Optional / Advanced Reading: TV / Monitor Calibration Tips:
Honestly image quality and color fidelity are especially individual and subject to change. They are affected by your TV/Monitor, youר preferred brightness/contrast/color settings, your desktop settings and even the room lighting.
Still, I have provided this comprehensive guide based on my experience:
TV:
(Based on my Samsung LED TV. Though not entirely universal, this may yet offer basic guidelines for non-Samsung users:
Basic Settings: Standard ; Backlight 12 ; Contrast 100 ; Color 88 ; Brightness 45 ; Sharpness 55.
Advanced Settings: Black Tone DARKEST (important!). Shadow Detail -2. dynamic contrast Off.
Picture Options: HDMI Levels LOW ; Color Tone Standard.
DISABLE all image processing and proliferation - this means OFF on all the following: edge enhancement, motion lightning, motion plus, noise reduction, mpeg reduction, power saving stuff- SET THEM ALL TO OFF.
PC Monitor Setup:
PC Monitors tend to be brighter with less options, please try:
4-6 in-game brightness if its too bright or if you still experience banding (layers of light colors in the sky).
Nvidia Control Panel - Adjust Desktop Color Settings - DIGITAL VIBRANCE*: +75% !!!! -- I warmly recommend this for both gaming and browsing on PC-Monitors! Use it on every game!
*However I don't use it on my TV! Since TV's have high color control, making it an unnecessary overkill (it's optional).
