Why we like it: The Dell P3421W has a sturdy adjustable stand, lots of ports (including a USB-C port that can handle power, display, and data over a single cable), and a three-year warranty. And it has a built-in KVM switch that allows you to easily swap your keyboard, mouse, and video between two computers. The 1440p display has a 60 Hz refresh rate, which is great for typical office work, web browsing, and casual gaming.

Flaws but not dealbreakers: If you use your display in direct sunlight, this monitor might not be bright enough for you. It can also provide 65 W of power over USB-C, but some laptops require more. If you have a laptop with an Nvidia GeForce RTX GPU or an Intel Core i7 processor, you might need to keep the laptop plugged in to a separate charger or use a Thunderbolt dock that can provide the extra power.

Most ultrawide monitors are also curved. This design helps minimize viewing-angle problems—when you’re sitting centered, things on the far edges of the screen won’t look as washed out as they would on a flat display of a similar width. But this also makes ultrawide monitors inaccurate for precision tasks requiring straight lines, such as drawing, photo editing, or similar design work.

Our industrial display touch screen monitors can help your factory personnel and workshops handle complex industrial tasks on intuitive factory grade touch screens. Our wide range of rugged LCD displays with multi-touch and various touch technologies such as resisitive, SAW, optical imaging, projected capacitive and infrared are tough and suitable for virtually any industrial applications. We can help you choose the best touch screen technology and solution that fits best with your needs, and close the gap between your vision and implementation of the digital factory.

Can be updated remotely: Though not essential, it makes life a lot easier when you can edit and change your dashboard display from another device, without having to get up and adjust your TV setup.

Additionally, we’d also recommend that the device is energy efficient, small enough to store discreetly behind the screen, and can run in Kiosk mode. Kiosk mode is a setting that locks the device to a single application – meaning it will always display your dashboard when powered on.

We do not recommend ‘home’ screen sharing devices like Apple TV or Chromecast, at least as a long term solution. With these devices, you need to set them up every time you wish to display your dashboard. Doing this every day is frustrating.

It is essential to verify if the problem is inherent with the monitor, video card (GPU) or video settings on your computer. A straightforward way to identify this is to connect the computer to a known-good external monitor or TV and ensure that the display cable (S-video, VGA, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-C, or Thunderbolt 3) is firmly connected to the video port on the computer and the monitor.

If the issue persists on the other monitor it may be due to the video card (GPU) or video settings and not the monitor, go to the step Verify display or video issue in Windows Safe Mode. Else go to the next step.

Performance issues may occur if there is any type of damage that is caused to the display cables or the LCD screen. LCD screen may show that symptoms like LCD screen stops working, work intermittently, color mismatch, flickering, display horizontal or vertical lines if there is damage to the display cables or the LCD screen.

Dell monitors can be reset to factory default settings using the on-screen display (OSD) menu. This can be accessed using the buttons or joystick that is available on the Dell monitor. For step-by-step instructions to reset a Dell monitor to factory default settings, see the User Guide of your Dell monitor at the Dell Manuals website.

Display settings like brightness, refresh rate, resolution, and power management may affect the performance of your Dell monitor. Changing the display settings can help resolve several types of video issues.

Widescreen displays (16:9)are now the norm and. Some standard/square screens offer good value and may be preferred if horizontal space is limited, but are now more common on laptop computers.

The most common resolution is 1920 x 1080, also known as 1080p. 1080p is an ideal resolution for monitors 21- to 24-inches. Higher resolutions may be preferred for larger screens.

Refresh rate:A measure of how many times a display can update the picture in a second, measured in hertz (Hz). Standard monitors refresh at 60Hz. A monitor with a faster refresh time results in smoother movements to make things like scrolling look more fluid.

