planning to get 5070ti also.. which one you get?

MSI Vanguard

ahh.. not fit in my q58.. lol... looking at asus prime then 

HDR need match with right monitor... else don't bother turn on.. as of 5070Ti ; its more on you getting better FPS , and framegen.. which honestly better turned off

I am using Alienware AW3225QF which is a 4K 32" QD-OLED monitor.

Looks like its better to turn HDR off then. Sigh..... Whats the point of using good monitor and good graphic card IF we cant fully utilize it. Macam kena tipu.

Yeah... Washed out. DMC5 graphic looks better in my old RTX2080ti comparing to RTX5070ti

how to know HDR level? i use AOC 24G4 that have HDR, but i don have those big game to test, only try Split Fiction demo HDR seem more bright that normal, but other SDR content color all washed out

youtube video show HDR, but i dunno how good is it

It's an IPS panel? Not much difference than SDR. It's the panel limitation. If you got phone or tablet with OLED panel, you can compare youtube HDR video on the monitor vs phone/tablet to see yourself the difference OLED panel than can give peak and lowest luminance vs LCD panel.

Higher brightness in IPS is not a good thing. Many displays achieve HDR by driving the backlight to maximum luminance. This technique, particularly on LCD panels, can compromise black levels, resulting in a noticeable graying effect. Without local dimming, the static contrast ratio remains constant. Because the backlight is globally controlled, the display effectively performs a tone-mapping operation, compressing the HDR input into an SDR dynamic range. For a genuine HDR experience with enhanced contrast, a display necessitates a local dimming solution with multiple independently controlled zones. This allows for simultaneous dimming of dark regions and boosting of bright regions. Only OLED and mini LED can achieve such contrast.

Yes is IPS, need some timeto understand what you mean

I just bought a new PC with RTX5070ti and also Alienware AW3225QF but the graphic macam not oomph leh. When I turn on HDR, many games graphic looks like shit. DMC5, Sekiro, etc all look like shit until I turn off HDR and use SDR instead. A bit disappointing to be frank. Anything I left out in terms of setting?

PSA: If you're experiencing dull/dim and washed out colors with HDR passthrough on win10, restart your GPU display device

I had this issue when trying to play HDR content on my LG CX. I followed the setup guide on the wiki but my HDR content was just dull, dim, and had washed out colors unless I turned off windows HDR. Even after restarting my computer, the same issue persisted. I spent a few hours researching for a solution when I stumbled upon a comment here in the HTPC subreddit and a thread post on doom9 about restarting the GPU display device (not the whole computer). I restarted (not reinstalled) my GPU display device and voila, all is fixed. Just thought I would make a post about it since it wasn't exactly easy to find this solution. For reference, I'm using MPC-HC + MadVR installed through K-Lite.

I'll just quote the whole [doom9 post](https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1981830#post1981830) below for how to do it.

I just found that restarting the nvidia display device after the HDR switching bug happens will also clear up the issue if you don't want to do a full reboot.

Unfortunately the Windows keyboard shotcut (win+ctrl+shift+b) doesn't clear it up, but if you restart the video card with the "pnputil" command line utility it will clear it up and HDR switching should work fine again for awhile without having to reboot.

If you want to try this workaround, first run this command to get the "Instance ID" of your nvidia display device:
>
pnputil /enum-devices /class Display

Then run the following command in a command prompt with admin rights, replacing <instance id> with your cards id, to restart it:

pnputil /restart-device "<instance id>"

Example:
pnputil /restart-device "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B80&SUBSYS_62863842&REV_A1\4&fa0c5&0&0008"
