Iiyama XB2779QQS is a new monitor based on IPS technology. That stands out for making use of a 5K resolution, which translates to 5120 x 2800 pixels. The size of the panel is 27 inches and has a refresh rate of 60 Hz, so it is a pretty good choice for video games. As long as you have a computer powerful enough to move that many pixels without drowning.

The other features of this monitor go through a GtG response time of 4 ms, quite reasonable for an IPS panel. So, we can think that it is of excellent quality and have not opted for a bad panel to inflate the number of the resolution. This panel has a brightness of 440 nits and a color depth of 8 bits. So it is not compatible with HDR technology that needs 10 bits and 1000 nits, at least to make it HDR.

Finally, it has blue light reduction technology, to take care of the ocular health of the users during the long sessions in front of it. And video inputs 1 x DisplayPort 1.3a and 3 x HDMI 2.0. Its price is 799 euros. So it is quite affordable considering its features.
