Picking out a monitor for a desktop computer can be confusing and overwhelming. Follow these steps to take the worry out of your next monitor purchase.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Pick a size that will fit your budget when choosing a flat screen LCD monitor. Remember that sometimes if the size is popular it may be a better value then a smaller screen.

  2. Step 2

    Pick something that has a full warranty, rather then the cheapest model. A real saving Grace is when your screen dies and is covered under a full warranty.

  3. Step 3

    Make certain that the screen is either SVGA or DVI, or both. SVGA is the usual connector that computers have been using for years. DVI is the type of plug used in a digital assembly.

  4. Step 4

    There are many types of features and brands of LCD Monitors on the market today. As with most high-end components, the best are not always the most expensive. Some of the lower priced units, or something on sale might be just right for your budget and need.
