Update:I rolled back to the older M3B102 firmware and the black bar issue on my desktop went away.  The transitions from the black to the lighter elements are harsher in HDR on the desktop than if I am running SDR but it's not too bad.  I still can't get SDR into a standard color mode that is not oversaturated like DCI-P3.  In HDR the colors are fine so I will just use that.
I have an issue where HDR (either True black or peak 1000) is displaying pure blacks as a grey and having horrible transitions from black to lighter elements. Often times the transitions result in bars I recently changed from Windows 10 to Windows 11 and updated the firmware of my monitor to M3B103, so unfortunately I don't know what the primary culprit is? [IMAGE]HDR on [IMAGE]HDR off The black bars you see are static to the image, so if I open the picture in a photo viewer and move it around the black bars move with the image and are not stuck to any location of the monitor. Other images have a more pixelated transition from blacks instead of the bars. I am using a 3060 Ti and I have an Intel CPU. To help show just how bright most of the blacks are, I took a picture of what this black test looks like.
