Asus XG27AQDMG Discussion

Yes. I don't know if the AMD driver will automatically disable the clamp when switching to HDR though or whether you need to disable it manually.

Also note that if you installed the "monitor driver" and have the Asus ICC profile active in Windows Color Management for the monitor, you will get double-clamped in some cases. So check there to see if it installed a color profile.

So I deleted the ASUS ICC profile that I downloaded from their website and now I'm using AMD's Adrenalin color setting and it's indeed less saturated than before. I will check if the AMD driver settings are applied in HDR mode.

I wouldn't worry about it. I just run pixel cleaning every 4 to 5 hours on average. I bound the right direction of the control stick of the monitor to the pixel cleaning function so I can quickly run it when I leave my desk.

Thanks, I did the same. I guess it does run on stand-by because I'm already at 27 cleanings.

In regards to SRGB, the best way to clamp the color settings would be at the hardware/monitor settings, correct? And then would it be at the driver level or Window's ACM (Auto Color Management)?

Is there anything in Windows 11 that can check the current SRGB accuracy? Thanks for your time.

Every time the monitor goes into standby mode, ~2 mins after pixel cleaning runs. The logo on the front of the monitor will flash orange during this.

I don't allow this because it means pixel cleaning can run ANYTIME you leave your computer for more than a few minutes, so I have instead set a black screensaver to show. That way I can leave my monitor anytime I want, the pixels will turn off any pixel cleans will only happen when I want them to

Is this interruptible? Normally when you run a cycle manually, you need to wait. If it starts on its own during stand-by, does it abort if you like move the mouse to wake up the screen again?

I don't think so, but I haven't used standby mode in a while now so not 100% sure. You can test it bc it's only a couple mins after the monitor turns off it starts the pixel clean

Hi, is there a way to ease color banding on amd ? I think that amd has dithering enabled by default but changing from 10 bit to 6 bit doesn't do much for color banding, I also contacted asus support about it and after a lot of talking they gave me a test firmware which slightly improved it in some tests but it's still visible, since novideo_srgb doesn't work with amd is there another tool to try ?

I have a weird problem and i dont know if normal but when i turn off the monitor my Oled time track still counting, and when i turn on my monitor sometimes have burn in, it doesnt make sense at all but looks like my monitors isnt shutting down, its normal?

Can you share the firmware with us to try it?

Hi all,

So i bought the XG27AQDMG

Its sharp, black is black colors are vivid and nice but then a play a game like Elden Ring

There is an issue no matter what i tried it's still there the best way i can describe it is:

"there is a purple hue specially noticeable on branches, certain walls in specific angle, grass, trees, spider webs etc even on the character it self" It's there but extremely noticeable but enough to annoy the hell out of me. Did NOT had this issue with my excellent Eizo FS2735 monitor (IPS)

Changed screen frequency, played with the OS settings went from 8bit to 10bit changed cables ie hdmi then displayport. Nothing seems to work.

I use a AMD 9070 XT (XFX 9070 xt Mercury magnetic air oc)
This nonsense is pissing me off paid good money for it.
And yes i am using the latest driver ie "MCM104"

So what is causing this?

If I'm reading this the way I'm thinking you're trying to convey it, its the black crush. Sort of like the gamma ramp just not being right. I really don't know how to fix it, personally; so I'm sorry about that, but, others I've seen, elsewhere, have mentioned it. When it works, its a great monitor, but sometimes... oof.

For example, in The Last of Us: Part 2, the loading screen with the light/god ray, it just looks so god awfully messed up. Looks like when you'd use 16-bit colors in games back in the 3DFX days lol.

he said a purple hue lol that isn't black crush

I had this issue in Elden Ring as well(if I remember right, could have been another game but I kept seeing a blue/purpleish hue on some things when there shouldn't've been)

If it makes you feel any better, I haven't experienced this on any other game. I don't know why it's happening and if it is the monitor causing it

Does it still look like that with HDR off? Or VRR off?

edit: here is someone else complaining about it on Elden Ring and is indeed using an OLED monitor too https://steamcommunity.com/app/1245620/ ... 503767414/
