Shuttle XP17 Preview: A better looking 16ms LCD

ColorVision Spyder

Before running DisplayMate and our subjective analysis of the LCD, we ran ColorVision's Spyder and OptiCal software. Not only does this accurately calibrate the monitor on the DVI and analog interface, but it also gives us specific luminescence information not obtainable though subjective analysis. Special thanks to our friends at ColorVision for providing us with both a ColorVision Spyder and their OptiCal software.

Our test bed uses a Radeon 9800 XT video card. We use the factory included DVI cable for this portion of the benchmark. Resolutions are on the native 1280x1024.

And here is what our Spyder and OptiCal software have to say:

For those of you playing at home, you'll notice that the curves on this color pattern resemble an LCD, which we have already looked at in the past. Although we are not allowed to disclose who the panel/manufacturer is, going back to some of our older LCD reviews will show Shuttle's OEM panel manufacturer.
