According to the apple color user manual,
When Force RGB function is on, the RGB data in COLOR will send to the video interface (KONA 2 or 3) directly, and let the interface to do the RGB to YUV conversion to monitor SDI out. So it consume less CPU.
When Force RGB function is off, the RGB to YUV conversion will be processed by COLOR, so it consume more CPU.
But something happens to my situation......I have both KONA 2 and KONA 3 in two separate MAC. In KONA2 system, the Force RGB function work nicely, image looks a bit contrasted in my JVC monitor when the function is ON.
But nothing happened in my KONA3 system...!! the function affects nothing, the image on my JVC monitor remain the SAME...

I don't know what it means, either, because it doesn't seem to make any difference whether its checked or not, at least for me.
As opposed to how it really didn't work in a couple of releases of Final Touch, where Force RBGB changed the gamma/ black point, and another version caused Quicktime to render garbage while showing a perfect Preview.
