iiyama GB2770QSU-B1 27" Gaming Monitor Review | G-Master Red Eagle 165Hz

[@lokironac]

I got mine today and I'm stunned how great this monitor is. That 2K resolution with IPS panel with 165hz refresh rate, for that kind of money is unbelievable. The screen is so clean, bright, no tearing, actually very good quality for what I have spent on him. I highly recommend this monitor to everybody.

[@J_J_B_B]

Only one I can think of that could get to the level would be BenQ EX2780Q, it has almost the same but with HDR400, it hasn't this nice design tho

I got this Monitor yesterday and so far im really happy with it. My first experience with iiyama was during work, where i use their very big smart touch displays and i was stunned by the build quality and how good their support was. And i can gladly say its just the same with the gaming Monitor. Nothing to add to the very good review here, its just working flaweless. What stuns me the most is the price / value of this. I have seen Monitors from other brands that are much more expensive with less functions and a "cheaper" Feel in build quality. Thats just fantastic

I just got this monitor from CCL for £255 and it is so nice. Colour definition is amazing, everything looks so crisp and professional. It does have IPS glow but it is very even and I kind of like it in a weird way, it gives it a shimmer effect. So much better than my old samsung 24 inch 1080p 60hz monitor (must be like 10 year old)

Does it support sRGB (in settings)? Thanks for the review.

[@sasharey3153]

I've heard that this is the only model with true IPS 8 bit color support, is this true? I've heard that iiyama using AHVA IPS above 165 Hz with true 8 Bit color support where rest models are usung 8 bits (6 bits + FRC) which can stop users like me from buying them. Can you tell if this model trully support true 8 bit color and using IPS? Also would be nice to know such things when you testing monitors as it's been in your hands and you can run all test not just telling us 'Colors are nice'. Colors can be 10 bit / 8 Bit / 6 bit where 6 bit vs 8 bit is huge difference.

Can this monitor downscale the 4K signal of the PS5 to 1440P? Xbox series X does have native 1440P ,but PS5 does not.Thanx for the review

[@BoxCoUk]

It will downscale most definitely. Not sure to what resolution exactly but it will be the max output for the HDMI connection, you can usually find that in the technical specifications list on the product page on iiyama's website 👍

[@l4rs97]

Has anyone some recommended calibration settings for this monitor? Thanks

[@Case_]

The shot of the red screen at around 6:09 kinda makes me worried about the panel's consistency (or whatever you would like to call it)...there's some quite pronounced rounded shadows visible mostly in the corners. Nothing like that is seen on the following green screen, though there's also some corner shadows on the previous full white screen. I wonder if it's just something that came out in the camera, or if there is a real issue like this.

[@BoxCoUk]

It's just the effect of the light colour correction and vignette I placed on the clip. It looked normal with the naked eye.

[@Case_]

@@BoxCoUk Thanks for the reply! I got a great short-time deal on the monitor, so I went ahead and I'm looking at it right now. The corners and sides do suffer a bit from brightness degradation due to somewhat worse viewing angles, at least compared to my previous Dell monitor, but it's indeed nowhere near as pronounced as the shot in question might make one believe. Thank you for the review, it certainly helped when deciding!

So throughout the video I'm demonstrating using the display port at 165Hz, mentioning that you can use the HDMI instead but this will only give you 144Hz.

Documented that, and sent back for refund. Beside the screen needed different overshoot setting for windows, different for games, otherwise the picture quality was supercrap. Very poor OSD and it's functions, poor profile switch access. Basically you got what you pay for.
