U2410 and U2412m Color Differences
Hi all,
I have had a U2410 for a while now and recently got a second monitorr (a U2412m) to use with it in a dual monitor configuration.
My problem is that there is a very significant color difference between the two panels, even when viewing mostly-white web pages such as Gmail. Currently, I have my U2410 in Adobe RGB mode and my U2412m in Color Temperature (6500K) mode. To me, the U2412 appears to be more accurate color-wise. Are these panels supposed to be that different?
I am using the same brightness/contrast/sharpness/gamma settings on both panels.
Any help/suggestions are appreciated!

Chris,
I understand very well that the U2412m does not have the same color gamut as the U2410. I have seen this in action when viewing vivid, colorful images simultaneously on both panels.
However, my problem is that the panels look VERY different using the SAME settings when viewing normal web pages, such as this forum page.
What can I do to these two monitors to make their colors match up as much as possible?

you can try going into your Menu to color setting then preset mode. there your'll find custom color go to gain hit it and it will bring up Red , Green, and Blue setting and play with them until your monitor is the color you would like it to be.
Chris is right they are not the same Panels and their for won't be the same but this will get you close.

Hi,
I have the U2410. To calibrate to my video card, I bought the Spyder3 Pro. It was very easy to use and has made a big difference with the white level and colors.
