I'd like to see that too, as there's definitely an obvious improvement. It might even be an improvement over my own colourmeter correction, although I'll have to re-measure it with the changes. And this corrects the UI too, not just the games.

I wouldn't expect it to match the OLED mind you, just because of contrast and a wider colour gamut (and HDR) but it might be enough for some.

One other thing I'd like to see is a decky plugin or some sort of quick settings for the display changes, since you change them on the fly already. It just takes more steps than I'd like.

EDIT: Most likely the OLED will have settings to adjust too, so comparisons might not always be like for like. For accuracy in most games, that would be emulating the sRGB gamut on both displays at 6500k. Of course, it's all down to taste when actually playing.
