I was looking around a list of monitors and found this two that have interested me. The only problem is that i don't know which one is better. They are basically the same in specs except input and contrast ratio.

This one has only VGA, but has 50M:1 Contrast Ratio

This one has both VGA and DVI, but has 5M:1 Contrast Ratio

Mobo: Gigabyte F2A75M-D3H
Processor: AMD A10-6800k Richland

Thanks in advance. BTW, these are the one that are available for me (the others in this price range doesn't even compare to this two.)

Or can I have something better with the same price?

edit: I'm from Philippines. This is for my main monitor, I'm just using a CRT now. HAHA

Don't know much about either monitors, I just know that simply using VGA for my graphics output on my old computer made everything look just horrible and smudgy and it sucks. I would just go with the one for DVI, especially with a relatively decent APU like that.

I know that there is a difference between VGA and DVI in terms of overall clarity. But would 50M:1 Contrast Ratio overcome this difference for being only a VGA in comparison to 5M:1 Contrast Ratio with DVI.
