Hey,
I just bought a Asus ROG PG32UCDP OLED cause I could not stand my PG32UCDM's glossy scratchable screen + random black screens.
What are the best settings for this thing - HDR wise?
I upgraded to MCM106 what color profile should I use for gaming on the PC - Gaming HDR?
In the Windows calibration tool what values should I put?
Min Lum: 0 Max Lum: 1400 Max FFL: 1400 ?
Or is Min Lum: 0 Max Lum: 1000 Max FFL: 1000 better?
Another question that I have about this monitor...the Uniform Brightness setting doesn't seem to do anything while it's in HDR?
If I switch to SDR I can see a difference in brightness but when I'm in HDR toggling it On or Off doesn't seem to do anything.
Thanks for any helpful answers!

Hi @pika112
For HDR calibration by default the screen is set to HDR400 True Black. This is the most accurate mode for EOTF tracking, but lacks the brightness the screen is capable of.
Gaming HDR is much better for maximising brightness.
Enable Adjustable HDR > Set Brightness 100. Other than this, enjoy!

Yes, I already chose Gaming HDR and 100 Brightness.
Thing is I don't know what values I should put when creating a Windows 11 HDR profile with the HDR calibration tool.
Also while in HDR the Uniform Brightness setting doesn't seem to have any effect while being On or Off, which is weird.
In SDR I can see a pretty big difference but in HDR I cannot.

If not using True Black mode, the HDR calibration tool doesn't really work in my experience.

Interesting...for True Black mode...what values should I put there when I create a profile?
0 - 430 - 430 ?
Also what about Uniform Brightness?
How come I can't really see any difference with the setting On or Off in HDR?

I simply follow the onscreen prompts, should work best for this mode.
