Adjust Desktop Color Settings (Advanced)

Use this page to use various sliders to set the contrast, sharpness, and color depth (Digital Vibrance) of the images on your desktop.

Sliders Tab
Moving the Brightness/Contrast/Gamma sliders changes the appearance of the colored line/curves in the graph in real time.

Brightness: Use this slider to adjust the brightness of your desktop.

Digital Vibrance: To compensate for poor lighting conditions when viewing your desktop, use the Digital Vibrance slider to increase the crispness/richness/intensity of the desktop colors.

Contrast: Contrast refers to the difference between the lightest and darkest parts of the desktop. Use the slider to adjust this difference.

Image Sharpening: Image sharpening increases image clarity or contrast, usually at the edges of images. You can increase the contrast of images that appear slightly out of focus.

NOTE: The image sharpening control is not available for GeForce 8 series GPUs.

Gamma: Gamma refers to the brightness of mid-tones on your desktop without affecting shadows and highlights. Use the Gamma slider to adjust the Gamma on your desktop.

Graph Tab

Color Channel: You can adjust the Red, Green, and Blue channels by selecting each color separately or by selecting the composite choice All channels, which is the default setting. When you select a color channel, the color appears in the graph of the color correction curve.
