Exactly, you don't know. Try owning a 3 Dell U2711's and get back to me when you find you can't read anything and you hate your monitor. kthx. Said the person who has never owned the AG CCFL version. Yep, all of my U2711's were ~25cd/m2 darker in the bottom left. Noticeable every time you...

You have got to be kidding. CCFL model: grainy anti glare vaseline+sand coating that obliterates the whole picture unreadable text at standard DPI due to grain long warm up time to full brightness (~30min) dim in corners, especially bottom left buzzing LED gloss model: no grain, everything...

You could be right. The first i1d2 I had calibrated to a red tint, which was not uncommon as a lot of people reported this on the forums. I was sent a replacement unit and it does not calibrate to a red tint, but I'm still not sure if it's totally accurate either. What I just spent the last...

May be the i1 display pro? I'm using an i1d2 + i1Match v3.6.2 and get a clean looking white balance after calibration. I would say mine is reading colour accurately from this panel. Do you have an i1d2 as well that you can use, or are you saying you can't get a decent calibration at all...

At the risk of sounding like a broken record there is a LUT loader called Monitor Calibration Wizard which enforces your calibration at all times and it works for all games. When you launch a game you can see the game removing the calibration and then within <1 second MCW detects this and...

It's the same on my HD6770, soon as I load a game it gets reset, but as soon as I exit the game it goes back. So I have to use MCW to get it to stick in-game, but then I've sacrificed the 10-bit lut :\ Would be awesome if there was a 10 bit lut loader which enforced it like MCW does. Does...

Yeah, I quite like the styling of the catleap. I would say it 's more stylish than the U2711, in that the screen sits more flush with the bezel and is gloss black. But the wobble...damn they really dropped the ball on that one. The height that the monitor sits at is perfect though, so I...

Does anyone know if the ATi/AMD 10bit LUT uses temporal or spatial dithering to output as 8bit? Just curious to know as I think it's amazing that we can get effectively 10 bit colour depth on these monitors for so cheap :) I would give this monitor 10/10 if it wasn't for the retarded wobble of...

^ Ignore this, I just remembered it was actually Windows Action Center's User Account Control that was preventing MCW from working properly. If you're still having issues try turning it off in the control panel. Yep, have the same thing on mine. It is extremely minor and even on all white...

Had the same issue on my laptop and it was due to [strike=]windows LUT loader[/s] user account control clashing with MCW LUT loader. Measure luminance of 100% white and black, divide white by black. I am using ColorHCFR and this pattern. Opposite experience here with a catleap: no...

Did you check the boxes "load at windows startup" and "persistent profile, don't let the current profile change"? Also go into msconfig and remove i1match's lut loader and profile reminder from the startup, and also disable windows colour management in the control panel if you are using that...

I just compared to the 10bit lut loader that Toasty posted and it definitely makes an improvement :) Gray scale ramp is now perfectly linear and perceptually uniform. Amazing stuff :) I only wish there was a way to enforce it when games try and take it over. For that I have to use MCW...

Use Monitor Calibration Wizard. It sits in the tray and enforces your LUT when games try and reset it. Plus you can see your LUT and edit it :)
