Color Intensity Problems

[FridgeLogician]

I'm having some trouble with my AOC G2460PF color scaling.

 

Like, okay. The linked image should be a scaling color gradient. The thing is, what I see is some of these having different hues of color from each other. Some of the early reds are shaded green. Some of the early dark blues are tinged purple or are a brighter hue altogether. And this is /super/ bugging me. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Sounds like it could be a colour profile applied in Windows.  What does your "Color Management" screen show?

That pink Windows colour scheme is burning my eyes

I've been messing around with some ICC's to try and maybe figure this out. The second option is the one that came with the monitor itself. Neither seems to handle the issue.

It's possible they could cause this, but it's also possible they would help solve it.  If that's not the cause though, there's a few other options, including but not limited to:

• Colour settings set elsewhere (GPU control panel, Windows, etc.)
• On-monitor colour settings
• Rendering issue (software bug)
• The monitor just looks like that

With the exception of the last two, they could also be a solution just as much as a cause.

To give y'all a better idea of the problem, I did the ghetto-ish thing and just took a picture with my phone. You can kinda see how the earlier, darker shades takes on nasty color differences that I want to fix.

As for my card color settings, I have them all set to "with video player settings", still no dice.

it may be ghettoish but sometimes that's the easiest (and possibly only) way to actually show the problem.  and oof that's pretty bad.  I don't really have any other ideas at this point but I hope you figure it out.

I honestly have no idea where to even begin trying to fix this outside of simply returning the monitor, getting a refund, and buying a different one. Maybe somehow getting someone with one of those hardware color calibrators to come along and try to get it to force the monitor to act normal.
