Hi, so like 2 weeks ago I have put together my new work pc from older compenents (I disassembled my gaming pc), deicded to install Windows 11 Pro. I have zero issues with it, everything runs normal and smooth. Only thing bothering me is a weird screen dimming issue, mostly when watching youtube videos in chrome the screen darkens around the video, even if chrome is not maximized aslo the desktop darkens. I noitced the screen dimms even when not watching videos, it just flashes for a split of a second.
I already tried many things, some registry tweaks for disabling content adaptive brightness and few other things, didnt help. At first I thought becasue it has something to do with the internal grapchics on my 9900K which I forgot to turn off in bios before I installed Win11, I tried to find a setting for it the Intel control panel, I have read there are some settings controlling the dimming, but on laptops, so I dont have those options on desktop. Now everything is disabled, intel drivers removed, only nvidia studio drivers installed, I have no more ideas how to control or disable the weird screen dimming.
Its not a big issue but I would like to have control over it.
I attached 2 screenshots of a normal and dimmed screen
