Discover the Power of HDR10

HDR10, a popular High Dynamic Range (HDR) format, significantly enhances the visual quality of games by expanding both brightness and contrast. This means brighter highlights, deeper blacks, and a broader range of colors, making game environments look more vivid and realistic. The magic behind HDR10 lies in its ability to dynamically adjust brightness levels and color saturation on a scene-by-scene basis, ensuring that every moment in the game is rendered with maximum visual impact.

HDR's Impact on Gaming: A Visual Revolution

The difference HDR makes in gaming is most noticeable in scenes with intense lighting contrasts. For example, in Cyberpunk 2077, which features many dark, neon-lit environments, HDR enhances visibility in shadowy areas, allowing players to see details that would otherwise be lost in the darkness.



What makes Baldur's Gate 3 so addictive is the sheer amount of freedom it gives players. With a huge variety of characters, skills, and custom builds, every playthrough feels unique. You can tackle challenges in countless ways depending on your chosen character and their abilities. The game’s design avoids a rigid, linear path, letting you choose how and when to explore different parts of the story. This combination of endless options and flexibility means it’s easy to spend over 100 hours exploring the Forgotten Realms without running out of new things to discover. Because this journey is such a time commitment, it’s important to get familiar with your in-game settings from the start to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable adventure.

On the other hand, in God of War, where bright, sunlit environments dominate, HDR reveals the fine textures in illuminated scenes, ensuring that even the brightest lights dont wash out the intricate details of the game world.

For Steam Deck players who often enjoy games with expansive, detail-rich environments, HDR's ability to enhance both dark and bright scenes is invaluable. Whether navigating a dimly lit corridor or exploring a sunlit landscape, HDR ensures that every detail is vividly rendered, offering a more immersive and visually striking experience.

How to Enable HDR on Your Gaming Setup

To take full advantage of HDR, start by ensuring your device has a processor and graphics chip capable of HDR content. Common handheld game consoles like Steam Deck (LCD/OLED), ROG Ally, and ROG Ally X support HDR.






Next, choose a display that supports HDR10, the most widely supported HDR format in games, including popular titles like Red Dead Redemption, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Elden Ring.





When connecting your Steam Deck to an external monitor via a USB-C dock for Steam Deck, ensure the dock supports HDR output. If the dock does not support HDR, this feature will be completely disabled, regardless of your display and device capabilities. Ensuring your dock maintains HDR quality is crucial for the best visual experience.





Note: The HDR quality also depends on your display’s specifications, such as peak brightness, color depth, color space, local dimming capabilities, and black levels.
