I currently have HDMI running on my LCD tv at home for my new gaming computer. It's a pretty sexy computer and i need a monitor because the tv just isn't cutting it. I don't know alot about monitors except that i don't want to go below a 20". Any suggestions about a specific monitor or a company or a website and what i can expect to pay would be helpful thank you :-)

Well every brand produces gems and lemons so best research according to your target price range by reading reviews online, etc

for a contrast ratio most monitors are 1000:1 standard, 20,000/1,000,000:1 dynamic or ASCR.
