Saturation on AMD Radeon (the AMD "digital vibrance")
On AMD, the equivalent of NVIDIA digital vibrance is simply called Saturation. It hides behind the Custom Color toggle, so many people never find it.
Where to find it
- Open AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition (right-click the desktop).
- Click the Settings gear → the Display tab.
- Turn on Custom Color.
- Sliders appear: saturation, brightness, hue, contrast and color temperature.
What values to use
| Slider | Default | For games |
|---|---|---|
| Saturation | 100 | 130–170 |
| Contrast | 100 | 100–110 |
| Brightness | 0 | 0…+10 for dark games |
| Color temperature | 6500 K | leave it unless you have a reason |
The AMD scale works like DisplayTune: 100 means no change, 200 means twice as vivid. 150 roughly equals 75% NVIDIA digital vibrance.
Check the pixel format
On the same Display tab there is Pixel Format. For a monitor use RGB 4:4:4 Pixel Format PC Standard (Full RGB). With limited RGB or YCbCr, blacks look grey and colors dull — no saturation can fix that. More in full vs limited RGB.
Why the setting disappears
- After a driver update, Custom Color sometimes turns itself off.
- On laptops, Vari-Bright changes brightness and color to save battery.
- One setting for everything: the same in games and on the desktop.
DisplayTune controls the same AMD saturation through the driver, but keeps a separate profile for each game and switches it on automatically.
Saturation up to 350%, brightness, contrast, gamma and temperature, per-game profiles that switch on automatically, and hotkeys. Works on NVIDIA, AMD and Intel. First day free.

Frequently asked questions
Does AMD have digital vibrance?
Yes — it is the Saturation slider under Custom Color in AMD Adrenalin.
Why is there no Custom Color option?
Make sure the monitor is connected to the AMD card and the driver is up to date. On some laptops the screen is driven by an integrated GPU from another vendor.
Does DisplayTune work on AMD?
Yes: saturation goes through the AMD driver, and brightness, gamma and temperature through the gamma ramp on any GPU.
