Environment:

• Photoshop Beta (latest version as of report date)

• macOS (current version)

• Mac Studio M2 Max

• Internal display color profile tested with both "iMac" and "sRGB IEC61966-2.1"

Issue:
Adobe RGB (1998) PSD files appear noticeably lighter/washed out when viewed in the Photoshop Beta canvas with GPU acceleration enabled.

The same files display correctly in:

• macOS Preview

• Photoshop when Proof Colors is enabled and Proof Setup is set to "Internet Standard RGB (sRGB)"

• Photoshop when "Use Graphics Processor" is disabled

Expected Result:
Photoshop canvas should display Adobe RGB images consistently with Preview.app and with Photoshop's own color-managed previews.

Actual Result:
With GPU acceleration enabled, Adobe RGB images appear lighter and less accurate than expected. The image appearance differs from Preview.app and from Photoshop's proofed display.

Troubleshooting Performed:

• Verified embedded document profile is Adobe RGB (1998)

• Tested Assign Profile and Convert Profile workflows

• Verified Color Management Policies are set to Preserve Embedded Profiles

• Tested different monitor color profiles in macOS

• Verified Preview.app displays the image correctly

• Verified Proof Colors with Internet Standard RGB (sRGB) displays the image correctly

• Disabled GPU acceleration and restarted Photoshop

Workaround:
Disabling "Use Graphics Processor" immediately resolves the issue. After disabling GPU acceleration, the Photoshop canvas matches Preview.app and displays the image correctly.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open an Adobe RGB (1998) PSD in Photoshop Beta on a Mac Studio M2 Max.

2. Leave "Use Graphics Processor" enabled.

3. Observe that the image appears lighter/washed out compared to Preview.app.

4. Enable View > Proof Colors with Proof Setup set to Internet Standard RGB (sRGB) and observe that the image appearance becomes correct.

5. Disable "Use Graphics Processor" in Preferences > Performance.

6. Restart Photoshop.

7. Reopen the PSD.

8. Observe that the image now displays correctly without requiring Proof Colors.

Notes:
The issue appears related to Photoshop GPU rendering/compositing path, as the image data, embedded profile, and color management settings appear to be correct and disabling GPU acceleration resolves the problem consistently.

Same here. Turning off "Use Graphics Processor" and the issue was fixed.

I also have the issue and added a post mistakenly tagging it to the Proof Colors menu option. Just for the record the issue does not appear in 27.7.  Thanks for the tip about the Graphics Processor option.

Same problem 27.8.0, and temporarily fixed. Let's wait for a new update to fix this issue.

I have the same problem on beta 27.8.0 images looked washed out. Disabling the GPU helps, as well as enabling proofing colours (command-Y), but neither ‘solution’ is acceptable. Regular Photoshop works fine, previous beta als was okay.

I turned off "Use Graphics Processor" here and the issue was fixed.
