new system, same screen, a different experience

[Angry_Kitten]

I had windows 7 with a crappy system around it. Things did look good to me on my lcd hdtv.  

 

NEW system is running windows 10 PRO  with an asus dual rx 5500xt 8GB evo OC.....  HMI is very different experience.  EXtremely bright, need alot of time to get things figured out. 

 

Anyone have good suggestions as to how to readjust the system to the game for best results?

That is primarily controlled by your GPU drivers in conjunction with the EDID returned for your tv. If settings for your GPU drivers can't be changed to make the display recognized as a PC monitor instead of a TV then you might need to override settings with a program called Custom Resolution Utility. Things to look for before resorting to the latter are: color output range and color bit depth. Ideally you want full range RGB.

the GPU and drivers recognize it as a led LCD HD  tv monitor, just things look crappy on it 

 

however i have seen the MAIN photo site i use has been making images excessively  bright last year or so, and with current monitor settings im getting photos to look like old 1960s color photos from national geographic.
