Image on monitor is too light

I purchased an LG Flatron W1943C monitor.
The image is excessively bright.
That is, for example, a gray or light blue color is stupidly invisible.

I changed the brightness and contrast settings - it does not help.
I tried all the modes in the screen menu.

What can be wrong?

There is also gamma correction. This is the parameter responsible for the non-linearity of the brightness function. It is quite possible that this is the case.

Perhaps you should also look into the settings of the NVidia Control Panel / ATI Catalyst Control Center video card driver, there are color settings there. Of course, if you have the appropriate video card. And with the monitor, there is usually a disc with a color profile, try installing it.

Try changing the color profile, there was such a thing, but not everywhere, but in earlier programs in different ways, added sRGB and Adobe RGB, it became normal.

Use a calibrator

LCD matrix type: TFT TN

No wonder, economy class monitor.

This is not a bright image, but the color reproduction is lame, which is not surprising, given the type of matrix. There will never be adequate color reproduction on a TN matrix. The only thing that can be done is to play around with the contrast, gamma and brightness settings in order to achieve a more or less acceptable image, while colors and tones that were previously imperceptible may “appear”, though there is still no need to talk about the adequacy of color reproduction. If you need high-quality color reproduction, save money for a monitor with a PWA or IPS matrix (the first, in my opinion, is the best choice, both in terms of price and latency). When at one time I switched from to a monitor with an S-PWA matrix (NEC MultiSync P221W, by the way, I recommend it), I was surprised to learn that in fact the colors of familiar things are radically different from what I saw on the old monitor.

Manufacturers, apparently, for the sake of users, are chasing brightness, but forget about contrast.
Sometimes gamma correction settings help not in the monitor, but in the video card (in the NVidia Control Panel, for example).
