- New firmware adds sRGB color support for more accurate colors on more types of content - Monitor is very responsive with no detectable input latency

- No in-menu controls for volume through 3.5mm Headphone Jack - No option for integer-based and nearest-neighbor scaling on resolutions below 1440p

I upgraded from a previous 1080p 144hz monitor to this one by MSI and I am very happy with the results. The monitor can get very bright and the picture looks amazing with the new firmware that came out not too long ago. I do wish however that this monitor could have internal/OSD controls to raise/lower the 3.5mm volume from the headphone jack. This is an easy fix with an external volume knob controller, but I wish it came as a pre-existing feature. I also do not know if it is possible, but it would be nice to be able to adjust how the monitor scales resolutions below 1440p. I use this monitor with a Nintendo Switch as well as other some older consoles like the Dreamcast (through an HDMI mod). I wish I could have options for integer-based scaling and nearest neighbor scaling. This would be incredibly useful for 480p/720p sources which can fit perfectly in the 1440p window frame. Overall, I highly recommend this monitor for both PC and Console use. The new firmware is a great update to an already good monitor!

Colors really pop on this monitor Allows clamping to sRBG via OSD Very bright 2 HDMI ports for consoles

Brightness uniformity isn't perfect compared to my older TN monitor but really only noticeable if you have something bright in the center of your screen

Great monitor for the price with nice customization PS5 looks great on it too

Just exceptional colours (wow) Great refresh rate 2k g-sync compatible Solid stand and good adjustments Lots of inputs

Bought same model but non QD version and it had a bad pixel out of the box so I returned it (this one was perfect) While screen goes almost to edge (1mm case border) the screen image doesn't, about 5mm border.

Overall I would really recommend this monitor. I think the extra price for the QD version is worth it as the colours are just amazing. The border is a bit wide, 5mm, so may not be great for multiple monitor setup, but I only plan a single monitor setup so not an issue. Only complaint I have is that MSI does not have zero pixel policy according to their website (https://www.msi.com/page/warranty/monitor) says "MSI Monitor do not have 0 pixel defect warranty DOT Policy : Bright Dot > 3 Dots, Bright dot gap < L >=15mm". For a monitor this price I really expect it to have zero dead pixels. Crossed fingers I don't have to deal with any dead pixels after store return policy ends.

Colors, sharpness, weight of stand is high so it is very stable.

The DP cable it came with is maybe 3 feet long (1 meter) and that's a bit short.

Great monitor.

Pros: very vibrant The screen looks good is reactive like a premium monitor Very low latency 165 Hz Flat Almost no IPS glow No dead pixels Excellent color reduction after calibration. Amazing for gaming. Good Viewing angles

Cons: Needs some calibration to make it look better Short in-box cables

My last monitor was a 10 year old Dynex tv, so this is a huge upgrade that seemed to have good reviews everywhere. Recommended as one of the best in the price range. This is gorgeous in comparison/ I am very impressed with this monitor. The screen looks great, and is fast and responsive. I was hesitant after reading the reviews about dead pixels, but experienced none. IPS glow is practically non existent I would definitely recommend this monitor. It does take a powerful GPU to hit 165Hz.

This monitor is worth every penny, extremely clear vivid pictures. Enhanced my gaming experience tenfold. Msi did a great job with this one.

* Super fast, this is the first of the second gen AUO monitors (this panel is the sequel to the one that started it all, the Asus PG279Q), the fastest pixel response times you can get. * Quantum dot panel, has the widest colour coverage of any monitor except the 32" version of this panel, which is used in the Asus PG329Q * Every feature included, full ergonomic adjustments, USB-C input, Display Port 1.4 (not 1.2 thank goodness)

* No calibration report like with high end Asus or LG/Dell monitors, it just means there can be some more variety between different people, hope you get lucky * No sRGB clamping to the lower colour space, disappointing * Basically only the "USER" colour profile is decent, if you need accurate colours, you'll need your own calibration, the Dell 27" and LG GL850 have accurate colour modes you can switch to out of the box.

Incredibly good. Good price too. Fastest and best looking visuals outside the $900+ 240hz monitors. Buy.

in box cables were a little short (5 or 6 feet) for my tower location and two monitor setup. Was able to make it work with some rearranging but you might need longer cables if your tower is further away from monitor

purchased for gaming based on many online test bench reviews and it lives up to the reviews. high refresh, good stand with plenty of adjustments, OSD settings menu is easy to use and you can get drivers to operate it in windows too, colors really vibrant out of the box but easily adjustable with OSD

I had been thinking about getting this monitor because of the hardware unboxed review and then it went on sale so I picked it up. I've had it for a week now and I love it. I was a little hesitant as I had seen some complaints about too much color because it didn't have an SRGB clamp but I really like all the vivid colors. Only thing I changed out of the box was the profile from default to one labeled ray tracing which I believe just adjusted contrast and brightness and I think it looks fantastic. I'm using a 3080 and the DP cable to run at 1440p 165hz and have had no issues.
