_time_%28technology%29 response times] (may differ between panels)Cheap prices
*Most common for high refresh rate displays, such as 120Hz and 144Hz. *Viewing angles WILL distort colors. Washing them out, inverting them, etc. ====IPS panels====*Vivid colors and contrast
*Good viewing angles
**Though IPS glow will be far more visible and troublesome the farther you get from straight on
 
*Fairly long [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_time_%28technology%29 response times] (will differ between panels)
**This causes motion blur, ghosting, and delay.
 
*Some monitors can be 'overclocked' to run at higher refresh rates. Such as the [http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/qnix_qx2710.htm Qnix QX2710], which can run at 120Hz
**But most cannot resolve every frame of such refresh rates due to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_time_%28technology%29 response times]
 
*IPS glow. A form of backlight bleed that varies with viewing angle. Affects dark areas. Generally makes IPS panels have terrible black levels.
 
====VA panels====
*Good black levels. Some rivalling CRTs, once properly configured.
 
*High contrast levels
 
*Vivid colors
*Massive resolutions availableMostly good viewing angles**Some panels may have an issue called 'black crush' which darkens the panel when viewed straightforward.
*Korean monitors such as Qnix QX2710 can run at 120HzGenerally mid range [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_time_%28technology%29 response times] (will differ between panels).
*At least one officially supported, out of the box, 120Hz panel, the [http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/eizo_fg2421.htm Eizo Foris FG2412]. No 'overclocking' necessary.
