8 bit banding question

Hi, I noticed you said there is noticeable 8 bit banding if a 10 bit signal isn’t selected but I wanted to ask. Was this tested with HDR on or off? I’ve recently discovered that when you turn windows hdr on with an 8 bit signal it says “8 bit with dithering” and this seems to imply to me that the GPU is performing its own dithering before the signal gets to the monitor so I wanted to ask would it be possible if you could test the gradient with an 8 bit signal + windows hdr on and let me know how it compares to 10 bit signal? thanks
