How does the monitor brightness setting affect the HDR tracking (accuracy)? Can you correct the wrong low brightness tracking of the game mode by reducing overall brightness? Would you thereby still reach brighter 3% details? I really don’t understand. 😅

Hello, for the tactical 24" mode, I was told the only available resolution is 1080p???? if that's the case it's pretty stupid because it means the image will be upscaled and have horrible quality (not 1 to 1 pixel mapping like the Asus and LG 24" modes), could you ask Gigabyte why would they take such a weird decision to lock the resolution on an unoptimized one for that size and PPI?

For night time gameplay it's like playing with a full moon with snow on the ground, the screen is so bright you'd think you are playing during a cloudy day. There's no way to think it's night time.
