While monitor calibration can help you get the best out of your screen, it can’t improve the display quality or increase the colour gamut – if colour accuracy is critical to your work, so is a good quality monitor.
For colour critical work, we would recommend that you invest in the highest grade monitor your budget will allow even if this means selecting a smaller sized monitor. If you are considering a high resolution monitor then it is important to take into account the computer and graphics card you will need to drive it. Other elements to take into consideration when purchasing a monitor is the aspect ratio and whether you intend to use a one or two monitor set-up.
