It is not an HDR monitor. Dell did not release HDR monitors until 2018.

It supports 10bit color by means of 8bits per channel + FRC = Color Depth: 1.07B, 10bit (8bit + 2bit FRC frame rate control). But most software will treat it as an 8bit monitor.

I have never seen such a list. Also the FAQ Monitor does not mention 3rd party software.

Thanks for the reply monitortech

Do you know if there is a list anywhere of which software can take advantage of the 8bit + FRC type setup? And if so, how I go about setting that up?

HDR I'm not really interested in, but colour accuracy is important.

On a side note I feel like Dell should really be more transparent with this sort of thing and how to set it all up, especially since it's being sold as a colour accurate display. It shouldn't be this difficult to use the display for it's intended purpose.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply.

For anyone else reading this. I was able to enable 10 bit emulated (8 bit + FRC) within my Nvidia GTX 970 display drivers. I have the Nvidia GTX 970 card connected to the UP2716D with the DisplayPort cable. See here for more information see this =

It didn't affect the color gamut, but enabling it did perceivably reduce banding on gradients when working in Affinity Photo in 16 bit RGB mode, which is what I expected.
