I recently bought a 17" TFT from Scan and when compared with my CRT it really is poor. The screen is bright even with the brightness down to 0.
In a darkended room the areas that are normally black are a grey colour and not even dark grey. Is this normal? I understand light bleeds through but not sure what other TFTs are like in a darkened environment. In a lit room it's less noticable, but running the quake 4 demo on both monitors there is definitely less atmosphere on the TFT.
The monitor doesn't have a gamma setting only on the ATI catalyst which seems to have no effect.
Help is much appreciated.
