Iiyama G-Master GB2788HS-B2 27 " black

The representative of the Red Eagle gaming line of the Japanese company Iiyama is equipped with a 27-inch wide-angle screen. To connect to a PC, there are three interface connectors: HDMI, Display Port and DVI-D.

Iiyama G-Master GB2788HS is equipped with two built-in speakers of 2.5 W each, which eliminates the need for additional acoustics. You can also connect headphones to the monitor, as there is a mini-Jack output (3.5 mm).

Gaming solution

TN-matrix Iiyama G-Master GB2788HS belongs to the category of "fast". Its response time is 1ms, which provides instant image change in dynamic scenes and high responsiveness in the gameplay. The 144Hz refresh rate eliminates stuttering, blurring, and haloing in fast-paced games such as shooters, racing, and sports sims.

Complementing the display's gaming capabilities is support for FreeSync technology (when connected via Display Port), which is responsible for accurate image synchronization when working with an AMD graphics card compatible with this development.

Quality Image

The monitor is characterized by small viewing angles (160°/170°), which is typical for TN+Film matrices. For fans of games, this is not a critical moment, because gamers are located exclusively in front of the screen. But Full HD resolution on such a large diagonal is no longer enough: graininess and insufficient detailing of the picture are noticeable.

The image is characterized by an acceptable peak brightness (up to 300 cd / m2) The traditional contrast level of 1000: 1 is designed to enhance the Black Tuner technology, which adds depth to various dark tones. But, as users note, in the dark in the corners of the screen, light is clearly visible, which is a minus of the Iiyama G-Master GB2788HS.

If earlier versions of the monitor did not have Flicker Free technology, then all current models support it, protecting the eyes from flickering, as well as the tiring blue glow (Blue light reducer).

Thoughtful ergonomics

The monitor stand has a hole for organizing wires. In addition to the traditional tilt adjustment, you can change the height of the screen in the range of 13 cm and/or rotate the display 45 degrees to the left or right. Wall mounting is also possible using a 100x100mm VESA mount.

Iiyama G-Master GB2788HS differs from most gaming solutions with a 27-inch diagonal at an acceptable cost. Comparable in terms of price and quality, the competitor of the model is perhaps the AOC G2790PX.
