Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. The Iiyama G-Master GB2470HSU-B1 is a monitor with a 23.8-inch display diagonal and a native aspect ratio of 16:9. It features an IPS panel type, which offers wide viewing angles and accurate color reproduction. The display resolution is 1920 x 1080 pixels, providing Full HD clarity for your visual content.

The ratio between the horizontal and the vertical side of the display. Some of the standard and widely used aspect ratios are 4:3, 5:4, 16:9 and 16:10. Speaking of inputs, the panel supports FreeSync Premium DisplayPort between 48-165Hz and HDMI between 48-144Hz. Nvidia's G-Sync also works - the monitor is not on the official list, mind - evidenced by smooth performance in the Pendulum demo. I actually just wanted to share my story and maybe listen to other peoples choices and experiences with something similar as well. Approximately a month ago I began the search for a new monitor - for the last years I've been using an 17,3'' Laptop, so a jump to about 24'' would already be a big step. I have never met any acceptable built-in monitor speakers, so I did not expect anything good from these.As expected – the bottom.My answer is that I have never heard a worse sound from any source in my entire life.Let me tell you right away – forget that this monitor has speakers.Don’t count on them the same way you don’t count on the scissors inside an inexpensive Swiss knife.Now, it’s time to outline a few important factors and what they are by which all monitors should be judged by. I wish you all a great day and fruitful monitor hunt if you are searching right now for one. And for all those who read this wall of text from start to end - Congrats and thank you for your time :)

Information about the brightness of the screen. It is measured in candela per square metre (cd/m²). In terms of supported graphics resolutions, it works with 1920 x 1080, making it an excellent choice for Full HD content. The contrast ratio, both typical and dynamic, is 1100:1 and 80000000:1 respectively.

If you’re short on cash and space for your gaming cave, the Iiyama G2470HSU-B1 answers your prayers

The stand provides up to 130mm of height adjustment, which is enough to offer portrait mode at the highest setting. 18° of upward tilt and 3° downwards is standard and it stays fixed in position firmly.

Information about the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical side of the screen. A higher resolution allows the display of a more detailed and of higher quality image. The explosion in PC gaming has provided significant opportunities for a host of manufacturers. The monitor guys haven't been oblivious to this trend, and iiyama's strongest growth has come from its gaming-focussed division.To begin with, I have been using IPS monitors for nine years. About Iiyama, I always thought it was a brand of expensive luxury monitors for professional use (artists, photographers, designers, etc.). In my opinion, this was the case before – they did not have monitors cheaper than 250 US dollars. But, apparently, they have recently re-branded and decided to enter the wide market. So in choosing this monitor, I intuitively counted on a product with quality standards higher than competitive brands in the same price range. The calculation was justified by 100%. In the end, I was happy to spend 16k on this monitor. I got everything that was important to me from him: an excellent monolithic height-adjustable stand that firmly holds the monitor on the table; a good ips-matrix with a high-quality picture with natural colors and really minimal illumination for ips-matrices; 165 Hz. I'm mostly working/reading and casually gaming on it, don't really have time or craving for newest games so it was enough, but recent work really spurred me to get a bigger screen for eyes and watching pleasure. I wanted to get something solid, for when maybe I finally build a solid PC, but yeah...
