I can personally see the difference between one-off colors in 8 BPC (24/32 BPP) color depth. I can easily see the difference between 222b14 and 232c15 if they're right next to each other. But I don't know if my eyesight is near the average.

Most monitors these days support 24-bit RGB (8 bits per color sample). For gruesome details see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_depth. The human eye can easily distinguish 8-bit color samples, but it's harder to see a difference if the colors are logarithmically (gamma) or sRGB encoded. | |
