MSI Optix G27C5 Review

The MSI Optix G27C5 is a basic, budget-friendly gaming monitor. It has a VA panel that displays deep blacks, but that comes at the cost of narrow viewing angles,...

Great coverage of Adobe RGB color space. Incredibly low input lag. Good reflection handling. FreeSync support. Displays deep blacks.

Narrow viewing angles. Bad ergonomics. Black uniformity issues.

The MSI Optix G27C5 is an okay overall monitor. It performs best as a gaming monitor because it has an incredibly low input lag, FreeSync VRR support, and good response time. It's alright to use in an office, but its 1080p resolution, narrow viewing...

MSI Optix G27C MONITOR

The MSI Optix G27C is an average VA-type gaming monitor with a fast 144 Hz refresh rate and support for variable refresh rates. It features a simplistic stand with limited mobility, and a curved design uncommon in monitors of this aspect ratio. While...

Supports Freesync for smoother motion ; 144 Hz makes for a responsive experience

Blacks are exceptionally cloudy ; Picture quality shifts with minor perspective changes.

MSI Optix MPG27C Review

£360 or $366 is a high price to pay for a 1080p gaming monitor, but the MSI Optix MPG27C tries to justify its cost with loads of features. The MPG27C serves up a superb refresh rate, a fast response time, smart software and even RGB LEDs. Can MSI's...

The monitor in our MSI Optix MPG27C review doesn’t have brilliant colour accuracy, but that’s arguably the least-important attribute in a gaming panel – the colours here are good, and that’s good enough.

MSI Optix MPG27C review

Ideal for multi-monitor setups

High refresh rates ; Good image quality ; Thin bezels ; Good price

Relatively low resolution ; RGB lighting won’t be for everyone ; Needs tweaking out of the box

If you play fast-paced games and don't care about high resolutions, the 1080p MSI Optix MPG27C is worth considering. However, more demanding gamers may be disappointed. What kind of gamer you are, and the type of games you play, will have a bearing on...

MSI Optix MAG27CQ Curved Gaming Monitor Review - FunkyKit

I've been using my trusted old 24-inch Dell monitor for the past 5 years. It's been great, but now I think it's time for an upgrade. I've been stubbornly holding back, from getting a new monitor because I didn't see a real need to … until now. This...

You know what they say … once you go large, there’s no turning back! And this is true with the 27-inch MSI Optix MAG27CQ Curved Gaming Monitor.

MSI Optix MPG27C RGB Gaming Monitor Review

It seems you can't swing a cat in the average PC enthusiast hardware store these days without hittin MSI has done it – RGB lighting on a monitor. Could it possibly be worth £450?

Truly innovative and useful RGB lighting front and back.

Full HD on 27in panel means visible pixels.

"I'm told the monitor is everything my son expected from the description and spec and great for his PC gaming. Very fast response and very smooth. I think he just wanted it for the coloured lights though :-)"
