What’s the point of having a great refresh rate if you’re not going to use it for video viewing? As a PC monitor, what you should be looking for is Screen Resolution…the higher the number, the better. 27” or larger monitors that have low resolution are pointless and would give youa headache. If ind a 24” or 26” widescreen monitor ideal as a PC monitor, enabling me to open 2 panes of browsers side by side. My other suggestion for a PC application is to actually use 2 or 4 separate monitors. Again, this is all relative to what you will be doing.
