So you like 10-bit 4:2:2 instead?

madVR outputs RGB so having the GPU convert to YCbCr and downscale the chroma has always looked worse to me then the VERY subtle noise from dithering in 8-bit. Most people cannot see a difference between dithered 10-bit and dithered 8-bit even with specific test patterns but blurring the chroma is (relatively) obvious in specific situations.

Of course 10-bit is nice for the reduced dithering noise but only if you can maintain RGB at the same time, IMO.

I can distinguish temporal from spacial dithering, pixels have a minor "shimmering" to them which is more noticeable to me then the static noise from madVR's dithering (I like madVR's dithering without color or motion).

Edit: Some TVs might do as good a job at chroma upscaling as madVR, do all processing in at least 14-bit, and maintain 10-bit to the panel but at the same time you cannot say quality is only 10-bit v.s. 8-bit.
