iiyama - G-Master GCB3480WQSU-B1

I'm also trying to decide between those two monitors (Philips and AOC) and the iiyama GCB3480WQSU-B1: [https://iiyama.com/gb\_en/products/g-master-gcb3480wqsu-b1/](https://iiyama.com/gb_en/products/g-master-gcb3480wqsu-b1/) Philips is the cheapest, but seems to be out of stock currently... so I might need to go to one of the other two... I see you got the Philips and happy with it! How's the glare/reflections? Do you by any chance have a wall outlet power meter ([something like this](https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/S9546dbb0c79c4c15a34f631447f2e711N.jpg)) and can measure its power consumption from the wall? Tech specs say 31W in SDR mode and 60W in HDR mode. AOC isn't very efficient at 45W/82W and iiyama seems to be the most efficient of the 3 at 26W/52W (but not a huge difference to the Philips). This will be my work monitor and I'll have it on many hours a day... so efficiency matters a bit :-) If I can't get the Philips I might go for the iiyama... did you consider that one when you were deciding?

Thank you for the reply and the trouble testing it. I had my mind nearly decided on the Philips last night, but it went out of stock on Amazon... In the meanwhile a refurbished unit of the iiyama showed up on Amazon Warehouse, 100€ cheaper than the normal price, so I order it before it disappeared... The only defect it mentioned was a "scratch on metal". Which I don't care too much if it can save me 100€ :-) Hopefully it's a scratch on the base, which I won't use (I'll be mounting on an arm using the VESA mount). I didn't know the iiyama brand until a few months ago. At a place I work at sometimes they bought a very expensive lab equipment (100k or more) that came with a PC and the monitor was iiyama... At first I thought it was just one more of those Chinese low quality brands with weird names you find on aliexpress and I was wondering why they'd ship that with a very expensive lab equipment... But after a bit of research I realized it's actually a fairly reputable Japanese brand that has been making LCD panels for quite a while... Anyway I'll get it next week and I'll test it out... If I don't like it I can always return for full refund. The power consumption numbers are misleading... iiyama puts the HDR mode value in the general specs, while Philips uses the SDR mode value. Amazon provides spec sheets for energy consumption according to some european directive (I guess it must be mandatory now) and the iiyama model is actually slightly more energy efficient than the Philips. Also from those specs sheets, it seems that in general in HDR mode monitors (of any brand) seem to use nearly twice as much power as in SDR mode. I guess in HDR it needs a lot more processing than SDR.

Ja mam Iyama GCB3480WQSU-B1 i jestem bardzo zadowolony. Plusy: jest bardzo duży Minusy: nie ma regulacji góra dół Ogólnie polecam duże monitory, bardzo wygodnie się na nich pracuje.

IIyama 34" 2k Ultrawide CPU i-11600 32Gb RAM 3060Ti 8Gb Quality mid-low except distance on-foot, otherwise some exobio is not rendered. Framerate locked at 60fps. Looks really, really good after 24" FullHD. On-foot activity sometime freezes. Due to this, and due to the NMS is too heavy for 2k and my VC, and crashes when hitting Alt-Tab "Not enough video memory", upgrade is imminent,

I have an IIYAMA 1440p 34' ultrawide. It is VA, but it's great for me and I only dislike when I am scrolling quick on a dark background with light text. It will have some ghosting then, but in games I don't notice it at all.
