Blacks don't transition correctly.
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hi, basically it looks like it's 8 bit or something. The black is just horrible. I can see it on the windows loading screen, where the 'aura' of the windows 7 logo leaves like a horrible fade. When gaming, Skyrim's caves and things really suffer int he darkness. Dead Island when looking at a car inside in the dark looks all weird. You can see the transition from the 'light' to the dark. I never noticed this until I got a new monitor. I've got the Asus VE247H and hd6850 ![:)]( ":)")

bunch of calibration tests.
also if you connected the monitor using hdmi make sure the monitor is set to full range rgb mode (0-255) rather than the limited mode (16-235). The setting in the OSD might be called something else as well like black level or color space or something similar. If there is a mismatch between what the monitor expects to receive and what the card is sending, the extremes will get messed up (dark/bright colors).
