However, since it does have a native Gamma control in the OSD, you can set the Gamme up to 2.5 or even the highest one 'Game'.

It also does have the same 'Color Banding'. It does have the same Panel, a slightly more grainy Coating. I had this one, and i switched over to the Acer XB241 YU. However, this also makes Banding more visible. Almost no difference to my IPS Dell U2414H). You pretty much HAVE to reduce Gamma in drivers to 0.7 to 0.9, in order for colors to not look this 'washed out' (then colors are pretty damn nice. One of the problemsis, Dell has a horrible OSD without any features. However, in these TN / 1440p / 144+Hz panels it's mostly visible. Also most TN panels, also some IPS panels. Not only that, every single OTHER Monitor with same specs suffers from this. I also got a 2nd model from Dell, exact same problem (don't know why they send me this unit, since i told them what's going on. I had this Dell, and was quite satisfied with it (aside from Banding, but the Price made it okay). Either they have it, or they don't notice it (despite it beeing there). I have not seen one user, who has zero Color Banding. EVERY single Dell S2417dg suffers from this Problem.
