Hi everyone, can anyone help find an ICC profiles database (e.g. TFT Central’s Database or Monitor Unboxed)?

    What is the use-case? If it is for your monitor, you would be better served by purchasing a second-hand color calibration probe and use DisplayCal, especially as screens’ colours tend to shift, you should do it regularly.

      Having a pre-calibrated profile from someone else with the same model is better than nothing. A second-hand colour probe is not easily available in all regions, and buying a new one for use maybe twice a year isn’t a worthwhile investment for most people since they’re only useful for monitors, not TVs. Especially now when OLED monitors are more common, and those require even more expensive colorimeters.
