Q. People look fatter when I view them from my widescreen LCD monitor. Is there a way to make it look normal? Also, what is Hz? Mine is set to 75Hz. There's 60, 70, and 75. What's that?
Thanks!
Thanks!
A. The reason people look fatter is because your display adapter is in a non widescreen resolution.
The resolution of your display is specified in pixels width * height. Non widescreen monitors use a ration of 4:3 between width and height whereas widescreen monitors use a ratio of 16:9. When the wide screen monitor tries to display the 4:3 image it stretches it sideways to fit the 16:9 screen hence the people look fat.
Chances are your current display settings are 4:3 which will be someting like 1024x768 or 1280x960.
You can change this to a widescreen setting in Windows.
Right click on an unused area of your desktop and select properties from the pop up menu.
This will bring up the display properties panel, go to the settings panel and use the screen resolution slider to select a resolution where the ratio between width and height is 16:9 e.g 1280x1024 would be a good starting point .
Click the apply button then click OK in the dialog box which pops up on the screen.
The Hz setting is the refresh rate of the monitor, this is how many times it redraws the screen in a second. So 60 Hz = 60 refreshes per second while 70 Hz = 70 refreshes per second. Higher settings give less flicker, however you may find that it is fine at 60Hz.

A. The samsung is better. When looking at LCD monitors, the higher contrast ratio and the faster response time are both important factors. Samsung also has a good reputation for video products.
