Since my old 17-inch CRT monitor seemed to flicker more every day, which was not exactly easy on the eyes, I decided I finally go up a TFT monitor. Because of the good reviews on Amazon and the price, the choice fell on the LG Flatron L1716S. Could it even before that judge in a retail store, where among other devices, he made a really great impression. After the first start I was a little startled because the picture was much worse than I had imagined and funny flickered. That changed rather quickly the longer was the equipment. That may occur in new equipment at the first time. I quickly optimized using the software, the image settings, and lo and behold: A perfect picture. However, I find the optimum resolution of 1280 x 1024 on Win2000 for my eyes extremely tiring on my old CRT I always worked with 800 x 600. So the setting was quickly changed to a comfortable 1024 x 786. The monitor must be in this resolution Although interpolate, but in normal applications I see no quality loss, only to play DVDs I found something better on the CRT. Use the monitor primarily for office and internet, so I can not say anything about the game properties. But lt. The other reviews are probably ok. The design is a matter of taste, think it's ok, and I've seen fancier devices. Conclusion: The purchase was worth it, it is a very pleasant working environment, the monitor provides an absolutely sharp, evenly illuminated and flicker-free picture. My radiant tube spin moves in the garbage, I do not want another monitor more. A star deduction but there is, as operating instructions and all inserts are printed only in Chinese and English. German you could not find.
