That's very low precision compared to icc profile-based color management. They don't use icc profiles in video, what they do is just make the monitor emulate (as best as possible) some standard color space like Rec.709. The procedure you hint at is a simplified one used in video, where color management is not used. There must be one for the hp Dreamcolor models too.

That's why all these monitors come with dedicated software (at least optionally) - Eizo ColorNavigator, NEC Spectraview, etc. Then you calibrate through the video card, with third-party calibrators, just like any other monitor. If you use such a unit without dedicated calibration software, it just behaves like any other monitor. Don't waste time trying to find workarounds, there aren't any. They are two sides to one coin, they are designed to work together. You can't really use hardware calibrated units without associated calibration software. Help from the community would be very much appreciated. is this the right way to go about things? To get an idea of how images might look on marketing platforms such as Facebook, Instagram etc., I've selected the sRGB preset on the monitor, which (as expected) results in a colour change.

I have photoshop's working space set to AdobeRGB, the Windows (10) monitor profile set to one I created with displaycal/i1 for the monitor while it was set to its AdobeRGB preset. So, I do this recalibration regularly and usually select AdobeRGB on the monitors when I'm editing photos (I regularly calibrate the sRGB preset.as well). If I plug a colorimeter directly into the monitor, I can 're-calibrate' the presets via a menu option on the monitor (no computer need be connected to the monitor). My two HP Dreamcolor monitors offer color space presets (sRGB, AdobeRGB, native etc.).

I usually use an AdobeRGB color workflow for photography (AdobeRGB space is selected in cameras, photoshop, monitors). If I want to see what an image might look like in an sRGB environment do I just select the monitor sRGB preset, or do I also need to load a monitor profile on the computer created for that colorspace? Or something else completely? displaycal and a colorimeter)? If so, do I create the monitor profile after running the monitor's own internal calibration of the AdobeRGB preset?

Short version: If I select AdobeRGB on my monitor's menu, do I also need to create a monitor profile on my computer for AdobeRGB (using e.g. I've spent a couple of hours consulting color management books, blogs, and google results but can't find an answer. A (naïve) question about color management for photo editing with photoshop (and lightroom) on monitors that can be directly calibrated without a computer attached.
