Hello, I have a question regarding the HDR calibration on this screen. On my unit the square in the Windows calibration app disappears at around 1000 nits, so I thought that this must be the correct way of setting it up. But recently I stumbled upon an rtings article, that explained that the correct way of setting a monitor in HDR up is to pick the brightness figure from the 10% window for the peak luminance and the brightness from the 100% window for the full frame luminance. What peak brightness figure did you choose for your testing or which brightness values would you recommend when calibrating HDR?

You should always follow the visual guidance when using the Windows HDR calibration tool, the numbers are being reported from the monitor EDID and are rarely correct - especially as the two tests for 10% and 100% APL won't produce the same luminance. The number being shown in the tool is designed to make altering the slider easier, but it's arbitrary. Keep in mind though that there's very few games which actually even use the Windows HDR calibration tool config, so it may all be irrelevant anyway :)

Ok got it, slider to 1000 in the Windows HDR calibration. And in games which don’t use the windows calibration also 1000 nits or the “ real “ peak brightness of about 1600 nits?

Always the visual indicator if there is one. if you only have an option to enter the peak brightness figure, you'd have to select the appropriate measurement for the APL it's referring to I suppose
