In LCD Round up V: 17" LCD Panels Compaired they reviewed the Samsung 172x. I was surprised to find that the monitor suffers from heavy ghosting when playing games and even makes dvd viewing unpleasant if not impossible. He notes at the end that while watching the DVD there was a great deal of "flashing" leading him to suspect that it is a 16 bit display using dithering. This is clearly incorrect as the color reprodution tests show the screen can produce 99% of colors. If it is a 16 bit display using dithering how can dithering fool the spectrometer. Another review site claimed that dvd viewing with no ghosting at all. I think they need to take a second look at this monitor.
