Do you have any information about this process? I'm curious what kind of "cal" and "loading of internal LUTs" do? Call me skeptical. According to my reading on the subject, so far, from Dell's docu and other monitor brand's software, the "cal slots" or "presets" would be used to "store" calibration settings such as target gamma and color temperature but they don't give the user access to the factory LUTs?

This SW can be used cal and load internal LUTs (there are two user cal slots available). Use same i1display with DisplayCal and a newer 10-bit display port data path and for $600 total cost including colorimeter (!wow) ($700 if u want a 27in display, QHD) you are doing gorgeous wide gamut that's pure as virgin snow. I have found my 8-bit setup is producing perfectly smooth tonality with superb response, even without the custom LUT, so I will not seek to upgrade vid in this old Mac as not needed for my purposes. Safe to say that with this display you mosdef can see the limits of 8-bit appear in certain gradients. So I see why the industry has gone to "billions of colors" I did have a glitch where for a while DisplayCal got weird and started producing weird lumpy results. I shut it down, unplugged DTP94 then started over and everything was sweet again. No matter how far things advance, it seems a personal computer must be arbitrarily reset sometimes to make it work. I'm using MacOS Mojave on a 2008 Mac Pro with an NVidia GTX680 over DVI-to-HDMI /wire
