Monitors Iiyama series G-Master (gaming)
prices on 9 modelsIiyama G-Master
The Japanese manufacturer Iiyama is one of the latest to get involved in the “make the best gaming monitor for a reasonable price” war. It seemed that the battle was lost, but somewhere in 2020, the company's engineers and marketers found the right rhythm and assembled a universal line of gaming monitors for gamers with very different wallet thicknesses and different genre preferences.
Considering that today's gaming fan doesn't really need much, G-Master monitors are most often in the middle price segment. Frankly low-cost or, conversely, overly pretentious monitors are rare here and are not particularly popular. Most often, these are classic by today's standards VA and IPS displays with a diagonal of 24 – 32", increased hertz and a response speed of less than 4 ms.
Despite the popularization of 2K and 4K formats, models from the G-Master series most often have classic Full HD resolution. In the context of the ongoing shortage of graphics cards, this is more of a plus than a minus. As for the curvature of the screen, here the company's engineers have not yet found a favorite formula, so both ordinary flat screens and curved panels with an enhanced immersion effect are equally on the market.
Other advantages of the G-Master series include a universal appearance that will look equally appropriate on a desktop with a gaming PC and in the office. Additional equipment may include a USB hub with USB-C, built-in speakers and a height-adjustable stand. Well, gaming features in most cases include support for AMD FreeSync, HDR, and some purely gaming features like a fixed sight or Black Tuner mode.
