Immersive gaming

Immerse yourself in your game with this curved monitor from MSI. The 29.5-inch VA panel offers true-to-life colours and a superior dynamic contrast ratio (DCR) of 100,000,000:1. A detailed picture awaits you with a WFHD resolution of 2560 x 1080 pixels for intense emotions in every game.

In addition, the back of the monitor features an RGB LED strip with Mystic Light, allowing you to fully customise the lighting and synchronise it with your other Mystic Light compatible devices.

FreeSync, 1 ms, 200 Hz

With a high refresh rate of 200 Hz, this MSI monitor delivers a smooth display with ultra-detailed images, even in the midst of the action. This is ideal for the perfect gaming experience, especially for fans of FPS and other fast-paced games where victory is often decided by a few hundredths of a second! Ghosting will be a thing of the past, because with a response time of 1 ms, you can be sure that you will always enjoy image transitions without suffering from image retention.

AMD's FreeSync technology addresses the input lag, tearing and jerkiness that can sometimes occur in games. By synchronising the refresh rate of your monitor with that of your graphics card, it allows you to benefit from a perfectly clear image, without artefacts or lag sensation.

    To be recommended

    Very good screen, just the right size, good resolution.
    The LEDs on the back are a nice little extra.
    The edges are thin, which is nice.

    Good product and incredible delivery time

    The product meets my expectations. As a poker player, I needed a wide screen so that I could read all my tables clearly.
    The fact that it's curved also adds a little extra visual comfort.

    Also, the ultra-fast delivery times, with next-day delivery at a time of my choosing, are perfect!

    Perfect, for personal use only

    Frankly, having only a 60cm deep desk, it is perfect, not imposing in front of the eyes and its width allows to open several windows for a good visual comfort.
    The foot is also very useful to adjust the height, in addition to being able to rotate it.
    I use it mainly for work, it's perfect. I use it mainly for work, it's perfect. For watching movies or videos it's also very good (I don't have an expert eye to have more technical details on this point of view)

    Top

    I'm going from an old 60Hz desktop monitor with crazy latency, to this! Well I can assure you that you can see a big difference in the games in terms of image quality. With my RTX 3080 X Trio the rendering is really beautiful and it's nice to play in higher resolutions without latency or visual defects.
    This is the first time I've bought a curved screen, I wasn't necessarily a fan of it and didn't really see the point. After a short period of adaptability, I won't go back, you're much more immersed in the game and there are no display problems if you're not perfectly in the centre line.
    I'm just taking off one star because the 21:9 format is sometimes annoying in some games, it cuts off the map. The 16:9 format would be more suitable in my opinion, which is why I also took the big brother of this screen as a second monitor, the MSI 31.5" LED - Optix G32CQ4 .

    Good material, not easy to set up

    Very nice screen for working and playing. The graphics settings are not obvious, it is better to go directly to the graphics card.
