Home › Forums › Help and Support › Need help calibrating the PG32UCDM QD-OLED Monitor
Hi all,
First of all this software is amazing, way more detailed than what Calibrite comes with.
But I want to know what settings I should setup for this monitor.
The colorimeter I use is a Display Plus from Calibrite.
It’s a 3rd gen QD-OLED panel from Samsung, model is PG32UCDM.
The wide gamut mode is extremely saturated, and the srgb is too dull for my taste.
I wanted to calibrate in the DCI-P3 mode which is like the apple macbook displays.
What should I pick?
Hope someone is willing to guide me through this.
I’d appreciate it a ton!
If you are on macOS, just assign a native gamut/EDID iccprofile to display. It’s color managed, use native gamut
If you are on windows with color managed apps, same.
If you are on windows with NO color managed apps, use factory sRGB simulations (limited as you said) or use AMD control panel to simulate sRGB or novideo sRGB (nvidia) or DWMLUT (source simulated ICC, like sRGB with gamma 2.2, destination native gamut icc)
I suggest sticking to sRGB gamut as the vast majority of content will be wrong with any other gamut. You can still optimize for colors vibrancy in many ways. One is by choosing a brightness around 140-150 cd/m2 which saturates the optical rods of your eyes more than the standard 120 cm/m2. Another is by limiting ambient light of your room which risks scattering light inside the QD-OLED panel and washing out the image. The content that actually uses P3 color space capabilities is coded as HDR10 and Dolby Vision.
correction, this is not a samsung monitor but rather an asus monitor.
