Cooler Master GA2701S Full HD 100Hz IPS Monitor Review

Display Analysis
Right away, we can see the monitor is hitting 99% of the sRGB scale, which is a bit of a win, as it was rated for 95% so I’m not sure what Cooler Master used to test that figure, as it exceeds it.
The reported Gamma was a little off, coming in at 2.4 using the default settings, but honestly, it looks good to the eye, and I didn’t see any real-world issues with crushed black levels or over saturation.
The Gray Ramp did OK too, with the range from around 20-100% actually showing very little deviation, if sitting a little above the ideal 6500K, but really not that much, meaning while levels look pretty natural.
The blues were a little less accurate than the rest of the range, that’s not to say the image looks blue though, just that these tones are slightly less accurately represented. However, anything under 5 Delta-E is good, under 3 is very good, and below 1 is amazing, and largely, this monitor is below 1 Delta-E meaning it’s overall extremely accurate for sRGB content.
I set the colour temperature to Warm, and while the overall average was higher, there was an improvement to the 1F test.
