Hey ppl,

If you had a choice between the Samsung 172X and the Samsung 172T.. which would you get??
The 172X claims to have a 12ms RT but doesnt really seem to benefit from it.. THG claims that it's not that good a monitor for certain games and all movies but all other reviews i've read on it all say it's really good and highly recommended!! with minimal ghosting. PLUS, the 172X has got a smaller bezel..
The 172T's bezel is wider, the screen is heavier, 25ms RT..

Both are priced the same...
So the question stands.. Which do you think is 'better'?

Thanks

this is a good question, id like to read peoples opinions.

I own a 172T, and am looking to get another one for dual work. the monitor is outstanding, but if the newer 172X is better, well then...

The 172x that Tom's reviewed didn't have the 12ms panel. I'm waiting for Tom's to review the 12ms panel. This is the monitor I've been waiting for.
