    Right click and Install ICC Profile
    Next, open the Color Management from the Control Panel. Tick ‘Use my settings for this device‘ option and then ‘Add…‘ the ICC profile.
    After that, go to the ‘Advanced‘ tab where you will have to click on the “Change system defaults” first, then ‘Advanced‘ again and tick ‘Use Windows display calibration‘. You can now close all windows.

    Please explain the Displaycal calibration settings. I usually use the 11 thousand patch and need arround 8 hours for MSI G241. With Dell S2421HN it even need arround 10 hours. The first one hours I don't they just doing something. Sometimes the strage things are the lower the patch the more accurate in term of min, average, max delta e, but higher patch make higher color gamut coverage and volume.

  • @FrostPhoenix_
    @FrostPhoenix_ 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Hey Techless, do these steps have to be repeated after system format or on a fresh windows install? Also your monitor reviews are always spot on & among the best quality out there. I purchased the MSI G241 due to my limited budget (+deal offer) and been so much satisfied with the product. The alterations after changing ICC reduced the innate oversaturation which the monitor tends to have and it makes a world of difference.
    Thank you for providing the best in class quality content out there straight out to the point with no huffles or useless banter, it is very rare to see that in the TH-cam space these days.

    Looking for your advice. I purchased a few laptops a couple from Walmart, Target, and Costco. They are basically the same/similar laptops, HP 15.6/14 in the cheaper options with i5, but they have iRisX graphics from Intel.
    I am not a photographer, but it seems laptops from WM have very much washed-out screens, not saturated dark/black images and much so when looking from the top/side. This is not the case in laptops from Costco/Target. Is it too much gamma? I tried adjusting in Win 11 using the built-in calibrater, but after a bit of adjusting, Win 11 keeps on switching back to the washed/whiter images.
    What can I use to calibrate and overwrite Windows' presets, and make the changes "stick"?

    If I have a DCI-P3 monitor, will DisplayCal limit the range to sRGB? I attempted with the Windows Desktop profiles, using a website that compares different Color Gamuts. My cheap monitor couldn't see the changes in most of the photos, but changing the .ICC in Windows made no difference. Was that Website off, was Windows color management off, or was the the .ICC off? Also, is the fact that I'm on a laptop making any difference? This is the closest I've had to the answers to these questions I've been wondering. Thank you!
