ASUS VX248H Washed Out Or Something?

[Kammeron Randle]

Hello all! I bought the ASUS VX248H a few days ago, and noticed that some colors seem washed out or something. I can see multiple kinds of grays on Steam:

And the blue fades look weird too:

Anyone else having this problem? Thanks!

*Monitor? Lol and not yet. I wanted to know if it was just the way the monitor is, or if it was really broken. I'll look at talking to them. Has anyone else had this problem?

Wasn't able to find any ICC profiles for that monitor, but you might try these settings and see if the colors improve.

Brightness: 30
Contrast: 80
Saturation: 70
Color temp: user mode
Skin tone: natural
Sharpness: 80
Trace free: 40
Ascr: off
Splendid demo mode: off
Eco mode: off

I've had the monitor a while now since I posted this and it's something that was so easy to get over. I absolutely love this monitor and all of my games look great. If you're using an NVIDIA card though like I am (GTX 1070), switch the color range to Full Range in NVIDIA Control Panel (I think you can do it in there, otherwise do the latter) or do a quick search for the NVIDIA RGB toggle on google and download the tool that does everything for you. It makes a big difference. For some reason, the range is limited by default and makes the screen really gray and bright, but switching to full range makes it look perfect.
