10-bit monitor showing 8-bit on test ramp file

[shadmed]

I just got a new monitor for photo editing and graphic design, plugged it into my 970 with a display port, switched both in the Nvidia settings to 10bpc and Photoshop settings to support 30bit, yet the test ramp file from this website still show banding. Any help?

I google, and there are conflicting posts as to whether consumer grade cards support 10bit or only available on Quadro cards, or some not supporting OpenGL 10bit.

What's the situation on how to get 10bit?  Why are there so little resources on compatibility guides?

As far as I know only the Quadro cards support 10 bit. It is one of their main selling points for creators and professionals. 

 

I do however know that AMD does in fact support 10 bit on their consumer cards which is a nice point for the red team.

 

I just double checked the 900 series page on Nvidia and there is no mention of 10 bit support. The quadro pages to mention it though.
