    Soft proof using your actual display profile. Turn Display Using Monitor Compensation off if you will.

    To be honest I am not finding "Display Using Monitor Compensation" option in the newest CS6...

    And how to activate gamut wornings when "Monitor RGB" is chosen for softproofing? I am testing one poor screen and would like to do a simple test.

    in Photoshop

    View> Proof Setup: Monitor RGB

    with Monitor RGB checked there

    Photoshop's View> Gamut Warning will be based on Monitor RGB

    (Gamut Warning uses the profile checked in Proof Setup)

    what is the point of your test (what are you trying to observe) i find most people are kornfused with Photoshop Soft Proofing until they figure it out
