Display Settings Automatic Change Mode

OP - I agree about the 2016 TV. 3D is why I have it too. A great TV but my 1060 GPU+madVR upscale much better in some circumstances. Normal bright scenes look fine upscaled by the TV. My go to for checking settings are certain HD GoT scenes. In dark scenes or gray snowy scenes the TV upscaling has a lot of banding. MadVR looks great.
I had the sparkles problem. Your TV or PC is not set up properly. My problem was that the TV switches into HDR mode after you start an HDR movie so TV settings changes that I was making while looking at the desktop weren't affecting my HDR mode.
What I had to do was while playing HDR content go into the TV settings and change the Black Level to High. Sorry I don't remember exactly where that setting is. It was a long time before I found out that Black Level wasn't just a picture setting but changing from PC levels (0-255) to TV levels (16-235). You may need to readjust your picture settings after that.
Then in the madVR settings under Devices -> Display -> Properties select PC Levels (0-255).
Then set your GPU to RGB Full.

I also have the problem of sticking in HDR mode if I "back" (hitting the back button) out of a movie instead of hitting "stop". It doesn't matter for other content so I never paid attention to what button on my remote I used. Your solution may be that simple. When I make the mistake of backing out I just play an HDR movie and hit stop.

yup ... gpu (graphic processing unit) ... 1660 is more than enough for 4k

Ctrl+J reveals that with madVR using Jinc scaling (I think that got set by choosing MC Options/Video/General/RO HQ and Quality Setting "Best Quality") the maximum time for scaling/processing a frame is just under 20 ms. So, I have some "headroom" there. I suppose if I asked people's preferred madVR settings, I'd get many different opinions...
