Hey guys,
I have bought a samsung 17'' LCD monitor model 173P+ and I currently own a crt of 19''. I was wondering if its just me but the pictures and the videos on the lcd are way uglier than on the crt one but text and general luminosity is better on crt. Now i don't know what to do. Should I keep my lcd that i bought or keep the old crt. I kinda listen to some movies (4-5 per week)....
umm..that's a tough call!
Thanks |

| LCD is better and it uses less power and less space:disbelief |

| monitors are much better for gaming, watching films etc due to the faster refresh rates and colour depths afaik, where as tft's have ghosting but are brighter, clearer, compact. |

What an ignorant statement.
LCD's have a smaller foot print on the desk but the colouring, shadowing, dead pixels, trailing, among other things aren't just worth it in most cases.
There's such a wide range of quality on LCD's from the worst to the semi best .... and they are also very imprecise.
Crt's are unfortunately still the norm for quality, unless you have serious money for high end LCD.
Zeiter did you calibrate your LCD? |

CRT for me.
LCD's are crap for games because of native resolution, ghosting and lag (although thats getting better).
If you have the desk space, go for a CRT for the time being :) |
