Just a helpful tip. Before you go buy a new monitor or video card, make sure the monitor cable is plugged in tight and screwed in on both sides of the plug. I got a new monitor the other day and the colors were all washed out and gray looking. I thought I had got a bad one till I noticed the colors would get brighter when I wiggled the cable. Turned out of the standoffs was missing on my video card. The previous monitor didn't seem to mind it, I guess the pins were a little bigger and stayed put without the connector being screwed in or something. But this new monitor needed to be clamped down tight. When I got another standoff and screwed in the connector the picture and colors came in crystal clear.
