Hello, gsrajahganesh! Well, it depends on your purpose. If you like to play games on your computer, I suggest you to buy a CRT monitor because it has faster response than LCD. An LCD screen can also achieve that performance when you have a compatible video card in it. But LCD is better than CRT because it has less power consumption so you can save energy and it takes longer time to heat up unlike on CRT. A CRT display heats up faster because inside the tube, it has a heater inside to make it active and it requires more power, it also releases more radiation. LCD screens are available in many sizes, it is light and slim so it also saves space and you can choose any resolution you want. Have a nice day!
