Good day ,

As the title states I have a laptop with an IPS monitor but is just too dark.
I noticed that 2y ago when I purchased it but was not too relevant for me as I was only playing counter strike and games where dark was non existent almost...
But rn I changed games and is a pain in the ass not seeing absolutely anything in dark while others can see everything.

I tried to adjust it via windows calibration...I even put it a little bit higher than it should be but is still not enough...cause If I go any higher than that when I go to fb or other bright application the colors starts fading away... cause is too bright.
Brightness is at 100%...Idk what else to do to fix this.

If it helps the name of the laptop is ASUS 15.6'' ROG G551VW ,

Is there anything else I should try ?

Thank you
 
If installed, try de-installing ASUS's "Splendid Video Enhancement Technology" program. It may be overriding the Windows calibration tool. Also, if you have a dedicated video card like an Nvidia GTX 960M, have you run through the settings in Nvidia's control panel and have the latest drivers installed?
 


Latest nvidia drivers are installed already and just tried to uninstall the video enhancement app but seems like id didn't change anything 🙁(
