I just hooked it all up tonight and I must say it is the bomb ! I installed the latest Nvidia drivers and things seemed to look a bit better: text, some images etc... The Nvidia drivers took care of desktop spanning with nice intuitive features. The bezel on these monitors is just amazing, 0.5" compared to my old Samsung 900NF which was around 2.5 or more. If anybody is looking for a nice Dual LCD setup get these. Has anybody got the same setup as me? If yes, what is the best method of adjusting the colors, brightness and all the other options? I read somewhere that Adobe Gamma settings can help me, is this the best avenue?

You can use the Adobe Gamma, or the color adjustment features of your graphic drivers (under advanced properties). But I personally found the bundled Natural Color software the easiest to use and gave the best results. I presume you are using the DVI connector (which severly limits onscreen control)? Regardless, just set your brightness level with the onscreen controls to whatever you find comfortable (I typically use around 25-30 under most lighting conditions in my office), and then run the Natural Color program to get the color gamma balance right. You will do the final adjustment of contrast in the last step.

Good luck!

P.S.: It really is a great monitor

I have one ove these babies.. color setting are a pain to get just right.... differently lighting conditions and all. How is the dual setup in gaming.. during gameplay does it split it in two? That would be awesome and with the size of this LCD 2 would be nice side by sisde on my desk.

This thing has yet to impress me in the color area... endless tweaking and still not satisfied. I have a Dell 8200 Loaded with a Ultra Sharp XGA Display and its gorgeous compared to this. Also responds well to powerstrip adjustments unlike my 191T.
