Just curious why you used that target, I have all my monitors set for 
120 cd/m.
Display brightness (technically "white luminance") needs to be set to relate to your ambient light and proofing light. 90 cd/m would be good for near darkness; like old CRT workspaces. 120 is good for dim but not dark conditions, more common today (mostly because LCDs make it possible).
