I'm not too hot on what makes a good TFT monitor, or if it will be more pleasant to look at than my old CRT, so I'm hoping people here can help me out.
I'm currently using a 19" AOC normal CRT monitor, and I'm finding that the text is a bit blurry around the edges and suchlike (at a res of 1280x1024, 85hz), so I'm considering a 19" TFT, to be specific a Dabs value 19" - (dabs.com, quicklinx: 4CKTWS). This gets a good 5-star rating from many people, and is nice and cheap.
The specs on the TFT are - 19inch diagonal, 8ms response time, 1440x900 res - are these OK?
How much larger / smaller will the visible screen area be on a 19" widescreen TFT screen compared to a 19" CRT?
What happens if I don't run it at the full 1440x900 res? Does it make text and suchlike unreadable? What happens in games at 800x600 or 1024x768?
many thanks for your help
