Best anyone can say for those settings is whatever is the most comfortable and looks best to you. No two monitors will look the same, and what someone else uses can and will in most cases be totally inappropriate for you.

You can make the adjustments using the settings in the CCC, or you can uses the controls built in to the monitor and run through Windows display calibration wizard,

Have you used the keyboard shortcuts to adjust the brightness?

 

[StealthyBoss]

yeh

yeh

Then what do you need help with? If the screen is too bright, "Win key + X key" and lower the brightness.

No problem I had issues with my laptop LCD as well, It was a little blue, wasn't too bright though I have mine set in the middle brightness-wise

ye mine just looks to grey but ill sort it

Another thing to look at is the Power Options to see if you are set for performance. This might change how your comp runs the lighting and greyness look. Mine looks real vibrant when it is in performance mode, but looks greyish when it is in Office mode (which for me is Battery life extension)

i have mine in performance mode

Brightness, contrast ETC

k im just wondering should i use the default display profile or should i customize it?

 

[seekermeister]

I'm assuming that you are referring to settings in the graphics card control panel. It is a matter of taste, only you can decide that. Use the default, then experiment with others. You may need different settings depending on what you are currently doing, but that can often be done via monitor adjustments easier.

k thx

Use the default settings with the Graphics unless you have a GOOD , i mean excellent Graphics Driver

i have ati radeom hd 4570

From what I understand, that card is good, but ATI drivers sometimes leaves something to be desired. However, it still boils down to a matter of taste.

k i have a secondary card aswell intell core 2

 

[seekermeister]

Is that actually a card, or onboard graphics chip? The same would apply either way, regarding taste, but I suspect that you would get better performance with the ATI, if that is an onboard chip.
