You really should download AVS HD709 and try that, or at least go here, to set your brightness & Contrast, and Gamma: LCD monitor test images

Personally I use both, and find the best middle ground. Calibrating any monitor or TV is give & take, you need to find the best balance your set can give, as no monitor other than the ones pro's use(TV & film editors) are going to give you perfect viewing even with a colorimeter.

Ok Guys I have a question on how HWMonitor reports your fans, as I am getting a tad confused with its displaying my fans. Going to show you two pic's. This is what HWM shows me for fans running on my rig. Problem is I only have 5 FANS installed, not the 7 fans its showing me. The two I think don't exist are called "CPU and CPUIN" The 2nd pic shows my pump speed and another fan ....with a different speed than all the rest of the fans. Unless of course I have 3 invisible fans installed. This is driving me nuts...LoL

CPU fan(s) should be fans on the radiator but that one is also in Corsair part. probably same thing reported in two places.