Gloss or matte: Depending on the lighting of the room, screen coatings can be an important factor for overall viewing experience. Glossy screen coatings tend to enhance contrast for a more vibrant look, but also reflect their surroundings more readily when powered down or displaying dark images. Matte monitor displays tend to look more dull, but work better under challenging lighting conditions, like across from large windows.

Check for ample and relevant connections, like USB or HDMI ports. Make sure that the input connections on the monitor match the output connections on your computer. Some monitors with USB-C or Thunderbolt ports may be able to charge your computer and display content through a single connection.

Monitors originally qualified for the ENERGY STAR label in 1992. The Version 8.0 ENERGY STAR Displays specification covers computer monitors and signage displays, including all products with touch screen functionality. ENERGY STAR certified computer monitors must meet a total energy consumption (TEC) requirement that takes in their power draw in On Mode and Sleep Mode and varies depending on screen area and resolution. Signage displays must draw 0.5 watts or less in Sleep Mode and Off Mode, while On Mode power requirements vary according to screen area and resolution. Additional TEC and power allowances are also provided for select features. External power supplies (EPS) packaged with displays must meet level VI performance requirements under the International Efficiency Marking Protocol and include the level VI marking.

Find Display resolution, and then choose an option. It"s usually best to stick with the one that"s marked (Recommended). Monitors can support resolutions that are lower than their native resolutions, but text won"t look as sharp and the display might be small, centered on the screen, edged with black, or stretched.

Roll back your video driver to the previous version if the pink screen occurred immediately after a driver update (you’ll need to be logged in as an administrator in order to manage drivers). Click "Start," type “device manager” (without quotes) in the box and select “Device Manager” when it appears in the search results. Double-click “Display Adapters” and double-click your video adapter. Click “Roll back driver” and click “Yes.” Reboot the system to see if the issue persists.

Return your monitor’s display settings to the factory default if the pink screen tinting appeared after any changes were made in the settings. Most monitors have a Menu button near the Power button, and you can scroll among the various options using the monitor’s directional keys, which might be arrow keys, or “+” and “-“ keys. In most cases, the factory reset option is located in the main menu.

Turn off the monitor and unplug the video cable from both your computer and the monitor. Make sure that the cable itself is not damaged or kinked, and that none of its connector pins is bent or broken. If the cable is damaged, replacing it should solve the problem. Even if the cable does not appear damaged, it might still be faulty, so try swapping it with another and see if the display returns to normal.

Reboot the computer, then tap "F8" to pull up the Windows Advanced Startup Options menu. Select “Safe Mode” from the list and press “Enter.” Log in as you normally would. If the screen is no longer pink, a faulty video driver is probably to blame. Continue following the steps below. If the screen is still pink, you might be looking at a faulty video adapter. Depending on your computer’s hardware configuration, repairing a faulty video adapter may involve replacing an add-on card or replacing the motherboard entirely. Unless you have some experience with computer repair, either of these tasks should be performed by your IT department or a technician at a computer repair shop.

A common size for LCDs manufactured for small consumer electronics, basic mobile phones and feature phones, typically in a 1.7" to 1.9" diagonal size. This LCD is often used in portrait (128×160) orientation. The unusual 5:4 aspect ratio makes the display slightly different from QQVGA dimensions.

Half the resolution in each dimension as standard VGA. First appeared as a VESA mode (134h=256 color, 135h=Hi-Color) that primarily allowed 80x30 character text with graphics, and should not be confused with CGA (320x200); QVGA is normally used when describing screens on portable devices (PDAs, pocket media players, feature phones, smartphones, etc.). No set colour depth or refresh rate is associated with this standard or those that follow, as it is dependent both on the manufacturing quality of the screen and the capabilities of the attached display driver hardware, and almost always incorporates an LCD panel with no visible line-scanning. However, it would typically be in the 8-to-12 bpp (256–4096 colours) through 18 bpp (262,144 colours) range.

