Could you please, please, please, post the values? I'm begging.

I second that, please please.

I used powerstrip and these settings which make the LG perfect, I flat out love this screen and can't see what people are complaining about. It is truly a conspiracy. If you must know now here ya go...


Gamma 1.50
Brightness -35%
Contrast -20%
Temperature 4900k

Try it. It should be good to go. If you feel the need to seriously thank me I can send a paypal address

Dude,

That makes my LPL0000 look terrible. super washed out and like a green tint..
what the heck?

LG are horrible, I dunno what your talking about, I think you're color blind.

My LG looks great...

LG are not horrible, they have really nice deep colors (with the exception of gray). The problem is they have sparkle issues which bothers some people. I just showed a friend of mine that has a 600m the two XPS 2's I have (Samsung and LG) next to each other playing a 1080p clip and even after tweaking my Samsung colors, he said the LG's looked slightly better. The whites on the LG didn't bother him at all and he said, "I don't know why that bothers you, its not bad at all." Then I asked him, "which screen would you pick if you had to keep one of these XPS 2 systems?" and he said he'd pick the LG because the sparkles didn't bother him at all, he liked the colors a bit better and the fact that it doesn't have noticeable light leakage.

What it boils down to is personal preference. To some the LG is clearly the better choice and others like me prefer Samsung. Neither display is great, they are average for 17" displays. If the LG didn't have the anti-glare sparkle, it would be one of the best displays on the market.

I dunno, I think the LG's completely screwed up blue channel is kind of nasty.

JUST PLAY FARCRY,NEED FOR SPEED UNDERGROUND 2,BROTHERS IN ARMS,DOOM3 ON THE HIGHEST SETTINGS AND YOU WILL SEE WHAT THE LG IS ALL ABOUT.THESE LAPTOP WHERE MADE WITH GAMERS IN MIND(NVIDIA6800GO) AND IF YOU LOOKING TO SURF THE WEB AND WRITE A BOOK,GET A SONY!!!THE SPARKLES DOESNT BOTHER ME AT ALL.
MY 2CENTS

certainly is true that it has no problems with games, but unless all ur time on ur computer is spent on gaming, the screen should be good enough to use in all occasions. but i am satisfied with the screen on all other aspects, though i ll still be using the sony for my video and photo editing (despite its half dozen dead pixels and three year age, pfff if they can make great screens that long ago ...)

What is "LG"?

The LG is the screen on the xps2/9300 that has been manufactured by LG. The other panel that other people get with these systems are the samsungs.

Sorry operaman but those settings really are bad

Here are my powerstrip settings although greys still look off and still some bluish tinting.

You have to apply adjustments using non-linear ramp Graphics arts 2.2 gamma, then:

gamma: 1.2
bright: -35
contrast: -20
temp: 6500K
