Did this got anything to do with my brightness setting or colour setting?

sadly no. it is just color banding in gaming industry and it is very popular especially on Nvidia cards.

Turn your brightness down. Banding is only really visible when you have the brightness higher than the game intends.

Thank you guys with all the informations.☺

Not really...
Banding is a standard LCD problem, just google a little bit.
Bad quality images and 8bit images on a 10 panel can triger banding. Even a in-film / in-game filter can be the reason.
And the bigger the screen size, the bigger the possibility for banding for long soft color transitions.

But sure, you can lower the brightness, but it's not the real reason.

Even all test images like by Burosch can be perfect, but you can still get banding on some things, no matter how your brightness is set. When it's dark, you just can't see it and it happens fast that it's too dark. (for a perfect picture - not "mimimi i can't see something")
BF1 Menu-Fog and Dirt Rally Greek Sky for example have also a high banding-risk.Or let's take Haunting of House Hill as a series example. They use filters if they focus something and sometimes you can see some banding in the off-focus parts, while other scenes and for ecample the focused faces etc are really nice.

I recommend to adjust your screen with some >uncompressed & professional< test images. Some companies offer a few free images for the basic adjustment, what can already be enough for a privat user. Don't use yt or blog entries for it - they are compressed and not in full quality.
After that you can set the ingame brightness with the ingame tutorial. But it's important to adjust the colors, the contrast etc before you blame the brightness, the game or your screen manufacturer.
There are also people who never get rid of their banding because it's just the well-known problem of the LCD, but you can lower banding very well. (Or you try another model of this series - it's like having some clouding or not - it's sometimes just luck and it's sadly already accepted as standard until it reaches a specific value)

But as i've said are there more reasons... adjusting the screen on a professional way is anyway really important. Some people have really weird color or brightness ideas that they think would be right, even though they're totally wrong. (And no... the "Internet-Pre-Settings" aren't good. Each panel needs its own setting... not only each model. You can see settings from the internet as a kind of rough preperation, but not as a final result. Software-Presets, however, are almost purely intended for the fulfillment of guidelines regarding power consumption and co. They also don't represent a perfect picture - it's like a default windows, works well but it's still a lot to do.)

Thanks for the knowlege, Bro.

it is NOT an Nvidia issue and it is NOT just an LCD issue. yes it can be more prevalent on a crappy TN panel but banding itself will show up on even the very best CRT as its the game that is mostly the issue.
