My r4 has 1920x1080 display and I also run a 24 inch monitor at the same res.
Today I was playing around and decided to change my wallpaper. I found one that I liked and saved it as my background. When I sat back and looked at it I noticed a drastic difference between the two monitors. Laptop seemed blue and monitor seemed brown (the photo is black and white I think.)
I searched the forums and tried 2 different calibration tools along with win 7 calibration tool but couldn't get the monitors to match. I'm not sure which is displaying incorrectly though.I'm seeing spots as it is after 2 hours adjusting brightness.
I understand the r4 screen has a bluish tint, but I can't find a happy medium. Did anyone else calibrate there screen? If so, What are your numbers?
Here is the photo in question.

Yep, I also find the default color to be too blue (cool). This is the color profile that I found and am using. It makes the colors nice and warm:
