desktop monitor

Workstation visual output

A desktop monitor is a display screen designed to sit on a desk and connect to a computer, as opposed to the built-in screens of laptops or tablets.

The term distinguishes these external displays from other monitor types—portable monitors, wall-mounted displays, or the monitoring of computer systems.

I need a larger desktop monitor for video editing.
