Overdriving the panel to achieve high contrast is basically only useful for office applications in an overly bright viewing environment.

I've been considering getting an LCD to replace my huge G520 and I've found the same thing. Huge brightnesses with larger contrast values. I've been looking for ones that have a "low" brightness and high contrast.
