    I got a GS73 4K recently.

    Overall I'm liking it, but it's going back unless I can find a way to get the screen calibration to stick.

    Out of the box it's disgustingly over saturated and it returns to that every time it's shut down or sleeps.

    It appears the only place you can turn down the gooiness is by the Intel graphics panel but the panel hangs or takes forever to warm up so I'm wasting several minutes every time I start using it.

    Is there a way of setting the screen calibration and making it permanent?

    If saturation is the only issue, you should be able to just use Windows 10 built-in calibration options the equally reduce the Red, Green, and Blue sliders.

    The stock saturation basically looks fluorescent to my eyes. Playing with the built in calibration tool doesn't do enough to turn that down no matter what I fiddle with without fatally upending the actual colours.

    Do you have MSI True Color installed/running?

    Yes, but it's only removing it that stops the intel graphics from resetting. I'd only use the true color if I could do something about the fluorescence through it but it doesn't appear have enough firepower to address it.

    The two in combo gets the screen just right, but I can't take having to constantly readjust.
