    I am about to invest in P72, which probably have the same screen as P71 and P70 (FHD).

    Is any way how I can change the white temp to D50 (5000K)? I work in print industry and I we use 5000K instead of sRGB native 6500K.

    Now - the way of change is critical. I can make a D50 profile with my xRite Display pro, but that will massively cut display color outputs (visible on gradients) because you are narrowing the output from GPU. I need something how to change the color "more hardware way", similar how you can change color temp on "classic" displays via buttons. Is the display capable of that by some utility /driver or setting?

    Many thanks

    I don't think you can do that, only an ICC profile is capable of changing the color temp on these monitors
