    Had 34 curved ultrawide 1440p @ 144hz VA panel (on top in pic) & switched to this. Its smoother with better colors & perfect size. No regrets. Easier to run with sharp 1080p when downscaling from 1440p 1) Accurate srgb panel, not washed out nor oversaturated. Only through software can you adjust that, console colors wont pop. 2) Panel is fast but has some blur with white on fast moving objects. Reduce it by MPRT. It stops gsync/freesync and lowers brightness. MPRT wont work on consoles 60hz. 3) Good downscale 1440p to 1080p using DSR on NVidia due to 94ppi 4) Has crosshair overlay (red or white) 5) Image Enhancement is great for Switch games 6) built in usb hub 7) With Pc on, panel wont sleep Ultrawide 1080p is the way to go in Warzone or Battlefield ;)

    Its not well optimized for gaming, it only does 1080p with games that dont support ultrawide like valorant and warzone. It also stutters a lots of ghosting and it doesnt stay at 200hz constantly. But this is a great monitor for productivity and multitasking. good picture and color quality.

    I’ve been using the Lenovo Y25-25 for a year or so. It’s a superior panel in terms of refresh rate, but lower resolution. My initial impressions of this panel is that it’s nearly identical in image quality aside from the obvious pixel density making text appear more clear. Gaming on it has been pleasant so far. There’s a curved Acer monitor with similar specs (30” ultrawide, 2060x1080, 1ms response, 200hz) that is curved, and is $60 cheaper than this. You have a VA instead of IPS on that, so I’ll see tomorrow how they compare. Only other criticism, and I imagine it’s so the depth of the monitor itself is reduced, is an external power supply, which I’m not a big fan of. I preferred the built in PSU, with the desktop PSU cable on my Lenovo rather than the laptop style external PSU. Will update this review in the coming days as I test that competitor from Acer (XZ6) and ASUS ROG STRIX XG309CM. UPDATE: so my summary between the three monitors is that this unit is the best value of the 3! For $269, you’re going to be hard pressed to find an ultrawide with similar response time and refresh rate. Most will be lower refresh rate, and the one that is (ROG STRIX) is over $100 more for just 20hz additional. The ROG has superior refresh rate, and arguably more features, but none that make up for the cost difference. The Acer has identical specs to this but far too much ghosting and streaking due to its VA panel for me to recommend it to any FPS gamer, and it’s VESA mounting takes 3-5 inches of depth from your desk. But at $220 (it’s sale price), it’s a strong value for productivity or people that won’t need the high refresh rate / low response time when gaming. Summary: The 1080p ultrawide market is lacking as more and more panels move to 1440p. It seems people are valuing resolution far more than frames since 2021, despite the graphics cards that can take full advantage of them still being cost prohibitive. For those of us that are using older cards or want to emphasize frames per second over all other factors, 1080p still makes a lot of sense. So if you need a 1080p panel for gaming and productivity, I can’t think of one I’d recommend that packs as much value per dollar over this one.

    Wasnt exactly looking for a monitor that would knock your socks off. Really just wanted some extra real-estate to work with when Im working on projects at home. This monitor is one of the cheaper ultrawides I could find from a larger brand like MSI that also featured a high refresh rate screen. Overall Im very happy with what I payed for. Like I said, you definitely shouldnt expect something amazing. Theres much more expensive monitors that will probably fulfill all your wildest dreams. But if youre looking for something that works well and gets the job done I definitely recommend this one.

    Set up product, got ready to plug-in and noticed that there’s no power adapter included. MSI was no help in trying to procure one either.

    I have a smaller desk and bought a 34 ultrawide but it didnt fit in my space nicely so I switched it for this. Also, the 34 was a VA panel. While the blacks looked nice on the 34, this 29 IPS beats it in terms of colors and response time. So this is pretty much like a 24 monitor but widened. I love using the extra real estate for a better workflow. For gaming, it provides better immersion. I love this thing so far.
