I'm curious how this will compare to Auto HDR in W11. Auto HDR is ok, but it's fake HDR and pales in comparison to a true HDR implementation. A better SDR to HDR implementation would be welcome - not just contrast and brightness but color gradients as well.

I think HDR isn't as uncommon as the author states. Sure, it's uncommon on standard and cheap PC monitors, but it's quite common for TVs from the last 5 or 6 years. I game primarily on my TV with my PC, as do most console gamers.

I'm surprised this is a thing given how well windows 11 autoHDR works. also "Developers would no longer need to spend so much time creating custom versions of PC games with HDR support" makes me think this author has no idea how HDR works.

I'm looking forward to this - I've never really been impressed with Window's own version.
