Hi Zheng,

Looks like you used parts of the post I made about my own Samsung 181T.
That's funny. I don't mind 8-)

As for your problem. I think your TFT is rated to work up until 75 Hz, so
theoretically it should be able to handle your 70 and 72 Hz, that's for
sure.

Did you experience fuzzy text when you were still using your old regular CRT
at these (not so special) refresh rates? In that case, the GeForce could be
the one to blame. Or interference from things that come close to the signal
cable. See if moving that around helps.

Does the GeForce have DVI? I would advice to use it. A digital-to-digital
connection is free of interference and, in theory, should give
compromise-free picture quality. In practice, the difference will be very
small though. Try it if you have the cables.

Finally, there is no real need to run at higher than 60Hz refresh rates,
with a TFT. It will be just as stable as anything else. BUT the 180P2B
should take 75Hz and lower for its input as well, without fuzziness I
assume.

Hope you get real experiences from other owners too, just like I did for my
Samsung 181t problem. My TFT is on it's way back right now, based upon what
I read here too.

Good luck,

Edo Nijmeijer
