i cant because nvidia and microsoft made it so you have to install dch driver if you update windows too much. and i did so i could play red dead but it just looks all grey and washed out with the new drivers so i stay below the v 400 + drivers. I did bring it up to them, the forum admin that works for nvidia deleted my post right after I put it there and they never reply to my twitter handle either when i ask them about it. and its not a buggy driver bc i used all 400 and up drivers and found the issue on all of them still. I think consumers are getting double-fucked by nvidia so im just gonna switch back to amd following their 6000 cards release. this is the pre-400 version drivers with the old control panel and non-official hdr-support that actually works. this is all v400 and up drivers with "hdr 8,10" even tho the driver identifies my monitor as hdr 8 compatible, the black behind the monitor menu is what nvidia uses for digital vibrancy... which is not actually black.

So I've bought a few graphics cards from nvidia - a 780, 1080 ti, and a 1050 bc I needed steady frame rates on my computer, and found they worked kinda perfectly but after drivers version 400 and up somehow microsoft might have said to nvidia that they wanted them to sign their apps through the ms app store, so they did, however in that process, they broke unofficial support for non-HDR 8 monitors. I... having an amva panel saw that the digital vibrancy slider was broken after they switched to the windows 10 store control panel app, maybe to sell more g-sync monitors with official HDR8 and HDR10 capabilities, but the thing is.. this is breaking millions of monitors official capabilities that use AMVA panels and I haven't found a fix for it bc nvidia drivers ship with the slider broken to show grey gamma instead of official pitch black to make people think their displays are inferior to the new ones they keep adding to their g-sync official list. This might be a way to make people buy new stuff but it comes off as shady and my monitor is perfectly fine and their graphics card don't actually run 4k well and im just tired of them deleting my posts on their forum when i talk to them about it, so I will probably switch back to amd and hope this isn't another money making heist like GPP where they forced vendors to be nvidia exclusive only back in 2018 only to be found by LTT to be committing illegal activity against AMD that they weren't aware of. I think this is crappy for everyone that has a current gen nvidia card and a non-hdr monitor and this is prolly also illegal and they definitely should be sued if not Microsoft for causing it, and would like to know what you guys think on this. after v 400 + drivers the digital vibrancy slider has almost no effect.
