An LCD monitor does not have a better resolution than a CRT, generally speaking. Very old and cheap CRT's (pre 1995) have lower resolutions than newer models. LCD's are limited to "Native Mode" which means that they will produce images at higher or non-native modes, but these are lower quality images. Good CRT monitors (professional level monitors) will produce images in resolutions much higher than LCD monitors, and at refresh rates that are triple (or more: for fast moving video FPS type games). They also have better contrast ratio's, better color reproduction (higher number of colors), no motion blur or screen sheering, wider view angles, better environmental light adaptation, no dead pixels, no banding, no hatching flicker. Most non professional CRT's will still beat a LCD hands down on these same issues. LCD's are also limited life (1/4 or less) than a CRT. You only save electric usage(LCD 5/65, CRT 30/150 watts), and desk space for an LCD.

A CRT monitor yields better quality than an LCD monitor does?

As LCD display technology improves, it now beats CRT for clarity and image stability. CRT based computer monitors are no longer mass produced and existing CRT monitors are usually several years old. As they age, the image becomes softer so there will be few CRT displays that can compare with a modern LCD screen.

Can a graphics card affect your LCD monitor resolution?

Yes and no. A monitor can support several different screen resolutions. A CRT monitor can technically support any screen resolution sent to it, although the screen may be unreadable at extremely high resolutions. An LCD monitor supports a strict number of resolutions, but almost always more than one. The resolution that your screen actually uses (or tries to use) is specified by the video card, not the monitor. So purchasing a high-definition monitor won't do you any good if your video card is only capable of displaying 1024x768.


What is the different between CRT and LCD?

The CRT monitor. These are heavy, use a lot of desk space and electricity. It is the oldest technology used by monitors and is based on the cathode ray tube technology that was developed for television. Monitors are made with better parts which give a much higher display resolution and picture sharpness than a television. This type of monitor is no longer popular. The LCD monitor. Often called a Flat panel display. It is a newer technology than CRT. LCD monitors use much less desk space, are lightweight and use less electricity than CRT. This type of screen has been used for many years in the screens of laptop and notebook computers. It is also used for screens in every mobile phone, and many handheld technologies. It can produce a very high quality and stable display of graphics and text.
