You just have to plug the monitor in...Then you can tweak the colors/contrast etc, but that's personal taste, there's no "best setup"

Very nice rig btw 🙂!

You can go and download the "display driver" aka color profile. Here you can also update the firmware. https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/product/aw3225qf-monitor/drivers

 

Make sure the monitor is set to whatever you want. for example 240hz

If you never had a G-Sync monitor before, these settings should help you dial them in: G-SYNC 101: Optimal G-SYNC Settings & Conclusion | Blur Busters

 

Other than that, just pick whatever settings look best to you. "Best settings" don't really exist, what you mean is probably "most accurate" in which case use the out of the box settings, as this monitor already has very good color accuracity. Use Peak 1000 for the best HDR experience. For more Info on the monitor you can watch this video:

 

 

Also, you should probably disable Dolby Vision until Microsoft fixes the Windows implementation, as mentioned in the video.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

Even with 1k dimming, HDR is still a fallacy. You're not going to watch HDR movie content on it, HDR gaming? Cookie cutter.

Just my 2c with my Sony VA Bravia TV, which btw is a much better panel than anything big & OLED.

I can't stand organic diodes murder my eyes on big displays. Will wait for micro LED.
