A flat-panel display (FPD) computer monitor A cathode-ray tube (CRT) computer monitor A computer monitor is an output device that displays information in pictorial or textual form. A discrete monitor comprises a visual display , support electronics, power supply, housing , electrical connectors , and external user controls.
60 fps typically, some gaming monitors can do up to 540 fps; internally, display refreshed at up to 540 fps [18] [19] 60 fps typically, some can do 120 fps; internally, display refreshed at e.g. 480 or 600 fps [20] 60 fps typically. Up to 480 fps. [21] Flicker: Perceptible on lower refresh rates (60 fps and below) [22]

CRTs were the single most popular display technology used in television sets and computer monitors for over half a century; it was not until the 2000s that LCDs began to gradually replace them. A derivative of CRTs were storage tubes , which had the ability to retain information displayed on them, unlike standard CRTs which need to be refreshed ...
Color CRT displays in TV sets and computer monitors often have a built-in degaussing (demagnetizing) coil mounted around the perimeter of the CRT face. Upon power-up of the CRT display, the degaussing circuit produces a brief, alternating current through the coil which fades to zero over a few seconds, producing a decaying alternating magnetic ...
Fixed vs. CRT pixels Closeup of a fixed pixel display: pixels consist of 3 colored subpixels , and are arranged in a matrix, aligned both horizontally and vertically. A CRT monitor that has no clear distinction of individual pixels; the image is formed based on the resolution set by the electron gun.
Note the DE-9 connector, cryptic mode switch, contrast and brightness controls at front, and the V-Size and V-Hold knobs at rear, which allow the control of the scaling and signal to CRT refresh rate synchronization respectively. Various computer display standards or display modes have been used in the history of the personal computer.
CRT screens display images by moving beams of electrons very quickly across the screen. Once the beam of the monitor has reached the edge of the screen, it is switched off, and the deflection circuit voltages (or currents) are returned to the values they had for the other edge of the screen; this would have the effect of retracing the screen in ...
