    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Everything about the monitor is great.

    Weaknesses: Who uses RGB anyways?

    Overall Evaluation: Everything about this lcd is what lcds should be. First of all, there was not one dead or stuck pixel, plus theres awsome customer service if that is needed. There is no noticeable ghosting at all in games as fast as UT2k3&4 or Doom3, and once calibrated, the colors are more than accurate enough for photoshopping or rendering. Playing wow with it now and colors are lifelike, vibrant and smooth. Everything from the extremely thin profile to the way the body folds down flat for hanging on the wall or even upside down, this monitor beats out any crt I have ever owned. I will definately be getting another for a dual monitor setup once i get a video card with two dvi outs. If you are willing to spend the money you cannot go wrong with this piece of samsung art.

    Strengths: Design , Outstanding Color & Contrast , DVI , No Ghosting

    Weaknesses: 25ms , Little dark in games ( Far Cry )

    Overall Evaluation: WOW , The best one that i see , Beautiful Design ( mine is Black ), Great Color & Contrast ( The black is realy black ) , No Ghosting , No Bad Pixel ...... Everything is graet ! Before 173p i had a 172x , the 172x is great for gamers ( 12ms ) but the color & contrast was not that i want !! also the 172x had ghostnig in edges & in angles was brighter ...... then i bought the 173p , know this is that i want , i love it !!! But if you a gamer , the 172x is better than 173p for you ! But if you Graphist , dont think more & buy the 173p , This LCD made for Professionals !
