I've been messing with the settings from the Nividia Control Panel on my Z12 and find that the Digital Vibrancy adds so much depth to the screen. Before it seemed almost murky and washed when compared to the lush color enhancement provided by the vibrancy.
What are you thoughts on it?
Does increasing vibrancy drain battery life? Is messing with the vibrancy a general procedure many users utilize? How does it affect performance in regards to gaming, browsing, film viewing, or general use?
Thanks!

It just changes the colour mapping. No effect on battery life. You simply lose some less vivid colours, that's all.

In my opinion, it's a bad thing. You increase the apparent saturation of the most saturated colours by decreasing the saturation of the less saturated colours. You lose nuances by doing that.
It's much like using the "loudness" switch on an amplifier, or compressing music to make it sound louder (like most radio stations do).
This is all well and fine as long as you're only a consumer, and like it that way. But if you ever want to e-mail a picture to someone, or put it on the web, they will see something very different from what you're seeing. They might wonder what all those green squares are, or why someone's skin is blotchy or they look jaundiced -- you can't see the compression artefacts or minor colour errors, because you display less nuances.
Similar when you print something out; it will look very under-saturated, but with blotches and artefacts you can't see on your display.
