BenQ - Better colors?

[UniformGreen]

So I have a BenQ Zowie XL2411 (or better known as XL2411Z) and I want to calibrate my monitor to get better colors because the default ones are just bad...

Compared to my second monitor, a 10YO LG FLATRON L1918S, that I got with my Pentium 4 Prebuild PC, this monitor has washed out colors and not vivid and alive colors...

That sounds like Color Temperature....

I have the xl2411z and yes the default colours were awful.

I used this as a starting point: https://youtu.be/UOUUpwBOJVM

And tweaked it a bit from there (mostly the brightness). Set the mode to fps1 before you start

Okay so for all the people that just got a xl2411 and are not satisfied with all the options they have tried out I present my custom configured options.
I have the XL2411P.
Color Temperature: R:93 G:80 B:97
Color Vibrance: 12
Sharpness: 7
Gamma1
The Following are personal preference and don't impact color settings.
Brightness: 70
Low Blue Light: 5
Black eQualizer: 11

Thanks for reading
