U2414H Calibration

[OfficialSirWolf]

I bough a U2414H from dell and my MG248Q(which has a tn panel) looks WAY BETTER then the u2414h.Any tips on how to make the screen look way better? Thank you.

What do you mean with "way better"? What is "way better"?

 

Isn't it possible, that you are simply used to your Asus Monitor, and EVERYTHING else, that looks different, you consider as worse?

I would bet everything on this, because it's very unlikely, that a TN monitor (Especially some 144 Hz panels, that sacrafice image quality for speed) beats an IPS Monitor.

 

Do you have any calibration device, or a calibrated reference for comparison?

 

Maybe your Asus looks wrong, and the Dell looks very "neutral / realistic"?^^

Just like people who use Beats headphones for 4 years suddenly hear neutral reference speakers, and say "ugh that sounds bad", when in fact the Beats are garbage af. ^^"

It's all about getting used to something, and thinking this is the perfect reference how it has to be. This way, everything else can only be worse for your taste.

 

If you don't, then your Question is simply not answerable. because with this 1 line, it's impossible to know, where the problem is.

I have this Monitor, and i don't have any problems with the image quality.

 

 

Other than that... I hope, you didn't pay more than 150€~, because this Monitor is a few years old, and there are better ones. For example, i would've payed easy 100 bucks more for a newer 1440p model from Dell, which supports 8 bit + FRC, instead of the old 6 bit + FRC the Dell U2414H uses (btw, i own this exact Monitor)

Uhh. Thank you for the explanation, and maybe you're right. But i'll leave this here to show the difference. The u2414h is the right one. I can distingue the colors better but in g

The u2414h is the right one. I can distingue the colors better but in general i prefer the mg248q
