5.0 out of 5 stars Best birthday gift for gaming and web surfing on a budget, February 18, 2004

This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 750s 17" CRT Monitor (Black) (Electronics)

The samsung syncmaster 750s has all the features you would expect from a monitor in this price range. The unit I received had no visible defects and had a sturdy feel to it.

The screen is bright and displays images in rich detail. The default color settings worked well. I did have to use the on screen display to adjust the geometry just a little.

The monitor was easy to configure and use in mandrake linux 9.2 it is one of the supported monitors in that distributions X configuration utility.

As to the length of service I have had the monitor for a few weeks now and it seems that it will be my primary display for years to come. A friend of mine has a slightly larger model that has lasted several years without any maintanance other then the occasional cleaning.

The monitor shipped with a install cd that included some color calibration utilities and the like. I Choose only to install the windows xp driver from it. Windows driver configuration was simple and fast. It is my understanding that the install disk also has drivers for several older versions of windows. I also tested the monitor with the generic windows xp plug and play drivers. It was well supported there to and performed adequately .

Attaching the monitor stand was simple and it its fit was secure. The stand offers at tilt feature with a fairly wide range of viewing positions.

Overall I would highly recommend this monitor to any computer user in need of a good reasonably priced durable CRT. While not quite suitable for high end art and drafting work it otherwise provides a great display for all other purposes.

Compared to my previous monitor (a ViewSonic E771), the depth of the Samsung SyncMaster 750s is about 15.7 inches ... which I just TOTALLY love!! I ended up having the same screen size & getting a little more real estate at my computer's workstation at the same time. I also noticed that it was much lighter that I thought it'd be. After hooking everything up, all I had to do was turn it on, make some minor adjustments to the display settings, and I was up & running in no time. Also, the dot pitch of this monitor is 0.23 mm, which gives you a much sharper image.

The CD-ROM that comes with the Samsung SyncMaster 750s contains the necessary drivers you'll need to install & color management software called "Natural Color" which, supposedly (according to what I read), provides accurate & predictable color matching to give you the best image quality possible. My opinion? The software needs to be made a tad bit more user friendly. But after using it the first time, I've noticed that Quake 3 Team Arena looked a HELL of a lot better than it did using the monitor's default settings, and that overall image quality has also improved. So if you're up to it, go for it. You can always reset everything if you don't like the results. Overall, I'm amazed that I managed to get a technology-packed monitor like this at such a low price. I definately got my money's worth by purchasing this monitor.

I am so happy on this choice! I thought it might be broken by the time it got here but it's in top condition. The shipping only took 5 days! 5 days before the projected delivery time. And what great color... Also I got free shipping on this monitor.
