## What it is
A Windows utility that clamps wide-gamut monitors to sRGB (or Display P3, Adobe RGB, BT.2020) using an undocumented NVIDIA GPU API, based on EDID chromaticities or ICC profiles. It supports full LUT-Matrix-LUT gamma calibration and can run in the background to reapply clamps and handle HDR toggling.

## Use cases
- clamp my wide gamut monitor to sRGB on an NVIDIA GPU
- apply an ICC profile calibration to my display via the GPU
- make colors accurate on a monitor without an sRGB mode
- emulate sRGB on Windows like AMD's hidden setting
- calibrate monitor gamma and grayscale using DisplayCAL profiles
- keep color clamp applied after reboot or HDR toggle

## When to choose
- you have an NVIDIA GPU (Fermi or newer) and a wide-gamut monitor lacking an sRGB mode
- you want GPU-level color clamping based on EDID or ICC profiles
- you need gamma/grayscale calibration similar to hardware calibration

## When to avoid
- you have an AMD or Intel GPU (use driver settings or other tools)
- you need color management on Linux or macOS
- your monitor already clamps to sRGB natively or via EDID emulation
