MSI Enters The Gaming Monitor Sector!

It’s probably high time for MSI to have their own iteration of gaming monitors. Much like ASUS’ screens, the all-new MSI Optix MPG series have two 27-inch monitors: the Optix MPG27C and the Optix MAG27CQ. It’s considered to be the next level of gaming monitors with a curved VA panel with a 1800R curve. Both of the models feature a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time much like most of the gaming monitors out there. The MAG27CQ model runs on a native 1440p WQHD screen while the MPG27C stays on the 1080p side.

Additionally, the MSI Optix MPG series is the first gaming monitors integrated with the SteelSeries GameSense. The monitor uses five RGB zones at the front of the monitor and can be programmed easily with the SteelSeries Engine for in-game timers and cooldowns. Another cool add-on is that Discord notifications or any other important pop-ups or alerts can also be programmed!

The screen uses an anti-glare VA panel with 100 percent and 115 percent coverage of the NTSC and sRGB spectrums respectively. It features 2 HDMI (2.0) ports, 1 DisplayPort (1.2), 1 USB 3.0 Type B, an Earphone out port, Kensington Lock, 1 Mic-in port, 1 audio combo jack and 2 USB 3.0 Type A ports. It also has an adjustable stand to maximize productivity and comfort and supports VESA mounting.
