> 3 dayHands down best monitor I have ever owned. Ive gone through a fair bit of monitors, but this was my first choice for 144hz and switching over from 60hz all these years. It has great colors, its no IPS panel, but its not TN either. The curved aspect took a bit to get used to, not in a bad way, it was actually really cool getting used to it and seeing the curve, in my opinion. The stand is really sturdy and doesnt wobble hardly. However, you cant adjust the height of the stand or swivel it, it is completely stationary. There is also no possibilities for a vesa mount with this monitor. These arent issues for me, but it can be for others. It does have AMD freesync, however I am on a NVIDIA card so I cant use it, but the 144hz seems to run smooth as butter and quite nicely regardless and I dont notice any ghosting or tearing either. For the price and what it offers, its a great 144hz monitor.

> 3 dayHad this for 9 months and its working great. Switched from 60hz and I can really see the difference. The stand has a nice cutout for cable management.

> 3 dayI purchased three of the G24c variants of these monitors in late November of 2017 and they checked all of the right boxes: 144hz, 1ms response time and the picture is great (for 1080p). I didnt really care that they were curved but after purchasing them and setting them up across my desk I found I like the effect. I wasnt looking for 4k or 1440 at the time and these are a solid 1080p display, when theyre working as expected. I wasnt initially able to take advantage of FreeSync as I was running a gtx1080 and it wasnt yet supported. After finally activating FreeSync, I was pleased with the performance. Unfortunately, I noticed in late 2018 that my monitors began having these lines that would come up from the bottom of the screen. (In the attached picture, the very bottom of the monitor is what this initially looked like) At first, it was just on my center monitor, but eventually two of the three monitors began having this same effect. I thought it may have been a graphics card or driver issue and dealt with that for a while and it seemed like after the monitor was on for 5 - 10 minutes it went away. After dealing with what was a nuisance at best for a year or so both monitors began to get progressively worse, to the point they are now where on boot the entire monitor is filled with this hybrid of yellow pixels that rapidly scan across the screen and whatever should actually be being drawn to the screen (see attached photo). I noticed the same type of pixel activity during the monitors boot sequence, confirming it is the screen itself and not a driver or graphics card related issue. Ive also changed the output from the graphics card display port to monitor and the monitors with the issue continued to have the issue regardless of where video was coming in from. When these lines scan across the screen its impossible to see mouse movement and if you do move a window from one of the bad screens to a good screen it stays stuck on the bad screen for a few seconds before clearing. I found a reddit thread that outlines a similar problem that users began having around the same time my issues initially started, they theorize it has something to do with poor soldering on the display port connection (hopefully this has been resolved on newer models). I reached out to MSI to see what could be done, but they instructed me to file an RMA (which I have to pay out of pocket to ship back to MSI) -- but after researching their policy, my monitors are out of warranty anyway and would not be repaired -- or would cost me out of pocket to be repaired. For now, unless I outright replace all three monitors, Ill keep using them. I re-arranged them so that the one monitor that doesnt (yet) have this issue is my center screen and the two that do have this issue look as pictured for 5 - 10 minutes on cold boot, then work normally -- but they are getting progressively worse and I expect that in time these monitors will fail completely. TLDR; 2/3 monitors are in partial failure and are anticipated to fail completely over time, the third one is still as good as the day I bought it. The picture quality when they are working is great (for 1080p) and the 144hz refresh rate has been great for frame sensitive gaming. After finally using FreeSync, Im not sure I could go back to a gaming screen without it. I really like the monitor, but if you do take a risk on these screens I suggest you RMA or return them at first sign of failure, as it will only continue to get worse.

> 3 dayi love this so far. 144hz 1ms is definitely a huge help in PUBG and csgo. the only annoying thing is its tilted forward a bit and you cant raise or lower the monitor.

> 3 dayI got this on sale and honestly for gaming it has the full 144hz, the curved display is great, I did run into issues on how to set it up BUT it was me not knowing what I was doing. There are various modes that you can switch to which I’d great for different circumstances. Overall 10/10 monitor for the price.

> 3 dayHad these for a little while with absolutely no issues so far. They look great. The only issue has been my lack of knowledge with a dual screen set up which is what Im using them for. If you buy one as a standalone it is definitely a good buy.

> 3 dayId honestly avoid this product at all costs. Ive had more problems with using it than actual use. Ill explain why. When I first used the monitor, it bricked the entire system, locking it up every few seconds when using the mouse. Took me too much time to find out the solution to this problem, which was to update my AMD Graphic Drivers, and that fixed the problem. After I update my drivers, it tells me to update it again to like 18.10 or something, and that update bricked the system AGAIN, So i had to uninstall the drivers and reinstall them for the computer to function correctly. After a bit of usage, another problem came along and made the refresh rate to a solid 60 even when the computer still shows 144hz, but when I use my mouses scroll wheel its a solid 144hz again. The only positive thing I have to give is the picture quality on this monitor. Its really really good for $200. Overall, spend your money on another gaming monitor; youll thank yourself later.
