I didn't try yet that complicated method of testing the image retention, but I have a black windows background by "default" I dont use any pictures or graphics - just a plein black background, I also sometimes leave the computer on for hours with some windows open and I haven't seen any image retention yet.
From the other hand there should be some. There must've been a reason why Dell would add the "LCD CONDITIONNING" option in the menu, which is described as follows:
"This feature will help reduce minor cases of image retention. Depending on the degree of image retention, the program may take some time to run."
Meanwhile, here are some nice settings for those who keep their monitor:
Brightness 16
Contrast 83
R89 G94 B92
Then, load skyrim -)
It's like using a different monitor -) They improve the black level (check out the lagom test), and most importantly details in dark areas significally and all the colors are back to there normal conditions and small details appear more clearly. I start really liking this monitor. Those are probably not the last settings - but are the best settings so far I tried, and they are so good that I even decided to post this.
