Is hdr for gaming a meme?

HDR doesn't look washed out, your own picture points out that it's showing more info.

You need a capable HDR screen first. Also HDR is a meme on current consoles, only PC can do it correctly.

When we're talking about gaming hdr like in hl2 lost coast or oblivion its about highlighting dark areas and darkening bright ones, to simulate eyesight properties.
TV HDR is not just a meme, but marketing ploy, its not really hdr.

I never understood this. You can achieve ""HDR"" with displaying the game in fullbright without any lighting. What's the point of HDR?
How can a screen be HDR? A screen displays what is fed to it. I smell a scam here.

I went through 2 sets and this happened. 2 Samsung q8s. Image looked better in sdr using an Xbox one x

Because no game has true HDR yet, even worse no dev supports PC HDR since only like 10 Monitors support it and even then they are all paired back
They admitted that since you sit so close to computer monitors they tone down what you can adjust on the monitor itself because they "dont want you hurting your eyes"

PC HDR implementation is kind of bugged (Nvidia cards).

First things first - enable HDR in Windows 10 (settings -> display); then go to NVIDIA control panel and change the refresh rate or resolution (4K - 1080p and back to 4K) - your TV should report HDR again and the colors should not be washed out.

This is a case for me with 1080 GTX; in games like DMC5 i.e. I change the refresh rate in game's options back and forth - once it's back to say 60hz, colors pop again.

Then calibrate your TV (4:4:4 has different color range) - saturate the picture (tv settings) a bit more, ENABLE dynamic contrasts for HDR and the likes.

Gaming in 4K/QHD in HDR is beyond gorgeous.

DMC5 / Forza Horizon / Gears of War 5 / AC:Oddyssey/Origins all look all kinds of better in HDR.

HDR off
