Hi,
I’m wondering what target I should use when I’m calirbation (profiling) my monitor for gaming?
Is it still gamma 2.2 and D65 with Rec709?
I’m using 1display pro with DisplayCal and I’m using the in settings Default (Gamma 2.2) and in correction I’m choosing the LCD White LED Family.
I got this monitor: Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQL1A
https://www.asus.com/Monitors/TUF-GAMING-VG27AQL1A/
Is this correct settings? I don’t know if I should use the RGB LED or White LED correction.
According to this site it using w-led and I’m guessing it’s white led?

which one of this will use PC black and which one are going to use Video black?
As I’m using it for a PC i want PC blacks. But still that it is d65 rec709 or bt1886Default & gamma 2.2. It will only correct grey (grey color neutral to white, white point and gamma).
Regarding correction it may use some WLED PFS backlight with P3 95% (Panasonic VVX .ccss)

How do I know if i should use wled pfs or not?
Since it is a wide gamut monitor WLED PFS is probably the right correction to use since that is currently the most common type of wide gamut backlight used for IPS displays. Although It’s hard to say for sure without seeing the spectral distribution of that panel since most manufactures rarely specify the exact type of backlight they are using.
There is the ability to view the spectral distributions of any installed correction in a graph, so you can use the correction search tool in DisplayCal to see if any users have uploaded a correction for your display and compare that to the preinstalled corrections and use that to figure out what type of backlight your display has.
Note that the user supplied corrections will be much lower resolution than most of the preinstalled generic corrections, and I’d only recommend using them if none of the generic corrections match your display.
Some other possible, but unlikely backlight types are
RGB LED is uncommon and usually only used in high end monitors intended for color critical work.Quantum dot is also not as common and will usually be called out on the box or marketing materials.
GB-R LED were the new hotness a 4-5 years ago but have been mostly dropped in favor of PFS

Looks exactly like WLED PFS 95% P3.
Wow I didn’t know that area existed. lol
Are they the same as the ones you can see when you do the same thing in DisplayCal?

Thanks! Then I used that as correction.
One more Q, as you can se in the picture if I do understand it correct I Have 10 in bit depth for this display? So I guess that in the profiler I should set it at 10 and not 16 as it’s at default? (you can se picture of it also)
I have attached all of the pictures in this post.

Just leave it to the default 16 bit.

What do you think about my result? As far as I can tell it’s good 🙂

The white point is not so good.

As I did understand it it’s showing bad because I have the Lumiance down to 50 cd/m2 and not the ref cd/m2 or did I misunderstand it?
It is bad because it is not “white” (near daylight curve of whites), maybe because you set it (ok), maybe because you modified osd settings (unlikely because it is the same WP as profile).

Ok I see, I did run it again but I did run it with the same settings as I did calibrate it with. I have attached the results and what settings that I did use in this post.
Does it look better now? I have only used CalMan for 10 years but now I just want to use this SW but it has not updated for almost a year I’m hoping it still lives?It is bad because it is not “white” (near daylight curve of whites), maybe because you set it (ok), maybe because you modified osd settings (unlikely because it is the same WP as profile).
