Im having issues properly color calibrating my surround monitors, yellows appear to be washed out and whites aernt as vibrant, ive tried messing around with the color temps and contrasts and they dont match at all.

Any help would be apreciated.

Have you tried using those colour calibrating instruments that Linus likes to use?

You can get them cheaper off of Ebay

wouldn't they treat all 3 screens as one display seeing as nvidia surround merges them all into one?  it couldnt do each one separate unless it can section off the surround display

That is true, yes.

 

Do you switch in and out of surround when you're playing games and when you're not?

I think the OP would be best to get the Spyder4Pro because it allows you to calibrate more than one display, whereas the Spyder4Express is for single display calibration. ;)

ON A 7 MONTH BREAK FROM THESE LTT FORUMS. WILL BE BACK ON NOVEMBER 5th.
