What is LCD Monitor Brightness?
Monitor brightness is measured in nits (candelas per meter squared). A typical CRT monitor brightness is 100 nits, whereas most LCD monitors vary between 200 to 300 nits. LCD monitors can have their brightness increased by simply making the backlight stronger. In the case of a CRT monitor, when the beam current is increased to also increase brightness, the size of the beam also increases, reducing resolution.
