Should I enable HDR ?

Hey guys !

HDR question....

I've been enabling HDR since I started playing DCS and IL2, and then X-plane too...

Although my monitors are not HDR ready, when I enable HDR as an option on one of these sims, I get the idea there are some effects that really come to play, and make it look better

this is surely true about X-Plane where some features are actually only available (such as some types of AA ) when HDR is enabled, but, question is, does it make sense since my monitor doesn't make it ?

The HDR setting in IL-2 is not the same “HDR” on displays. Yeah it’s confusing.

Yes, that's it !

 

I should have known, for quite a while...

 

I recently upgraded to a modern Ryzen and a 3700 Ti, so, I decided to push the graphics settings in IL2, and wow  !  Looks like I have a new sim :-)

Hey I still count as newbie in IL-2. Ehm can you explain it little bit? 

I only fly in VR and my screen in also no HDR screen so I have never turned that on. What does it do in IL-2 than if it is not HDR color space for capable displays?

Software HDR makes game look brighter for sure other things  you can compare for  yourself , it's hard to tell but I have feeling it helps with spotting like sharpen does.
