I recently purchased a CRG9.
I loaded the profile from rtings:
https://www.rtings.com/images/reviews/monitor/samsung/crg9/crg9-rtings-icc-profile.icm
It has proper saturation for the color.
When I try a calibration of my own, I get acurate colors for my panel, but the blacks look “grey”. Like some how they are slightly washed out.
Any help to what I am setting wrong?
I do load the profile in the correction Database and still the same issue.
(Since this is a QLED panel)
I can provide my profiles I have tried if required.

Likely wrong output levels (graphics card control panel).

Yes.
That looks fine, no surprises there.
Unsure what you mean about wrong output levels on video card?
When I apply the .icm from rtings, no issues.
When I apply displaycal .icm issues.
I have nothing set in nvidia control panel over-riding the profiles.

Was just a hunch, didn’t seem to be the case.

On the contrary. There is a very obvious issue with the rtings profile: It is nowhere near the actual response of your display! The rtings.com profile describes an sRGB response. Your actual display (without calibration) has a native gamma 2.4-ish response.
There are no issues with the DisplayCAL profile: It is based on measurements of your actual calibrated display (gamma 2.2 calibration).
You can verify this via measurements.

Yea. I just verified it.
I guess the question becomes, do I grade for 2.4 or 2.6 instead of 2.2 for DCI-P3.
