    So i downgraded my gpu driver today cuz the new version kept making my comp crash. After downgrading the cpu, my comp doesnt crash anymore but the colors are messed up and they look to bright and look to "colorful" if you will.

    any solutions?
    thx in advance

    Go into the NVIDIA control panel, select adjust desktop color settings, and reduce the digital vibrance value. It defaults to a setting that is indeed far too vibrant.
