Introduction

All results issued in this review have been established by using the digital input, with the exception of the test runs for analog image quality, which have been established on the analog input. Our test bed ran with a Gainward 750 Geforce4 Titanium graphics card.

Scope of supply

The delivery includes – next to the display – a manual (brief instructions) to set up the monitor, a D-Sub cable, a power cable, a CD-Rom with drivers and a detailed manual in PDF format . Additionally, there is a wire cover enabling the cables to be invisibly ducted to the back when being looked at from the front.

Design

The NEC LCD1760NX offers good looks with its narrow frame (1,7 cm/ 2,7 cm bottom). The case is ivory/ beige and the front frame is silver.

Aesthetics are held plain and functional. All buttons for operating the OSD are built into the lower area of the monitor’s edge. Access to the rather brightly colored buttons is sub-optimal, however better than with the black version, since their stamped labeling is easier to read. The monitor has an ON-/OFF- button and an internal power supply unit.
