Same deal happens with printers.Nvidia's Control Panel primarily deals with universal GPU settings but also features settings for individual games.įor example, you can manage your Nvidia GPU's 3D settings across your entire system, force a specific screen resolution, adjust your desktop color display, set up multiple displays, and more. See if that helps as Windows will now know your monitors color range. Under the advance tab on that, you can set everything as System default, if not already.

You just have to ensure the Windows HDR and graphics card knows it's color profile range. However, all can still do more than a standard non-HDR with a better colour range. A standard HDR 10 is equal to a VESA HDR 1000. HDR 400 and HDR 600 are a bit of marketing gimmick. Since it's a VESA Display, HDR 1000 would be full HDR.

Your monitor "LG-32GK850F-B" has VESA Display HDR 400.
