so i was just looking through system settings and i saw this under "color", so now i want to make sure my colors are actually displaying correctly. making a profile seems to do nothing, and clicking on "view details" also does nothing

Honestly It's probably fine out of the box unless you're doing really intensive graphics work.

If you'd like to mess around with the setting to find what looks best to you you can play around with the default profile.

If you'd like to set this up properly you can put in a profile that is recommended by your monitor manufacturer (which if you didn't buy a really high end monitor they might not have bothered with), or (the best way) you'll need third party hardware that can test the screen in the environment you're going to be using it in to really dial in the colors.
