        Great screen to play on

        With good quality, a good refresh rate and a fast response time, it's a perfect screen for gaming on inexpensive configurations that run well at 170 IPS.

        Good Screen

        I've been using it for 1 month and still no problem.
        Frankly, this screen is top-notch, with superb image quality and a 165 Hz that makes everything superbly fluid. It really is an excellent choice for gaming!
        I'd recommend it for curved QHD gaming.

        Magnificent graphics

        This screen offers exceptional image quality and advanced functionality.
        With a refresh rate of 170Hz, it's a worthy competitor to other gaming screens.
        As far as I'm concerned, I'm very satisfied.
        For the record, my graphics card is an RX 6800XT and I'm getting amazing graphics on games like AOE4, Stars Wars, Middle Earth etc.

        Go for it, you won't regret it!

        A great screen!

        I was looking to replace a Full HD screen that dated from 2008 (an Asus) on which I was playing. For a long time, I was considering several different models.
        I was looking for a good screen, with a very short response rate, a high frequency, a minimum resolution of 1440p, HDR and why not slightly curved.

        The MSI 27-inch G27cq4 e2 met my expectations perfectly.

        I chose it for its very attractive price, its 1440p definition, its image frequency, and the HDR, Nightvision etc options...

        Where I'm really surprised is that this screen, which is normally 1440p, when I connected it to the X-Series or the PS4 I was able to select 4k-2160p, in 60hz only ok but in 4k when I didn't think it was possible!
        Nowhere on either LDLC or the manufacturer's website was this mentioned, it's top notch and for me a very pleasant surprise!

        A game of Forza on the X Series with this screen is like night and day with it, I'm rediscovering games, I'm hooked!
        I was also able to test the Overclok DP mode at 170hz on a PC, it's just a shame we don't have this function on HDMI.

        For 169.99€ it's an excellent deal!

        If you're not sure, go for it before the price goes up!

        No complaints

        I'm going to be brief: Very good value for money, works perfectly, screen adjustment not that complicated, fast and careful delivery, nickel.

        My first curved LED screen

        I bought it to replace my faithful 15 year old IIyama Full HD 60Hz TN panel, with no dead pixels, a tank!
        Because it's starting to look outdated, even though it still works just as well.

        (+) The curved VA panel offers much better colour, contrast and frequency rendition.
        (+) The metal stand is stable and takes up very little space.
        (+) The menu is very well designed, and with the joystick at the back of the screen, you can adjust your screen in a pleasant way, it's quite easy to get to grips with. (Image much too vivid with the original setting for me)
        (-) But I'm returning it to LDLC because a dead pixel after a week, what will it be like in 1 year's time?
        A slight fault that's not too annoying, but during certain 'black screens' (when loading a game, or launching software), there are 'light leaks' if I'm not mistaken, a bit as if the panel wasn't adjusted very well with the backlight. No big deal, though, because as soon as there's an image, there's no problem.
        The power supply is external, heats up quite a bit, and has to be close to the screen because of the size of the cable.

        The screen isn't bad in itself, I would have kept it if it hadn't been for the pixel problem.

        Received quickly and without any problems. Perfectly suits my expectations, video quality, screen fluidity ... completely adapted for my PS5!
        Very happy with the screen and LDLC!
        Thank you and see you soon!

        Great screen!

        This is my first curved screen and... Oh my god, I don't want any more flat screens, I'm converted! :')

        The picture is very nice, even if you have to spend a bit of time in the menus to get the settings just right.
        Easy to assemble, easy to install, automatic video source detection, etc...
        Frankly, it's top-notch and 100% compliant with the product description on the website!
        I can only recommend it!

        Just as I wanted.

        I'm not a gamer
        I needed a screen of a certain size,
        accurate and comfortable to look at,

        it meets my needs.
        It works without a hitch.

        As described

        Very good image quality, HDR included, a little complicated to adjust the image but once done very sharp details, refresh time more than correct, mounted on a stand INOVU LT2

        Best choice for €210!

