I've just got a Dell 2405PFW monitor and it's lovely. I fired up WoW and was blown away -- like playing in a cinema! :)

The things is that I know it could be calibrated a lot better (it's too bloomin' bright for a start! :) ). I've reduced my brightness right the way down to 0 but wondered if anyone had taken the time to fiddle with the rgb settings to make it look perfect?

I'm also after a good icc profile for the monitor but just can't find one (there doesn't appear to be anything on the CD that came with it, except for manuals).

brightness = 5
pixel clock = 50
phase = 14

red = 36
green = 33
