The appearance is simple and powerful, the specification configuration is dazzling

Gigabyte M28U is different from everyone's impression that the cool RGB light bar and exaggerated design of the gaming display. There is no too much decoration under the pure black main color. The overall appearance is relatively simple, and it looks very square and tough. The design of the borderless design can bring a better visual immersion. Only the LOGO of Gigabyte was printed with silver fonts on the bottom of the display on the front of the monitor. This method is distinguished from the method of gaming brands from the office/design display. A state indicator light is configured on the right side of the frame of the display. The pure white light is soft, and the dark light environment does not appear dazzling. It can be said that there is no "light pollution".

The design elements on the back of the monitor are a lot enriched from the front. The LOGO area on the top is bright surface design. It is surrounded by the traditional scrub surface. The trapezoidal area in the middle is added. The changes on the top will at least make people feel that this is an office display.

In fact, the OSD joystick will bring a lot of convenience to players, especially for such a display with rich e -sports auxiliary functions, black balance, quasi -star and other functions need to be adjusted according to the type of game type. Only OSD is OSD. The joystick can meet the fast and accurate regulatory needs. Above the OSD joystick is the KVM function key, which allows the player to switch the KVM device with one click. The button is long -strit, which is very different from the feel of the OSD stick.

The Gigabyte M28U is equipped with a V -shaped base, which uses the staircase to deal with excessive treatment. The face value is relatively high, and the space occupies is small. It is very friendly to players with a small desktop, leaving enough room for key mouse. The middle of the bracket is designed with oval -shaped thread holes, which is convenient for players to manage messy wires. In addition, the base itself uses a quick -disassembly design, even if only one person can easily complete the installation without the need for screwdrivers.

Everyone's playback environment and viewing habits are different, which requires the display to have a certain attitude adjustment ability. Gigabyte M28U's bracket design is very in line with ergonomics. It supports 130mm up and down height adjustment and -5 ° ~ 20 ° pitch adjustment. In addition to not supporting screen rotation, the degree of freedom of the bracket is still very high. And stable, players can adjust the display to the best attitude based on their viewing habits. The bracket installation position has a hidden VESA bracket installation bit. With the design of the three sides, it can well meet the needs of forming a multi -screen desktop.

The interface configuration of this display is relatively rich. In terms of video interface, it has two HDMI2.1 interfaces, a DP1.4 interface, and a Type-C interface with KVM features. It is worth mentioning that the Gigabyte M28U supports HBR3, which can bring the maximum bandwidth of 32.4Gbit/s, and the DP1.4 interface supports DSC compression technology. The biggest significance for this display is that it can use a single DP line to do it. By 4K/HDR/10BIT // 144Hz, even if there is no latest RTX 30/RX 6000 series graphics card, the strength of this display can be exerted.

The Type-C interface not only supports 18W reverse PD power supply, but also supports video and data signal transmission. You can use it to connect laptops, mobile phones, and tablets for screen expansion to achieve mobile office and large screen sharing functions. In terms of other interfaces, there are three 5Gbps USB 3.0 Type-A interfaces, a USB 3.0 Type-B uplink interface for connecting PC, and a 3.5mm audio interface for players to connect key mouse and headphones.

High color performance, utility gaming assist function blessing

The Gigabyte M28U gaming monitor is equipped with a 28 -inch Fast IPS screen with a resolution of 2560 × 1440. Some brand manufacturers call it Super Speed ​​IPS (the official propaganda of the display is also Super Speed ​​IPS). Fast IPS's LCD molecular arrangement, electrode row is similar to ordinary IPS screens, but achieve faster response speed by reducing the thickness of the LCD layer and optimizing voltage. According to Gigabyte's official data, the M28U has a 1MS GTG gray gray response time and the refresh rate of 144Hz, which can completely bring a gaming experience. In order to avoid stuttering, tearing, and shadow of the game screen, the display is equipped with Adaptive-Sync technology, and the screen is smooth and non-tear. The other specifications of this screen are also excellent. The native 8-bit color dark panel can achieve 94%DCI-P3 and 120%SRGB ultra-wide color gamut. For professional user display, it also provides 6-axis color control, which can accurately control control. Screen color. The screen contrast is 1000: 1.

Next, we use the SPYDER X Elite school color meter to perform color and color test on the Gigabyte M28U. The display has been restored to the factory settings before the test and an hour of warm -up. From the test results, the SRGB color gamut coverage of Gigabyte M28U is 100%(126%of the color gamut volume), Adobe RGB color gamut coverage is 84%, DCI P3 color gamut coverage is 89%, color gamut coverage performance and official parameters Consistent. In terms of color accuracy, we adopted the color accuracy test of the 48 color scheme. The average DELTA E of the display is only 0.61. The color quasi performance is very good.

In the test of color brightness uniformity, you can see that at 100%brightness, the seventh quadrant in the lower right area of ​​the display is closer to the D65 standard. There is a certain gap between other areas and standard color temperature values, but the difference is within Delta E 1.6 The average Delta E is even less than 1, which is very good. In terms of color regulation, the measured color renovation curve of this display is highly converged with the GAMAMA2.2 curve. From the screen reservoir, we found that the panel model adopted by this monitor is Qunchuang M280DCA-E7B. Gigabyte M28U probably use the original backlight, so the performance in all aspects is very stable.

As a "tactical" gaming monitor, Gigabyte M28U is equipped with a variety of practical e -sports auxiliary functions, including upgraded versions of the gun -by -gun assistance/aiming stabilizer, black balance, custom cross stars, timing/counter, and so on.
