So I'm getting ready to bite on a 22" LCD monitor, and have been eyeing the CHIMEI CMV-221D/A. I go to the product page on the website here
and find this info:
Pixel Pitch: 0.282 mm
Resolution: 1,680*1,050 WSXGA+
Display Color: 16.7 M (8 bits Hi-FRC)
Brightness: 330 cd/m2
Contrast Ratio: 800:1
Viewing Angle
Viewing Angle (Horizontal): 170°
Viewing Angle (Vertical): 160°
Scan Rate (Horizontal): 30 kHz ~ 82 kHz
Scan Rate (Vertical): 56 Hz ~ 76 Hz
Display Area: 474 mm x 296 mm
Response time: 5 ms
Now I thought that CHIMEI's were 6 bit TN panels, so I did some researching, and found this bit of info regarding 6bit and 8bit displays:
"FRC is an algorithm that can increase the colours displayed as
follows:-
6bits can display 0.26M colors
6bits + FRC can display 16.2M colors
6bits + Hi FRC can display 16.7M colors same as 8 bits
You can refer to the attachment for details.
Now I'm confused. So the CHIMEI says its 8 bit with HI FRC. Also I've been reading that 6bit + HI FRC does in fact = 16.7 million colors.
Can someone clue me into what is going on here? Is the CHIMEI 8 Bit, or 6 Bit with HI FRC. And if so, does that combo truly display 16.7 million colors?
I'm lost
