Post Body

Hola,

I was doing some benchmarks with my GTX 1070 and GTX 970 so I can do some comparisons when my RTX 3080 comes in the mail. Everything was fine with the GTX 1070, but when I swapped it for the GTX 970 and opened Task Manager, I noticed something was off. Putting Task Manager at the border of my display so half is on my old SDR monitor, I noticed that the contrast is suddenly way off on my LG 27GL850.

I have my monitor settings on FPS, Adaptive-Sync on (which disables all picture settings besides brightness), and Response Time fast. Turning Adaptive-Sync off seems to fix the issue, but this wasn't an issue before.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
