Fred, whether you are an amateur or a professional, you will want you images to look as good as you can get them. The majority of low end monitors are fine for surfing and for office use, but for gaming or image editing the criteria becomes a bit more demanding. There are several important things to consider when buying a computer and a monitor: that your graphics card is the best you can afford, and you have plenty of RAM to cope with edit programmes and file sizes; that the light doesn't fade at the sides when you move your head from side to side, and the screen is large enough to be comfortable when viewing and editing. Most monitors that are built for video editing and gaming have tremendous colour stability, and the more you pay for the monitor, the better the components. It really is down to what you want to achieve, and how much of an easy life you want with your editing. Any thing worth having comes at a price with everything I have found.
