AW3225QF, a bit confused on using Alienware HDR?
Out of both these pictures, which one is the right use of HDR because it's kind of confusing.
When Smart HDR is disabled in my monitor settings, it also disabled the HDR in the Windows settings. But if HDR is disabled, then why I'm I able to change between HDR types in my monitor settings? The screen goes black in between switching HDR types so it's actually changing:
When Smart HDR is on in my monitor settings, it also turns on the HDR in the Windows settings. However, I can't switch in between HDR types in my monitor settings, does this mean it's not using HDR Peak 1000 that I set it to and using something else?

@Petrarca22 Try it for yourself. Go into the dell display manager and turn off smart HDR, at least on Win11 it will turn off windows HDR toggle. If you have someway to fix this, we are all ears.

I actually reoponed this question on another post because I didn’t like my wording… but yeah, my answer is getting a little bit closer:
