Hi guys :)

As per title I've just taken delivery of a Dell u2311H panel and I'm a bit unimpressed with the colour compared to the NEC 20WGX2 it replaces.

Does anyone know the optimal settings for this monitor?


Thanks
 
What do you expect when going from an 8bit panel to a 6bit panel?
you have 2 less bits per subpixel!

I needed a bigger panel and I'm not paying £500 for a 8-bit 24 when I got a 6-bit 23 for £204. It's an excellent screen just need to have a bit of a play about.
 
As Baddass is waiting to tell you - no, it isn't. ;)

well really i was curious as to which 8-bit monitors he was referring to which were <£150

but no, the panel used in the U2311H is actually a 6-bit+AFRC IPS module. and pretty hard really to tell any real difference compared with a similar 8-bit e-IPS panel unless you particularly know what you're looking for or have a very high end requirement. most average users wouldnt know the difference

Baddass' research suggests that Samsung's current cPVAs are 6-bit + dithering as well.
