ATI Digital Vibrancy?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.videocards.ati (More info?)

Just wondering if, like nVidia's cards, the radeon series has any digital
vibrancy settings - to make colors..err.. more vibrant.
The reason I ask is I have an oldish 21" monitor whose default colors are a
little on the weak side.
I previously had a Gf4Ti4600 which was great for the time I had it and its
color vibrancy slider was excellent - really helped those colors along. So..
does ATI have a tool or such which does the same thing?
Thanks...

Its called SATURATION on most cards, and yes they all do have this setting

I can't find any setting for this on ATI's control panel, there's a tab
called 'superposition' (note: my drivers are French) and there's a
slider for saturation, as well as for brightness, gamma, contrast,
teint, but all these sliders are greyed out.. Under the Color tab,
there are 3 sliders: brightness, contrast and Gamma, these one I can
adjust, but there's no saturation.

No, there isn't any setting that will match Nvidia's Digital Viberance
feature unfortunately. It's the one thing I miss the most from
switching to ATI. I found the closest fix is to download a free
program called 3Deep found at http://majorgeeks.com/download3410.html
It's supposed to be shareware but I seem to continue to use it after
the 30 days without any problem.

3Deep comes bundled for free with most video cards. I'm pretty sure my
9800pro came with a copy. What's better than 3Deep though is
"Colorific" which is made by the same company but it is expensive and
the only time I ever got it bundled for free was when I bought a
Creative Geforce2 card. It's a good prog to have though.
