I just upgraded a GeForce 8800GT with an ATI 5850 and have notice mainly when using Windows 7 Media Center with ATI TV Tuner card that the picture looks overly bright, blacks are greyish and everything just seems washed out. With the 8800GT it was not like this (just tested, threw the card back in and it looked fine).

Question is, what could be causing this and has anyone noticed this?

Thanks!

Just readjust your color properties in the Catalyst Control Center. I noticed NVIDIA cards typically saturate colors at stock more so than ATI cards, so just turn up saturation a bit in your monitors options section of the CCC too.
