I've been looking around latley, in the mood to buy a new monitor (CRT/LCD).
I was checking out the webpage of a local computer store (www.pccanada.com), and noticed that they have the Samsung 172x available as a special order.
I remember there was a rather large thread about this monitor a while back, with a lot of people raving about it.
Here's a link to Samsung's page with the specs.
Pretty damn impressive specs, including 12MS response time. Dunno if this is a typo or actually true.
Seems like a very nice LCD. Has anyone had any first hand experience with this screen, or knows if it's any good.
I'm basically looking for something that displays sharp clear colours, as well as text, and is good for gaming too boot
Cheers,
Mr. Pain
-- Btw, I'm in Canada, or else I'd have probably jumped on that dell 2001fp bandwagon
edit: The 12ms could just be the rise time, with a 4ms fall time equaling 16ms total response time? Hrrrm...
Still, looks like a good LCD, wonder if it's Samsung's on Screen or if it's the AU Optronics one.
