How does a CRT compare to the 6bit and 8bit LCDs?

Right now I'm using an old CRT. It's VGA with the DVI connector for the graphics card.

I don't really know anything about displays. Does the fact that I'm using an adaptor mean that it's only displaying as good as VGA? Getting a DVI monitor would improve this right?

How would my setup right now compare to 6bit and 8bit? If it's anything like 6bit then I'll probably get that because my current display is fine for the graphics I make and I need something good for gaming. 8bit wouldn't be as good for gaming, but it would be better for the colors.

Any suggestions on what might work best?

Thanks,

-FMA
