Hi!

So this thing applies to all games I'v been playing.

I will attach 2 screenshots - 1st one from random youtube gameplay and 2nd from my gameplay.

I play on PC powered by GTX 780 on max settings.

This pic is from youtube:

This one from my gameplay:
ACU_2014_11_15_20_22_36_07.jpg


The problem for me is that my game looks worse IMO. Sure textures are good and resolution is good, but colors look like they are crushed. Also the lighting and shadow effect in youtube videos are so much better.

Can anyone suggest what could be a problem ? If neede I can provide more screenshots for better understanding what I mean.

Thx!

Can anyone see now what I mean ?

Youtube gameplay has better blacks, shadow lighting. Mine looks like it is washed out.

These are from ps4. but the same is with pc gameplay. My gameplay colours look washed out and dirty and also lighting is much poorer. This could not be the problem with hdmi cable right ?