Various Apple, Atari, Commodore, Sinclair, Acorn, Tandy and other home and small-office computers introduced from 1977 through to the mid-1980s. They used televisions for display output and had a typical usable screen resolution from 102–320 pixels wide and usually 192–256 lines high, in non-interlaced (NI) mode for a more stable image (displaying a full image on each 1/50th / 1/60th-second field, instead of splitting it across each frame). The limited resolution led to displays with a characteristic wide overscan border around the active area. Some more powerful machines were able to display higher horizontal resolutions—either in text-mode alone or in low-colour bitmap graphics, and typically by halving the width of each pixel, rather than physically expanding the display area—but were still confined in the vertical dimension by the relatively slow horizontal scanning rate of a domestic TV set. These same standards—albeit with progressively greater colour depth and upstream graphical processing ability—would see extended use and popularity in TV-connected game consoles right through to the end of the 20th century.

Atari ST line. High resolution monochrome mode using a custom non-interlaced monitor with the slightly lower vertical resolution (in order to be an integer multiple of low and medium resolution and thus utilize the same amount of RAM for the framebuffer) allowing a "flicker free" 71.25 Hz refresh rate, higher even than the highest refresh rate provided by VGA. All machines in the ST series could also use colour or monochrome VGA monitors with a proper cable or physical adapter, and all but the TT could display 640x400 at 71.25 Hz on VGA monitors.

The single fixed-screen mode used in first-generation (128k and 512k) Apple Mac computers, launched in 1984, with a monochrome 9" CRT integrated into the body of the computer. Used to display one of the first mass-market full-time GUIs, and one of the earliest non-interlaced default displays with more than 256 lines of vertical resolution. (Early models used a 384×256 screen; both standards are cut down from the 720×364 of the preceding Lisa model)

Very nearly 3:2 (to within 0.2%); 256:171 exact. Displayed with square pixels on a moderately wide-screen monitor (equivalent to 16:10.67 in modern terms).

Later, larger monitors (15" and 16") allowed use of an SVGA-like binary-half-megapixel 832×624 resolution (at 75 Hz) that was eventually used as the default setting for the original, late-1990s iMac. Even larger 17" and 19" monitors could attain higher resolutions still, when connected to a suitably capable computer, but apart from the 1152×870 "XGA+" mode discussed further below, Mac resolutions beyond 832×624 tended to fall into line with PC standards, using what were essentially rebadged PC monitors with a different cable connection. Mac models after the II (Power Mac, Quadra, etc.) also allowed at first 16-bit High Colour (65,536, or "Thousands of" colours), and then 24-bit True Colour (16.7M, or "Millions of" colours), but much like PC standards beyond XGA, the increase in colour depth past 8 bpp was not strictly tied to changing resolution standards.

A monochrome display capable of sharp text and graphics for its time. Very popular with the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet application, which was one of PC"s first killer apps. Introduced in 1982.

With on-board 2D and 3D acceleration introduced in 1984 for the 8-bit PC-bus, intended for CAD applications, a triple-board display adapter with built-in processor, and displaying high-resolution, full-colour graphics at a 60 Hz frame rate.

Introduced on MCA-based PS/2 models in 1987, it replaced the digital TTL signaling of EGA and earlier standards with analog RGBHV signaling, using the synonymous VGA connector. As with EGA, the VGA standard actually encompasses a set of different resolutions; 640×480 is sometimes referred to as "VGA resolution" today, however as per the original standard this mode actually only supports 16 colours (4 bpp) at 60 Hz. Other common display modes also defined as VGA include 320×200 at 256 colours (8 bpp) (standard VGA resolution for DOS games that stems from halving the pixel rate of 640×400, but doubling color depth) and a text mode with 720×400 pixels; these modes run at 70 Hz and use non-square pixels, so 4:3 aspect correction is required for correct display.

Furthermore, VGA displays and adapters are generally capable of Mode X graphics, an undocumented mode to allow increased non-standard resolutions, most commonly 320×240 (with 8 bpp and square pixels) at 60 Hz.