        I've had the screen for 2 months now and I think it's the best choice I've ever made. It's a big size (27"), which is perfect if you've got a fairly deep desk, and it's in 2K with good colours. The refresh rate is very good: 170hz. It's good enough for a few competitive games and for optimum comfort. MSI is a very good brand that makes screens that are well calibrated between professional use and entertainment. However, when the screen is completely black, you can see luminous halos from the backlight, but that's really the only time you can see this. Even in the middle of a film, with the two black bands, you can't see anything distracting. If you're hesitating between a 2K 170Hz screen and a 1080p +240Hz screen, I'd strongly advise you to play in 2K, even for competitive games. Comfort is more important and if you're a maniac like me and you see every pixel on your screen all the time, high resolution is essential. And then the difference between 170Hz and 240Hz is almost forgettable. I got this screen for £210 instead of £280: a bargain considering the quality. Now for one of the most annoying points: dead pixels. This is unfortunately a reality, especially for curved panels, but it's largely negligible. Why is that? Here's a calculation to show you that I never see them: 2560 x 1440 = 3?686?400 pixels including 10 dead pixels (not black, but still frozen) --> 2.713 x 10^-6 or 0.0002713 % dead pixels. Highly negligible, then, given the manufacturing errors. The curved screen was optional for me, but given the promotion I got, I didn't take that into account. It's a nice curvature, more aesthetic on the setup than really useful. There's a certain amount of immersion, but I'm not very sensitive to it. Finally, the foot is adjustable in angle but not in height. I'd recommend models with a height-adjustable stand, or even MSI's MAG collection.

        27" MSI monitor

        Excellent screen, very good delivery and zero damage. I don't regret my purchase at all as it's a perfect screen for 1440p gaming.

        Very good screen

        I bought this screen to replace my old one, an MSI 24" 144hz with an IPS panel, and frankly I'm very happy with the product. I use it for gaming and office work, and it's pleasant in any situation.
        The difference in comfort between a flat 24" and a curved 27" is quite striking. For gaming, it's more immersive, and for office work, a larger screen means you can separate tabs and therefore work faster.
        I'd recommend it, especially at this price.

        Very good screen

        This curved screen is exactly what I was looking for. It has very low latency, a very good refresh rate, and a very nice QHD image. Make sure you activate overclocking in the screen settings to reach 170Hz and not stay at 60.

        Exactly the screen I needed, and on special offer, so what more could I ask for? I had a problem with the order for personal reasons but ldlc customer service is super responsive and was able to resolve it quickly.
        I would highly recommend

        I decided to go from 1080p to 1440p with this screen, and well, I'm satisfied! A very good screen for not too much money, with a very pleasant frequency.
        Very pleased!

        No regrets

        The screen took about 1 month to arrive, however, once I contacted LDLC, I received it the next day (I am in Switzerland)

        I was able to test the screen, a real revival for my eyes, the curvature makes it look good, the colours are nice. I highly recommend the screen

        Nice and versatile screen

        I have been using this screen for 1 month in FPS / RPG games as well as in Word, Excel, Firefox mainly.
        Negative points :
        - the colours are not faithful, the shades change according to the chosen mode (FPS / RPG game mode, eco mode...) and the colour temperature is not great
        - the settings can seem complicated (a small guide would have been welcome)
        - there is no brightness sensor
        - the height of the legs is not adjustable (the size is standard and should fit most desks)
        - 170 Hz must be activated in the screen menu: Setting ==> OverCocking DP ON
        - 0.7mm black borders around the image (top + both sides)
        - the joystick is placed too high
        Positive points :
        - easy to navigate in the menu thanks to the joystick
        - many modes are programmable (FPS / RPG / eco mode / office...)
        curved screen improves immersion
        - external power supply
        - although the stand cannot be adjusted in height, it doesn't take up much space and the screen is quite stable
        - adaptive-sync, good screen responsiveness
        - anti blue light, anti glare, good contrast
        - curved VA panel improves immersion and reduces eye strain

        My opinion: It is a good quality screen, responsive that will allow you to play, watch a movie, browse the internet or work without any problem, but for people who need a faithful rendering of images for photo / video editing, I do not recommend it. And on this last point I am very disappointed, I was expecting to be amazed by the colours diffused by a VA panel.

        The MSIDisplayKit software, which can be downloaded from the MSI website, allows you to make a few adjustments (splitting the screen, adding a visual keyboard, adjusting the colours).
