Iiyama G-Master GB3461WQSU 34″ Ultrawide Monitor Review
Peter Donnell / 3 years ago
I’ve been a long time fan and user of Iiyama monitors, having had one of their G-Master 4K monitors for many years now, and it’s still going strong even today! They’ve often appealed to me thanks to their competitive range of features and often very competitive prices too. With that in mind, I have the new Iiyama G-Master GB3461WQSU in for review today. It’s sporting a 34-inch panel in a 21:9 format, also known as ultrawide. That’s a pretty huge panel, and it’s going to deliver impressive immersion for movies and gaming, while also giving you many of the advantages of a dual monitor configuration, with all the benefits of it being in a single display.

It’s certainly a well-equipped monitor, with the 34″ panel delivering an impressive 3440 x 1440 resolution over the 21:9 aspect ratio. It uses IPS technology, so the colour reproduction should be decent, and the monitor promises to deliver 100% of the sRGB and 74% of NTSC, which is certainly decent. Furthermore, it supports FreeSync premium, HDR, and has a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz, so you’ll certainly be able to get your games looking their best with this one. So, plenty of features, and as you’ll see later, a very attractive price, so let’s dive in for a closer look at what’s on offer!
