Just watch it. I know HDR has the potential to be great for gaming, but its dependent on not only game support, but some subjective programming of the game's colors by a game artist. The results ended up being worse on the HDR version of the game than the standard version, so Nvidia simply cheated and nerfed the monitor settings for the regular panel to make sure it looked as washed out as possible in comparison to the super expensive HDR monitor.
The only benefit I see for HDR monitors for gaming is possibly a better backlight uniformity due to all the LED zones, but the HDR aspect of the whole thing is premature and just a gimmick for now.
