In addition to the fact that DVI can be adapted to transmit a purely digital DVI-D signal or a combination of analog and digital DVI-I, there are two different versions that differ in data throughput. The original version is called single-link, and you can get by with it on all Full HD monitors at the standard 60Hz refresh rate. The dual-link version doubles the bandwidth and can be used for resolutions such as 2,560 × 1,440 at 60 Hz.
Ghosting is an effect seen on some monitors with fast image changes. It occurs especially on screens that have a slow response time. As the screen refreshes the image, the human eye can still perceive the previous image that was displayed. This causes the blurring or smearing affect to appear. It does not have to be shown on all background colors.
Input lag can be described as delay between input and output. It occurs mainly during fast scenes where there is a shift between images that comes from the graphics card (or the computer in general) and the real image at output.
Imagine a situation where there are two monitors connected to one computer. On the PC, you run a stopwatch and shoot the monitors in slow-motion mode. If you make a video, you will find the monitors differ slightly from the input lag and the stopwatches will show a different time.
Overdrive is a feature that shortens the monitor response and therefore speeds up image recovery. Monitors use a voltage change on individual pixels to make it happen - the bigger the voltage change, the faster the colours change. It also depends on the accuracy with which the tension changes.
Overdrive describes when the manufacturer increases the voltage to shorten the response. As a result, the pixel on the screen gets more energy than needed to display the colours properly, which causes a slight shift in colour.
Backlight bleeding is a phenomenon seen in LCD monitors, which is characterized by uneven backlight illumination, especially in dark scenes with minimal ambient illumination. It occurs mainly in IPS panels around the corners or edges. Sometimes this is called IPS glow or light bleeding.
A colour model is a colour space that uses the basic colours and blends them into the resulting colour.

A TV tuner (or television tuner) is a component that receives and decodes television broadcasts. With the tuner, you can display individual TV programs on a TV, monitor, or other devices. TV tuners are divided by the type of TV reception they can receive:
1) DVB-T / T2 - tuner for receiving digital terrestrial (aerial) television broadcasts
2) DVB-S / S2 - tuner for receiving satellite TV
3) DVB-C - tuner for receiving cable TV broadcasting
Some game monitors feature G-Sync or FreeSync. Both are used to sync the monitor's refresh rate with the graphics card, thus enhancing image smoothness while playing games. While G-Sync is compatible with selected NVIDIA, FreeSync is compatible with selected AMD graphics cards.
The viewing angle is the maximum angle from which you can still see the image on the monitor without changing the colour or contrast. Larger the viewing angles are better. The size of the viewing angle is directly related to the monitor panel type. While IPS and S-IPS monitors have the largest viewing angles (up to 178 degrees), PVA and MVA screens are a bit worse. TN monitors have the lowest viewing angles out of all of the monitor types.
This specifies the number of pixels that a monitor can draw, horizontally and vertically. In general, the higher the maximum resolution a monitor has, the more detailed the image will be and the larger the work or game area can be. The standard of today's monitors is to have Full HD resolution (1920×1080 pixels).
