hey Toasty, what do you do to tone down the oversaturation? Is it best to tune them down in the Advanced settings for the screen itself, or do you prefer to set that in the OS or videocard's software? What are your best ideal high quality Advanced settings for your 2690 now?The 2690 can't be calibrated to a lesser gamut.
It can get really messy if you can configure the same things in 3 or more different places. I have a NVidia card feeding the 2690, and it has some terrible tuning software, it really gives you no insight whatsoever in what it is actually doing or changing. So you can calibrate it whatever you like, as long as this software does what it does the way it prefers to, you're on your own with actual application of - for example - watching a HD movie from some 1080p source file.
