Dell 2707 settings for 360 and PC?

[L.L. Cool M]

Hello,

Many of the reviews have said that out of the box the Dell 2707WFP has poor settings. I was wondering if any of you intelligent fellows with your Star Trek calibrators have found some good settings for this monitor? I will be connecting an Xbox 360 Elite to the DVI port, and a laptop to the VGA port if those specifics help.

I tried asking in the huge Dell 2707 post, but no-one replied. I'm surprised that I haven't been able to find settings for this monitor somewhere. I know each monitor is different, but there should still be some generic 'good' settings. My monitor is getting delivered within a week.

Thanks for any help.

IMHO most of these "reviews" come from people who are very skeptical about graphics and color, etc. I personally have never seen a dell monitor shipped with bad color. I think you will be very happy with it when you try it out for yourself. Goodluck!

Honestly, it would be pointless - if you need a high degree of color accuracy, someone else's settings will be no use to you, there's too many variables to take into account. If not, don't worry about calibration, just set up the monitor by eye in the way that looks best *to you*, and enjoy.
