Different color quality on dgpu and igpu (Color gradients banding)

[Mtaro]

I have been using ROG strix G17 with rtx4060 for 1 month. I have just noticed this issue. while watching video, color in dark spot is so oily and ugly. This only happen when using Ultimate GPU mode on armory crate. When using igpu everything looks fine. I can enjoy watching dolby vision content. But when on dgpu these content looks terrible. I'm not sure this issue happen in gaming or not. I did live update to all driver version and tried all setting on nvidia control panel but it did not work. Please let me know how to fix it. Thanks

@Anbby_ROG I have seen differences as well on my notebook between iGPU and dGPU when it shows gradients, banding is far more pronounced kn dGPU.

I captured same blizzard launcher which has circular gradients on the left and it looks much worse under dGPU.

My model is G834JY, Bios is 317, Asus control center is 3.1.17.0

 iGPU

 dGPU

See how much brighter and noticeable the circular banding is on the dGPU.

After the lastest update the problem looks better, but the color from igpu still better than dgpu. Could you give me an explanation. What is the different between color processor from both gpu?
