I see now - so 10bit connection only helps to reduce the VGA LUT induced artifacts. If you populate VGA LUT with straight gamma 1 it won't make any difference.
Actually my Standard mode has pretty good ramp (very smooth transitions) when uncalibrated (where it uses linear VGA LUT/gamma 1). I...
Please explain how it is so? Every image you will try to output because of the framebuffer will be 8bit. The graphics card may scale it up to 10/12 bits but that's just scaling and will still leave 256 distinct values per channel. It won't reduce banding because in order to do that you would...
I have been following this with interest having just set up my U2410 with i1 Pro and displayCal with service menu tuning relatively successfully.
I must say though that I think regardless of the cable (DP, HDMI, DVI) using Windows you won't be able to get more than 8 bit output. This is...
