Hello y'all
Need advise to decde wich of these LCD's to buy:

Dell 1703fp (about $450)
Samsung 173p (about $550)
Samsung 172x (about $500)

Already read reviews about but need input from more discerning users.

The price for me is more or less the same (ok, I know 100 bucks is 100 bucks) but wich one would be the best value. Planning to do a lot of spreadsheet and text reading in general, and certainly a good share of doom3, UT2004 gaming . . .

Thx a lot . . .

I use a 172N for gaming and even with a 25ms response time, I don't notice any gholsting. Myabe I'm just lucky though. Anyway for value you can find these on ebay for 320ish. I imagine the 172X is would be the same if you really want a low response time.

for 5 dollars more (555$ on Monarchcomputer.com) get the Viewsonic 171B.
