DISPLAY+DEVICE

DISPLAY DEVICE A Display Device, or more commonly referred to as the Monitor, is the device through which the PCʹs information is displayed graphically. This graphical information comes from the graphics card, and a display device must usually be plugged directly into the graphics card through the back of a PC to facilitate this. Modern PCs can utilize Televisions, LCD displays and sometimes multiple types of displays at once to output the graphics information. Display devices have the ability to display graphics at various resolutions, typically expressed in number of Pixels wide by number of Pixels high.

A Pixel is the smallest component of graphics, and the higher the resolution, the more pixels displayed on the display device and hence the clearer the image. At each resolution a display device can also redraw the image a number of times per second, referred to as the Refresh Rate. The higher the refresh rate the smoother your graphics will appear and the less flickering you will experience. In human body terms the display device is like a pen and a piece of paper, or a canvas used by a person to convey thoughts as images and text.