Precursor to XGA and released shortly after VGA in 1987. 8514/A cards displayed interlaced video at 43.5 Hz in a 1024×768 resolution, and at 640×480, 60 Hz non-interlaced, both with up to 256 colours.

The high-resolution mode introduced by 8514/A became a de facto general standard in a succession of computing and digital-media fields for more than two decades, arguably more so than SVGA, with successive IBM and clone videocards and CRT monitors (a multisync monitor"s grade being broadly determinable by whether it could display 1024×768 at all, or show it interlaced, non-interlaced, or "flicker-free"), LCD panels (the standard resolution for 14" and 15" 4:3 desktop monitors, and a whole generation of 11–15" laptops), early plasma and HD ready LCD televisions (albeit at a stretched 16:9 aspect ratio, showing down-scaled material), professional video projectors, and most recently, tablet computers.

An extension to VGA defined by VESA for IBM PC-compatible computers in 1989 meant to take advantage of video cards that exceeded the minimum 256 kB defined in the VGA standard. For instance, one of the early supported modes was 800×600 in 16 colours at a slightly lower 56 Hz refresh rate, leading to 800×600 sometimes being referred to as "SVGA resolution" today.

Over the course of the early-to-mid-1990s, "SVGA" became a quasi-standard term in PC games, typically referring to a 640×480 resolution using 256 colours (8 bpp) at 60 Hz refresh rate. Many other higher and lower modes were standardized in the VESA BIOS Extensions, leading to the establishment of "SVGA" and "VESA" as catch-all terms encompassing output modes that surpassed the original VGA specifications.

An IBM display standard introduced in 1990. XGA built on 8514/A"s existing 1024×768 mode and added support for "high colour" (65,536 colours, 16 bpp) at 640×480. The second revision ("XGA-2") was a more thorough upgrade, offering higher refresh rates (75 Hz and up, non-interlaced, up to at least 1024×768), improved performance, and a fully programmable display engine capable of almost any resolution within its physical limits. For example, 1280×1024 (5:4) or 1360×1024 (4:3) in 16 colours at 60 Hz, 1056×400 [14h] Text Mode (132×50 characters); 800×600 in 256 or 64k colours; and even as high as 1600×1200 (at a reduced 50 Hz scan rate) with a high-quality multisync monitor (or an otherwise non-standard 960×720 at 60 Hz on a lower-end one capable of high refresh rates at 800×600, but only interlaced mode at 1024×768).I, 640×480×16 NI, high-res text) were commonly used outside Windows and other hardware-abstracting graphical environments.

Although not an official name, this term is now used to refer to 1152×864, which is the largest 4:3 array yielding less than a binary megapixel (2^20, 1048576 pixels, 1048 decimal kilopixels), thus allowing the greatest "normal" resolution at common colour depths with a standard amount of video memory (128 kB, 512 kB, 1 MB, 2 MB, etc.). Variants of this were used by Apple Computer (at 1152×870) and Sun Microsystems (at 1152×900) for 21" CRT displays.

A widely used aspect ratio of 5:4 (1.25:1) instead of the more common 4:3 (1.33:1), meaning that even 4:3 pictures and video will appear letterboxed on the narrower 5:4 screens. This is generally the native resolution—with, therefore, square pixels—of standard 17" and 19" LCD monitors. It was often a recommended resolution for 17" and 19" CRTs also, though as they were usually produced in a 4:3 aspect ratio, it either gave non-square pixels or required adjustment to show small vertical borders at each side of the image. Allows 24-bit colour in 4 MB of graphics memory, or 4-bit colour in 640 kB.

An enhanced version of the WXGA format. This display aspect ratio was common in widescreen notebook computers, and many 19" widescreen LCD monitors until ca. 2010.

This display aspect ratio is the native resolution for many 24" widescreen LCD monitors, and is expected to also become a standard resolution for smaller-to-medium-sized wide-aspect tablet computers in the near future (as of 2012).

