Monitor

for the computer i am building i currently chose this one http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec....iteria=BA20416 but i have been told from a diffrent post that this wouldnt be good for graphic arts or pics or anything. look at the thread "500 $ computer" and you will see what i am using it for

Definitely not a good monitor for graphics stuff because of the 0.28 dot pitch (meaning your images wont be as sharp as they could be). Look for a lower d.p (0.25 or lower if possible) if you want to do serious graphics stuff

is this one any better? http://www.mwave.com/mwave/Skusearch...iteria=3314580

Absolutely Now thats just from a physical perspective ... if you're really into digital imagry and stuff you'll want to look into color matching and such

no this is good enough for know the person im building it for doesnt want to pay over 500 $. thanks

The first one had a .28 diagonal dot pitch. The second was 20 horizontal and 25 vertical. Thats like 32 diagonal. How is that better?
