980Ti Color Issue?

Hey LTT Community! Yesterday I received my 980Ti in the mail and I was so excited about it and installed it right away. I did some benchmarking with it after I tested it out in a few games and was loving it. Today when I fired up Skyrim I took a whole bunch of screenshots, and in game on my actual monitor when I was taking the shots the game image appeared fine and very clear and bright enough. I use Fraps to take my screenshots by the way. Well when I looked at the shots later, the interior shots and the shots at night were extremely dark and almost impossible to see, but it looked fine when I took the shots. Could this be related to the 980Ti? I checked all my in game settings and everything was fine. I'll post a few shots down below so you can have an idea of what I mean. I didn't change any settings on my monitor or anything so I don't get what could have went wrong. Thank you in advance to any replies that I get!  :)

turn it up in skyrim, ive got 200+ mods and at night my skyrim is pitchblack for example ( like it realistic ) yet all other games are fine P:

well when i'm looking at the screen with my own 2 eyes before I take the screenshot, the game looks very clear and easy to see, but once i look at the screenshot it's very dark and almost impossible to see. i didn't change ANY settings, i just upgraded the card. my gamma settings in my ini settings are at 1.4000. is this common with graphics card upgrades?
