Hey everyone! I'm having some trouble getting HDR to work on my Electriq 27" 144Hz HDR monitor. I've tried a bunch of solutions, but nothing seems to work. Here's a rundown of my PC specs: Ryzen 7 5700X @ 3.4Ghz, 32GB Corsair Vengeance (4 x 8GB DDR4 3200Mhz), and a Zotac 3060 with 12GB. I'm running Windows 11 Home (Build # 26100.3775) and Nvidia Driver 566.14, with DX v12.0.
I've gone through several troubleshooting steps, like rolling back drivers, reinstalling everything using DDU, and even reinstalling Windows. I've tried different outputs (DPI and HDMI) and tested HDMI cables (both 2.0 and 2.1) as well as DPI cables. I also adjusted the Colour Management settings, experimenting with various profiles.
But I'm stuck now. The resources I've found just repeat the same methods without giving me a fresh perspective. Does anyone have any new ideas or tips? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

What’s the exact model of your monitor? Sometimes specific models can have quirks. If you’re using EIQ-27MF144FSHDR, that info might lead to more tailored advice!
First things first, did you enable HDR directly on the monitor? Sometimes that’s overlooked. Also, I've noticed your monitor isn’t certified for true HDR, so it’s likely using tone mapping instead. That's probably why HDR looks off—if you’re using anything other than an OLED, you might want to just stick with SDR for a more accurate color experience.
