MSI Optix G272 Review

The MSI Optix G272 is a great 27 inch gaming monitor with an IPS panel. Gamers will appreciate its fast refresh rate, which delivers an outstanding response time...

MSI Optix MAG272C review

The MSI Optix MAG272C features a pleasant curve and decent 1080p performance, although some color and sharpness issues hold it back.

At $300, the Optix MAG272C is fairly priced, although those who prefer flat monitors should consider the Dell S2421HGF instead.

MSI Optix MAG272CQR Review

The MSI Optix MAG272CQR is a mid-range gaming monitor that still tries to include loads of high-end features – like a curved design, a huge refresh rate and a 1440p resolution.

Excellent, high-contrast image quality Great resolution and refresh rate Curved, immersive and consistent design

Not suitable for HDR Game modes are poor Ports are sometimes awkward

The MSI Optix MAG272CQR is an impressive display in several key areas. Image quality, for starters: ignore its lack of HDR ability and its poor gaming modes, and you’ve got a screen with stunning contrast levels, great black points and top-notch...
