Testing and calibrating a QD-OLED monitor

[Halfwit]

Soon I’ll get my hands on the Alienware AW3423DW monitor, which uses a QD-OLED panel.

Is it possible to test and calibrate this monitor with the X-Rite i1Display Pro? Which spectral correction should I use?

Thank you for your insight!

Someone posted a ccss for this monitor in this very forum look it up. Personally it did not help me calibrate the monitor with i1Display Studio. I keep getting crushed blacks no matter how many grey patches I run through it. Maybe my xrite tool is too much on the cheap side, I don’t know. I just want to get rid of these greyish blacks. 🙁

Try Tone curve:as measured+novideo_srgb if you have a nvidia GPU. Make sure black point compensation is unchecked.

Thanks this is what I was doing but I mixed up black level drift with black point compensation(didn’t know there was advanced options to unlock that one). I still get two shades before black crushed, but I can live this.

According to reviews ambient light raises the black level of the panel, so you might prefer to profile in pitch black conditions. Uncheck both BPC and BLD.
