Every year, ultra-wide screens are becoming an increasingly popular choice of gaming monitor among users. A few years ago, the real top was a monitor with a diagonal 29 inch and resolution 2560 x 1000 pixels. Then, slowly began to be interested in screens with proportions 21: 9, and the first games started to support resolution that was at that time unusual. Then it’s time for UWQHD screens, that is 34 inch and resolution 3440 x 1440 pixels. Here we are already talking about specific hardware that offers a large workspace, which is great for multitasking. However, in the last year there were more models whose parameters are typically tailored to sound. I am talking mainly about high refresh rate. The iiyama G-Master GB 3461 WQSU-B1 monitor presented today will not only be a great device for work, but also games, which we will of course check in a dedicated test.

Monitor iiyama G-Master GB 3461 The WQSU-B1 definitely makes a good first impression. A large IPS screen, a solid base that allows trouble-free height adjustment and finally good-looking screen parameters – this is what characterizes the model from the iiyama company. I admit that I personally have a great fondness for ultra-wide screens. I have been using this type of matrix privately for four years, but in my case it is only 29 inches. At 34 inches for the iiyama G -Master, the comfort of use is much greater. A noticeably larger workspace has an even greater impact on working in several windows simultaneously, and games with native support 21: 9 looks really good on this type of screen. The fact is, we need powerful hardware that can handle UWQHD resolution while maintaining the maximum refresh rate. However, if we have a sufficiently powerful computer, we will have no problem using the full capabilities of this monitor.

Introducing the iiyama G-Master GB monitor 3461 WQSU-B1, one of the most refined ultra-wide monitors with a diagonal 34 inch and resolution 3440 x 1440 pixels. An additional advantage is the high refresh rate of 144 Hz.

iiyama G-Master GB Monitor 3461 WQSU-B1 uses an IPS matrix, i.e. In-plane Switching.IPS screen is characterized by a specific arrangement of liquid crystals in relation to the screen surface – they are arranged in parallel in The main features of IPS panels are more faithful color reproduction and very good viewing angles – these are just as wide when viewed from above, below or from the IPS matrices are often recommended for graphic designers because of the aforementioned viewing angles, which do not distort colors and due to the possibility of a wider representation of the Adobe RGB color palette. However, it is not a flawless technology – the relatively low contrast makes the black look more like gray tones.

In the iiyama G-Master GB monitor test 3461 WQSU-B1, we focus on some of the most important aspects from the point of view of everyday use. So we will take a close look at the build quality and use of the OSD menu. There will be a colorimetric verification of the sRGB, Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 color spaces with an indication of errors in the color representation. We will also check the uniformity of the backlight, luminance in several scenarios and the presence of backlight bleeding. There will also be a discussion of viewing angles, input lag (matrix delay), smudging and energy consumption.
