iiyama is expanding its G-Master line with two curved Red Eagle monitors. Both the G2466HSU and the GB3266QSU were designed with curved screens, low response times and high refresh rates for gaming. 

The iiyama G-Master Red Eagle G2466HSU is a 24-inch monitor with a Full HD curved (1500R) VA panel and a 165Hz refresh rate. This 8-bit panel has a 1ms MPRT response time, typical brightness of 250 nits and a contrast ratio of 3000:1. The monitor is certified with FreeSync Premium for a tear-free gaming experience, multiple colour presets to choose from, and Black Tuner to brighten up darker areas. As most modern monitors, it also features a low blue light mode and flicker-free technology to reduce the user's eye strain.

The iiyama G-Master Red Eagle GB3266QSU comes with a 32-inch curved (1800R) VA panel instead, featuring a QHD resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and 1ms MPRT. The contrast ratio of 3000:1 and 400 nits of typical brightness allows this 8-bit panel to cover up to 96% of the sRGB colour gamut and 72% of the NTSC spectrum. Just like the G2466HSU, it features FreeSync Premium, Black Tuner, game modes/colour presets, flicker-free technology, and blue light reducer.

Regarding the monitors' connectivity, both feature 2x internal speakers (2W for the G2466HSU and 5W for the GB3266QSU), 3.5mm audio jacks, and 2x HDMI ports each. The G2466HSU features only one DisplayPort, while the GB3266QSU comes with two. Additionally, the GB3266QSU features a USB-hub with 4 USB ports, from which 2 are USB 3.0 and 2 are USB 2.0). These two monitors also come with VESA 100x100mm support and tilting capabilities. The GB3266QSU goes a bit further on the ergonomics, with the included stand allowing height adjustment and swivel.

Pricing and availability details were not disclosed yet. You can learn more about the G2466HSU HERE, and the GB3266QSU HERE.

Iiyama Red Eagle G-MASTER GB2760QSU-B1 27in 144Hz Monitor Review https://www.kitguru.net/peripherals/james-morris/iiyama-red-eagle-g-master-gb2760qsu-b1-27in-144hz-monitor-review/ https://www.kitguru.net/peripherals/james-morris/iiyama-red-eagle-g-master-gb2760qsu-b1-27in-144hz-monitor-review/#respond Tue, 11 Jun 2019 08:20:14 +0000 https://www.kitguru.net/?p=413651 Want a quality, high refresh monitor when gaming, but don't want to break the bank?

Although Iiyama is more a brand from which we expect to see professional screens, the company is also beginning to impress us with the good value of its gaming monitors. The Red Eagle G-MASTER GB2760QSU-B1 is essentially the bigger 27in brother of the Red Eagle G-MASTER GB2560HSU, which provides high-refresh gaming for a decent price. The GB2760QSU-B1 also offers 144Hz and adaptive sync, but ups the resolution to 2,560 x 1,440 to go with the larger diagonal.

At under £350, it's still quite reasonably priced, although gamers are starting to look at curved models now at all display sizes. A TN panel is used, allowing for a fast 1ms pixel response, plus a fairly typical 350cd/m2 brightness and 1,000:1 contrast.

Video inputs include HDMI and DisplayPort, but there's also DVI in case you need to connect an older graphics card. In case you don't have separate audio amplification to hand, there are stereo 2W speakers, although a minijack is available for headphone attachment. You also get a two-port USB 3.0 hub to facilitate connecting external peripherals.

The usual physical adjustments are on hand, with the ability to swivel 90 degrees left or right, tilt forward 5 degrees and backwards 20 degrees, and even pivot into portrait. There's height adjustment, too.

So nothing obvious is missing from the specification, and with most 27in screens that offer 144Hz and this resolution costing more, there's plenty of potential here. Let's find out if the Red Eagle can put the cat amongst the pigeons.

Specification:

  • Screen size: 27-inch, 16:9 aspect
  • Native resolution: 2,560 x 1,440
  • Refresh rate: 144Hz, AMD FreeSync
  • Panel type: TN
  • Contrast ratio: 1,000:1 (typical)

  • Tilt: 5 degrees forward, 22 degrees backward
  • Raise: 130mm
  • Swivel: 45 degrees left and right
  • Portrait: Yes
  • Other: Audio output, 2W stereo speakers

Retail Price: £338.99 (inc. VAT)
