Display Technology

• TN-panel (bad Viewing Angle Stability (TN-Film solves that), short Reaction Times, mediocre Color Precision, Cheap)

• VA-panel (high Contrast, better Colors, long Reaction Times)

• IPS-panel (extremely high Color Precision, high Viewing Angle Stability, high Contrast, good Reaction Times, little Expensive)

• LED Backlit Displays are the standard for most panels (thin and energy efficient)

• OLED (This Display Technology is not perfect yet and extremely expensive, so there are not a lot of PC-Monitors yet)

• Quantum Dot (new technology, which is not as vibrant as OLED, but has better reaction times, no burn-in.)

Ports

• HDMI (most common, but you need at least version 2.0 to get more than 30Hz@4K)

• Display Port (very common version 1.2 is enough for 60Hz@4K)

• DVI (not very modern, but still used pretty often)

• VGA (pretty old, analog)

• USB-C + Thunderbolt 3 (you can display 4K videos, transfer data and charge your compatible device, all at the same time)

• Height and Angle adjustable

• glare/nonglare/... display

• Anti-Tearing (NVIDIA G-Sync / AMD FreeSync)

• Integrated Speakers / AudioOut
