YEYIAN Proact FV24 YMC-FV234-M1 34" Black

A no-name monitor with name-brand performance. The YEYIAN Proact FV24 is the budget ultrawide you buy when you want to spend money on your GPU, not your screen.

What surprised us most is the color performance. Hitting 92% DCI-P3 and 129% sRGB on a budget-focused VA panel is a standout result, landing in the 92nd percentile of our database. That's professional-grade territory on a gaming monitor. The 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time keep motion smooth, and G-Sync works as advertised to eliminate tearing. It's not the absolute fastest panel we've tested, sitting in the 82nd percentile for overall performance, but the combination of speed and color accuracy is rare at this price. The 350-nit brightness is solid for indoor use, though HDR10 support is more of a checkbox feature than a transformative experience without local dimming.

The obvious comparison is against something like the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6. That Samsung will destroy this YEYIAN in contrast and HDR with its OLED panel, but it also costs nearly three times as much. The LG UltraGear 32GX850A-B is another strong competitor with better brand cachet and a faster IPS panel, but you lose the ultrawide format and the deep VA contrast. If you're cross-shopping the ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQDMG, you're looking at a smaller 27-inch OLED that's better for competitive shooters. The YEYIAN carves out its own lane: it's the budget ultrawide king for people who want cinematic single-player immersion and don't need 360Hz reflexes.

This is a steal. For somewhere between $220 and $280, you're getting a feature set that competes with monitors costing $100 to $200 more. The stand alone, with full height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments, is something budget brands usually cheap out on. If you're building a mid-range gaming rig and want that ultrawide immersion without blowing half your GPU budget on the screen, this is the smart money move.

YEYIAN isn't a name that gets thrown around in monitor forums like ASUS or LG, but the Proact FV24 makes a strong case for paying attention. This is a 34-inch ultrawide that nails the fundamentals for immersive gaming without asking for a flagship-level budget. You're getting a 3440x1440 VA panel running at 180Hz with G-Sync compatibility, and the picture quality is genuinely impressive for the price bracket. The one thing to know is this: if you want a big, curved gaming canvas and don't care about chasing OLED blacks, this monitor delivers a visual experience that punches way above its weight class.

If you're a competitive esports player who needs the absolute fastest response times and zero ghosting, this isn't your monitor. The VA panel's minor smearing will bug you. Go grab a 240Hz+ IPS panel like the ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQDMG instead. And if you've already experienced OLED contrast, you'll find the black levels here disappointing.

Buy it if you want a big, beautiful ultrawide and don't have OLED money. The YEYIAN Proact FV24 is a shockingly good monitor for the price, with color accuracy that makes games pop and a 180Hz refresh rate that keeps everything fluid. The VA panel has the usual minor smearing in dark scenes, but that's the only real compromise. For sim racing, RPGs, and productivity work, this is an easy recommendation. Just don't expect it to hold its value like a name-brand panel if you decide to sell it later.
