Test date: 2008-01-14
Changing computers, this time a PC with XP and an ''old'' ATI card (Radeon X1600) whose drivers have not been updated.
Before pasting the profiles we verified color rendering on the screens with the four interfaces (2232BW DVI/VGA, VP930 DVI/VGA). It was identical to that measured on the test PC: a little too much blue on the 2232BW in DVI, in VGA it’s better, a VP930 with colors that generally are too reddish.

- average dE > 3: visible differences which can sometimes be problematic
- average dE < 3: good color fidelity and can be considered satisfactory.
- average dE < 2: excellent and good for touching up photos.
- average dE < 1: we can safely say that the human eye won’t detect the slight differences.
Color correction on the ViewSonic monitor is once again impressive and the profiles result in a screen that is almost perfectly calibrated. With the Samsung, it is significantly less so, but this value is misleading. Even if the average color difference is a bit higher (only slightly), the profile did correct a blue dominance that was detected in DVI. Other shades have lost a little blue in compensation, but this is hardly visible with the naked eye. The end result is therefore positive and visually preferable.
