Proper LCD Display Settings

What's the best settings?

I just popped my Samsung SyncMaster 172x 17" TFT LCD monitor out of its box, and yes it has both analog and digital :cheesy: First thing I noticed was that the factory settings were intended to blind me, since the brightness was so high ANd the screen just doesn't quite look "right"

So I've fiddled with the settings some, and it definitely looks better now, but I was wondering if someone has some expertise on setting up LCD displays to an accepted "norm" or standard. The settings are all based on a scale of 1-100, but with different manufacturers and specs what are good figures to use?


Thanks

Many LCD displays have an auto-config feature that tweaks the screen to the right dimensions and alignment, either in button form or when you turn it on.

I don't think there's any standard for other monitor settings though, since everyone's eyes are different. One setting that's comfortable for some may be head-splitting for others. It's really up to you to twiddle with the settings to get your definition of "right".
