Hello

I was in the same situation a few days ago, but i decided to buy the 173P+ as soon as it arrives to Estonia. The 173P+'s contrast and viewing angle are very good. Unfortunately the 8ms gray-to-gray is about 20ms, what means that there will be some visible ghosting in games.

I haven't ordered the monitor yet, so if anyone has one of these monitors, or knows more than me, could share that information with me (about ghosting, color quality and stuff like that).

-Thanks

Im considering the 172X..
i mean it might have 12ms... but at least its true 12ms...
although the viewing angle is bad (160/140) and some say that the colors arent that great on the 172X...

But im gonna research on the 172X and its colors...

Although not the exact same model, I just got a 930B (8ms, 700:1) and, while the viewing angles aren't amazing, the ghosting is negligible (sp?), and I really love the colors. I came from a 21" Dell Trinitron (very nice monitor, btw.), and I haven't thought about switching back once. I have been surfing, gaming, and watching movies, and it all looks great.

I vote samsung!
