[Sponsored] The Ideal iiyama Hybrid Monitor for Work and Gaming

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, so you better prepare for both with your ideal gaming monitor.

The following text is provided by iiyama and published verbatim.

Modern desktops are no longer just for work or play – they’re often both. One part of the day might be spent answering emails and editing documents, while later it’s all about jumping into a fast-paced session of Warzone. Whether you’re working from a compact home setup or a full-scale gaming station, your monitor must adapt without missing a beat.

Two models from iiyama’s G-Master range have been built with this dual-purpose lifestyle in mind: the G-Master Gold Phoenix GCB3486WQSCP-B1 and the G-Master Red Eagle GB2770QSU-B6. Each one caters to a different kind of user, but both deliver the performance needed to handle serious work and serious gaming.

G-Master Gold Phoenix GCB3486WQSCP-B1 – One Big Screen, Endless Possibilities

This 34-inch curved ultrawide isn’t just a treat for the eyes – it’s practical too.

Designed with a 1500R curvature, it encompasses your natural field of view with a beautiful 3440×1440 resolution.

Day Job First:

  • This 3440×1440 display with its 21:9 aspect ratio gives you plenty of room to spread out. You can easily have a video call running on one side while poking around in project files or editing tools on the other – no constant window shuffling. It’s one of those setups that makes you wonder how you ever managed without it.
  • The curved VA panel hugs your field of view, helping reduce eye movement and strain. Handy when you’re in it for the long haul.

Ideal for:

  • Side-by-side document editing
  • Audio or video timelines that need breathing space
  • Having reference material visible while working

Clock Out, Game On:

  • Running at 240Hz with a 0.4ms MPRT, the display handles motion with real finesse. It shines in fast games where reactions need to be instant – think of a last-second flick in Valorant or tracking a target in Warzone during a tense moment. The curved ultra-wide panel will make you feel even more immersed in cinematic games like Helldivers 2, or while running a hot lap in your favourite racing sim.
  • VA panel technology brings contrast-rich scenes to life – ideal for moody moments in Cyberpunk 2077 or story-driven games like The Last of Us and Red Dead Redemption 2.
  • FreeSync Premium Pro syncs with your GPU to keep motion stuttering and tearing at bay, ensuring your reactions stay sharp.

KVM Convenience:

  • There’s a KVM feature built in, letting you use the same keyboard and mouse across two connected devices. Whether it’s a work laptop and a gaming tower or two different PCs, it cuts down clutter and keeps switching simple.

If your workspace pulls double duty and you’re using multiple devices, this screen makes the transition seamless.

Smaller footprint, but big on features. This 27-inch Fast IPS display is a workhorse with gaming chops to match.

A Fast IPS panel does exactly what it says on the tin with up to 180Hz, a zippy 0.2ms response time, and adaptive sync to keep it all smooth.

Get Stuff Done:

  • The 2560×1440 QHD resolution keeps things crisp, and the Fast IPS panel delivers consistent colour even when viewed off-angle – great for when you’re splitting attention between documents, tabs or tasks.

Want more flexibility? You can pick up two of these for the price of one ultrawide and run a killer dual-screen setup:

  • One for your main workspace
  • One flipped vertically for emails, chats, or reading long-form content

Game Ready:

  • With a 180Hz refresh rate and 0.2ms MPRT, this monitor doesn’t mess around. If you’re into twitch-heavy games like CS:GO, Apex Legends or Rocket League, expect fast response and clean visuals.
  • The Fast IPS panel handles motion with ease – no ghosting, no blur.

Dual Screen, Double the Benefit

If you’re using one PC for everything, dual monitors can be a productivity lifesaver:

  • Keep Slack or Teams on one side, and your main task on the other
  • Game while keeping Discord, a stream, or performance stats open
  • Thanks to full adjustability – height, tilt, swivel and pivot – you can fine-tune your setup for comfort and focus

So, Which One’s Right for You?

It really comes down to how your space and usage stack up:

  • Got a two-device setup? The GCB3486WQSCP-B1 is tailor-made for it, offering both screen space and the KVM switch to keep things smooth
  • Flying solo on a single rig? The GB2770QSU-B6 is flexible, affordable and punches well above its weight. Pair two and you’ve got a battle-ready, meeting-friendly layout that adapts to your day

If your work leans into creative detail, colour accuracy from the Fast IPS panel makes the GB2770QSU-B6 the winner. But for immersive gaming and general multitasking, the curved VA of the GCB3486WQSCP-B1 delivers a viewing experience that draws you in.

Final Take

Work and play don’t live in separate rooms anymore – and your monitor shouldn’t be a one-trick pony. Whether you want a cinematic ultrawide or a clean dual setup, iiyama’s G-Master range delivers performance without the fuss.

Your setup should work hard when you do and play hard when you don’t. These monitors make that switch effortless.