A wide version of the UXGA format. This display aspect ratio was popular on high-end 15" and 17" widescreen notebook computers, as well as on many 23–27" widescreen LCD monitors, until ca. 2010. It is also a popular resolution for home cinema projectors, besides 1080p, in order to show non-widescreen material slightly taller than widescreen (and therefore also slightly wider than it might otherwise be), and is the highest resolution supported by single-link DVI at standard colour depth and scan rate (i.e., no less than 24 bpp and 60 Hz non-interlaced)

This is the highest resolution that generally can be displayed on analog computer monitors (most CRTs), and the highest resolution that most analogue video cards and other display transmission hardware (cables, switch boxes, signal boosters) are rated for (at 60 Hz refresh). 24-bit colour requires 9 MB of video memory (and transmission bandwidth) for a single frame. It is also the native resolution of medium-to-large latest-generation (2012) standard-aspect tablet computers.

A version of the XGA format, the native resolution for many 30" widescreen LCD monitors. Also, the highest resolution supported by dual-link DVI at a standard colour depth and non-interlaced refresh rate (i.e. at least 24 bpp and 60 Hz). Used on MacBook Pro with Retina display (13.3"). Requires 12 MB of memory/bandwidth for a single frame.

Four times the resolution of 1080p. Requires a dual-link DVI, category 2 (high-speed) HDMI, DisplayPort or a single Thunderbolt link, and a reduced scan rate (up to 30 Hz); a DisplayPort 1.2 connection can support this resolution at 60 Hz, or 30 Hz in stereoscopic 3D.

Typically referred to as Ultra HD (UHD) 5K in consumer displays. 21:9 aspect ratio version of UHD 4K, defined in CTA-861-G, or resulting from 3840x2160 with 4:3 pixel ratio in HDMI 2.0/2.1.

All monitors need a bezel, so “bezel-less” essentially means “very minimal bezel.” A bezel-less monitor has a greater screen size without increasing the size of the device itself, so you get more screen to work on without impacting the layout of your workstation.

That’s why Samsung offers monitors like the S30B. Its borderless design means it is, effectively, all screen. The amount of screen relative to the amount of bezel makes for a more expansive and immersive viewing experience.

For occupations that require viewing multiple programs and tabs at once, such as computer programming or finance, a widescreen monitor is practically a necessity. They allow workers to access multiple windows, rather than having to constantly minimize and reopen them. Seeing all relevant information at a glance is easier, less tiring and more efficient for workers. Recent research suggests productivity benefits can approach 60 percent when using a single widescreen display.

A bezel-less design makes for a seamless viewing experience with a dual monitor setup. Positioning two (or more) S30B monitors side by side effectively creates one giant screen, where you can view multiple windows or very large graphics without clunky, awkward bezels getting in the way. It makes glancing from screen to screen (or moving a pointer around them) a free-flowing and intuitive experience that minimizes distractions.

In a multi-monitor setup, monitors that support daisy chaining are ideal. In the past, a computer and a couple of monitors would have been accompanied by a mess of cables and connections. DisplayPort In functionality in monitors like the S30B means productivity no longer comes at the expense of tidiness. A single DisplayPort 1.2 Cable connects monitors and keeps clutter to an absolute minimum.

A monitor that responds to its user rapidly and delivers stable content with minimal image tearing can only help multitaskers. Refresh rates play a role in a smooth viewing experience, but it’s not the only factor. The class-leading technology AMD FreeSync allows monitor refresh rates to synchronize with a computer’s graphics processing unit, producing seamless imagery without interruption.

From bezel-less designs, ultra-wide screens, USB-C connectivity and incredibly rapid, low-lag images, Samsung hasthe perfect monitorto meet your specific requirements. And discover how monitor color technology powers a creative and fast-paced workspace in thisfree, complete guide.
