HI, Welcome Aboard!

No, you don't need anything special to use with LCD monitors.

The fact that your video card provides a DVI output also gives you more flexibility when choosing your monitor - the DVI output means that the output doesn't need to be translated twice as it does on normal VGA cards-CRT monitors.

If you're going to choose an LCD monitor, make sure you get a chance to view it before you buy - this is one area where seeing is believing! The monitor is the one part of your system which will outlive the rest, so get the right one.
