How do you tell what percentage of AdobeRGB colors a monitor supports?
Is there some software that does that?

Wide color gamut models with numbers above 90% will list this in their specs

Your calibration software is liable (I know mine does Spyder 4), to provide this information for you after calibration.

I get better calibration results from Argyll+dispcalGUI than by Datasoft(Spyder) or X-Rite software.

+1

ArgyllCMS (and dispcalGUI, the GUI for calibrating screens) is a great piece of software indeed. I even use it for calibrating my proof printers (with a Fogra39 media wedge).

It's free, by the way. smile
