So I've tried all the adjustments to make it more bright, but it still is too dark. It's playable, but if the room light is to bright, it definitely takes some squinting to play.

Do I need a new monitor all together, or can I get away with just doing a capkit? I know this has probably been covered before, but just want to make sure I get the right answer.
 
Yep that's a WG K7000 monitor. A cap kit would possibly help, but you may want to change out he flyback transformer as the ones with the white adjustment knobs seem to fail more often. In fact I ordered 2 new ones today to replace the only 2 K7000's in my games that still have them. You could also have a weak picture tube but you'd need access to a tube tester/rejuvenator to test it. If it comes down to that someone local to you might be able to help.
