There is leak and a dead pixel on my P370SM's stock screen so I have chance to replace a new stock or add 150$ for the
"17.3" FHD 16:9 "Matte Type" Super Clear Ultra Bright LED Anti-Glare Screen w/ 72% NTSC Color Gamut (1920x1080) "
screen, Is the screen worth to buy? I'm just a gamer I'm not a enthusiast in photo or something, so is that necessary to get the better screen?![]()
is the chance of leak and dead pixel lower for the better screen?

I'd get the 120hz 3D which is also 72% NTSC gamut.

The stock screens are typically 60%, 60hz with no 3D capability. Its all around a better screen. I'd check with your reseller to see if its available.

My understanding is that it makes a difference in photo editing.
Also, maybe..... if you didn't have it side by side, you probably can't tell the difference. -
I would ask them what the stock screen is? My understanding is that the stock matte screen on this model is a Chimei Innolux N173HGE-L11, which already is a 72% matte screen (or close to that). In fact, I would ask if this is the stock screen, and if it is, take it. It's a good screen. Not great for photo editing, but very vibrant and contrasty and glare resistant.

There are several color gamut types out there, sRGB and aRGB are some of the most popular ones and can display X amount of colors. NTSC has more colors then those, so when a % is listed like 72% that means it can display 72% of the total amount of colors from the NTSC spectrum.

Yes and 72% NTSC generally aligns with the sRGB colorspace. Colorspace is a very complex issue, one which has been clouded by marketing (more is better, right?). The sRGB colorspace is the colorspace of most online photo sharing sites as well as most photo printers and is the set colorspace of most non-color managed programs (like Internet Explorer). If you aren't going to immerse yourself in understanding colorspace (and it will make your head spin), then sticking with the sRGB colorspace is a good plan. If you really don't care about color accuracy (and there are many valid reasons not to), then a wide gamut screen (90-95%) will probably look more vibrant and colorful, but be aware if you intend on sharing any photos, what you see on your screen may not be what others see on theirs when they look at your shots. If an extremely vibrant gaming experience is your goal, then wide gamut may be a better option.

Unless you edit pictures to sell and plan to make money from gamut to me is useless unless you really want the extra eye candy from it, and personally you'll be to busy to notice the difference in colors. My main screens are 110% and 117%.

Typically at least 72% is ideal, after that point it gets harder to justify.

72% is close to full srgb, so it would be a improvement overall (movie, games desktops and browsing) , but it isn't worth 150 imo.
The 120hz is probably a good upgrade, smooth bluray movie and allow game to seen above 60hz. -

You'll need to check if adding the 120hz to your machine is an option as it is a nice choice if available. It's not compatible with AMD cards for instance.
Is the 72% NTSC worth buying on P370SM??
