Refresh rate
Gaming monitors like the Optix series refresh at 144Hz or more for smoother motion, but the graphics card has to output that rate over DisplayPort or a capable HDMI port.

Frequently asked questions
Do VGA and DVI monitors work with new PCs?
Yes, through an adapter. DisplayPort or HDMI to DVI is a simple passive adapter, while VGA needs an active converter. A digital connection gives the sharpest picture.
Are built-in monitor speakers any good?
They're fine for system sounds and calls, but small and quiet. Music and video sound better through external speakers or a headset.
What does 1ms response time mean?
How quickly a pixel changes color, which affects motion blur in fast games. Office work doesn't need the fastest figures, and makers measure them in different ways.
