MSI Full HD FreeSync Gaming Monitor 24 Curved non-Glare 1ms LED Wide Screen 1920 x 1080 144Hz Refresh Rate (Optix G24C)

First time trying a curved monitor. Overall this is a good monitor, good size, good refresh rate and visual quality. Nice product for the price. Highly recommend.

Sleek look and great display.

How come I’m only getting 120hz? When it says 144hz

Exactly what I expected

The good : Its inexpensive, and gives you 144 hz with a Dual Link DVI or Display Port no problems. Can also get 120 hz if using Display Port or HDMI; Buttery smooth goodness. The bad : Text is fuzzy on this display; Its as if they are vibrating very slightly. Makes it a bit straining on the eyes and I can see it being really bad if used for long periods of time. If youre using this monitor strictly for gaming it will be a non-issue. Im comparing it to a BenQ I have which displays text wonderfully; though, sadly only 60 hz. The ugly : Ive had it for less than 30 minutes and Im already putting in the box and returning it. Ill eat the cost there. I cant justify keeping this when it strains my eyes, especially if Im potentially staring at it for hours at a time. I really wanted to like it, but it seems my first jump into a 144 hz monitor was a dud. Probably should see these in person before making a purchase. Edit : Further research suggests that its not necessarily the VA panel itself, but rather theyre specifically Samsung VA panels. Its due to a way the text is displayed. Oh wells.

It was a gift.

The monitor came fast but was overpriced. The quality wasnt worth the money it was actually very poor, even worse than a 10 year old monitor I was replacing.

Fifty shades of yes!!

Added as a second monitor to be more efficient for work. Adjusts enough to compensate for being about 3 years newer than the other monitor for brightness, contrast, etc. Set about mid-level so lots of headroom for the future if the panels dim with age.

Everything about this Monitor is amazing, but I did see that there is a dead pixel on the bottom left corner, not entirely noticeable but for a gamer and a person with OCD, it bothers me just enough. Other than that its a perfect monitor.
