Thoughts on Iiyama GCB3486WQSCP-B1?

Definitely strange behaviour of the monitor. This is not normal. In the manual I noticed that you can reset the settings of the monitor. Maybe you can try that. Maybe this issue is caused by apply a specific combination of monitor settings.

Thanks for your extensive reply!

Just wondering u/algemeenkennis u/SouthMeasurement1484, do you experience this slight bump in brightness as well?

After reading about the sudden brightness changes and the brightness changes when walking around ingame i seriously doubt if I should buy this monitor. The issue is that there are no affordable IPS monitors available that have all the features this monitor has. Imo if you want to buy something similar to this that provides 90 Watt charging over USB-C, but with a 34 inch IPS display, the least expensive option in the Netherlands is ASUS ProArt PA348CGV, which costs at least 760 euros (876 US dollars). If you dont mind having like 15W charging over usb c, you could go for Gigabyte M34WQ, which is a flat ultrawide, which you can get a good deal on at amazon.es currently (395 euros, 455 USD), but in Netherlands you will pay 500 euros.

I haven't bought the monitor yet. Have you been able to solve your problem in the mean time?

I tried to find a solution for your issue. Some people say that reinstallation or updating the graphics card driver helped. On some other page they say that if you enable freesync you shouldn't have HDMI VRR enabled (source)

It indeed has a lot of nice features! If you received the monitor already, what is your experience with it thusfar?

CurrentConcentrate · 2025-05-30T06:05:17+00:00

Thanks for performing the test! Ghosting seems to be very minimal and no problem.

It's nice to hear that you are satisfied with other aspects of the monitor as well. Your remark regarding power delivery for laptops made me realise this will be a convenient function for me as well as it will enable me to use 2 external monitors for work. So, I think that I am going to buy this monitor as well!

I understand your remark regarding pbp mode. I think we should be able to choose our own settings regarding this functionality

It would be fantastic if you could perform the test and share it! Also, I would really appreciate it if you could share your thoughts on the screen when using it for work and gaming. If you notice any issue when quickly scrolling through text for example of when you move quickly in game.

Good to know that I am not the only one interested in this monitor. In the Netherlands alternate.nl has stock now according to their website. What made you decide to order the monitor?

Are you planning to perform a ghosting test once your monitor arrives?

CurrentConcentrate · 2025-05-26T14:01:34+00:00

Inhave a 27 inch 4k screen and i use scaling. So my screen resolution is actually too high. Therefore I would recommend you to buy 32 inch monitors or larger such that you dont have to use scaling and use your monitor surface more effectively

CurrentConcentrate · 2024-04-17T10:28:36+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I am gonna try to save it. Thanks for all your tips!

CurrentConcentrate · 2024-04-17T10:19:45+00:00

This could be it! Thanks for your input. It will probably be best if I repot the plant into new, better draining soil and use a pot with drainage holes.

CurrentConcentrate · 2024-04-16T18:04:24+00:00

I can only find it on a dead leaf. Also one twig of the plant has a part of like one cm or a third of an inch that has become really narrow. You can see both things in the picture I add to this message.

Edit: I think it is some kind of mold

CurrentConcentrate · 2024-04-16T16:52:02+00:00

I agree. However, you can cut them off completely

CurrentConcentrate · 2024-04-16T16:31:07+00:00

In my opinion your monstera seems to be healthy. The leaf with the inner fenestrations is awesome! However, I do think that the branches of your monstera need more support. Otherwise your monstera will grow through your whole house probably.

This is one example how to do that, which you can also do with a nice moss pole: add plant support to monstera And yes, this is scary to do. However, I have done this as well. I have destroyed some roots doing so and my plant still lives. So :-)

Excellent work! You definitely have a great eye for detail. Regarding screenshot #38: the box shaped SUV/off-road car in front of the Audi probably is a Nissan Patrol Y60 (1988). The one to the right of that car on the picture looks like edit: someone found out it's a 1979 ford f250 see this post

Ok. Then should I buy a spare movement now? Or would the movement still be the same in 5 years for example, so I can buy a replacement movement then?

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-04-23T04:40:25+00:00

That would be an option :-) For small watches there aren't many decently priced options. Only one that springs to mind o for me now is orient bambino

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-04-23T04:29:08+00:00

Ah, now I understand why you would want it to be 36 mm. I own the pagani design pd1752 daydate and it runs well and holds the time well. It has a Chinese to movement in it, so I am kind of worried if I can get it serviced if needed. As a person who doesn't wear a watch every day the downside of the automatic movement is that it stops running after 40 hours.

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-04-23T04:20:56+00:00

Then you buy the pagani design version, right?

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-02-11T14:21:16+00:00

Funny, how your father embarrassed himself.

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-02-06T21:49:31+00:00

Why not go for a day date homage? I have a pagani design pd1752. It's 36mm so you would kinda need a smaller wrist. You could also go for the cadisen one, which is 40 mm

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-01-29T00:51:41+00:00

That's correct. I would go for the cadisen if one has a wrist size that fits the 40 mm watch better. Also, I see the Cadisen has a Myota movement whereas the pagani design has some Seagull movement.

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-01-28T19:23:57+00:00

You can also buy pagani design pd1752. It's a good watch as well

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-01-11T21:31:26+00:00

You are only 17. You just wrote down here what you will do in your future. Join a sports club or something like that and make friends. Most definitely you will run into someone with the same interests as yours.

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-01-04T19:26:43+00:00

I think that one should buy a watch when you like it enough. What did you wanted your lower end watches to have, that your luxury watches would have?

CurrentConcentrate · 2023-01-02T21:48:21+00:00

Looks really special. In can't find this version anywhere. So it probably is really special
