    Ok so the Studio 1737 premium display is the RGB LED display. Using LED's.

    For example even high end HDTV's the most expensive $4,000 Samsung using LED back lighting lists a 2ms response time.

    I have never seen such specs mentioned for the 1737's RGB LED display.

    I know it has to be fast, because on my 22" Samsung LCD which is back lit using conventional CCFL has a 2ms response time.

    and when I connect my 1737 to my 22 LCD via HDMI, I can tell that the response time, on the 1737 is faster, my guess is because of the LED's can adjust or turn on off faster than CCFL.


    not sure if its caused by a better aka faster response time on the 1737 LED display, or if its a "refresh" rate problem.

    Has anyone hooked up their 1737 to an HDTV or LCD via DVI, what have you seen?

    thanks board.

    Response time has nothing to do with CCFL vs. LED. I'm fairly certain your notebook's display response time is 8ms; that's pretty common for notebook panels. And how can you tell that your Studio response time is faster than that of your TV? You really can't tell the difference between 2ms and 8ms with the naked eye.

    Long story short, I highly doubt your 1737's display has a shorter response time than your 2ms HDTV.

    so then it must be something else, to put it shortly the 1737's rgb led looks better than a 2ms ccfl lcd. both are lcd its just a different backlight technology.

    RGB LED is far superior to CCFL, Soy uses RGB LED's on its most expensive HDTV's

    Samsung only uses white LED's

    can't wait to ditch my CCFL and move to a LED unit like the 1737.
