MSI Full HD FreeSync Gaming Monitor 24 Curved non-Glare 1ms LED Wide Screen 1920 x 1080 144Hz Refresh Rate (Optix G24C)

This is a decent monitor if you dont have a lot of cash to drop. Dont expect longevity though, because you get what you pay for. The monitor was smooth and looked great out of the box but has now failed at the 2 year mark. Warranty is only good for 1 year so now Im off shopping again for a new monitor. For comparison, the Samsung monitor next to it in the picture I bought for about $80 5 years ago and it still running like a champ, even though its refresh rate isnt blazing like the MSI.

All around a good monitor, probably one of the best 144hz monitor you can get at this price range.

I like the way it looks on my gaming setup, the viewpoints are amazing, I love the on screen sights they added, and for this price I couldnt beat it. The thing I would like is a little thicker stand because I feel like Im a break it off if I tilt it forward to put in a cord in the back of it

I picked up two g24c and i was expecting them to be.. okay. but honestly im really blown away by them. for ~$200 these are a hell of a deal. no dead pixels on arrival. if youre sitting on the fence bc there are a couple reviews that make you unsure I strongly recommend just pulling the trigger c: some things to note with the g24c negative No on board speakers Not vesa mount ready out of the box (why im giving them the item 4 stars) you can buy an msi optix to vesa adapter for around $25 that does the trick. the ports in the back are a pain to work with. positive the picture is great responsive curve is super subtle the anti glare works pretty well. My desk has a window right behind me and from in the evening I really couldnt see half my screen. this monitor has really fixed that.

I just got his monitor today and let me tell you this thing is awesome. Not only is it fairly cheap but the colors on the monitors look sexy. For any gamer on a budget you wants a nice 144 hrtz monitor I would recommend this. I played 3 games after getting this just to test it out and got to GC in RL.

Added as a second monitor to be more efficient for work. Adjusts enough to compensate for being about 3 years newer than the other monitor for brightness, contrast, etc. Set about mid-level so lots of headroom for the future if the panels dim with age.

I purchased three of the G24c variants of these monitors in late November of 2017 and they checked all of the right boxes: 144hz, 1ms response time and the picture is great (for 1080p). I didnt really care that they were curved but after purchasing them and setting them up across my desk I found I like the effect. I wasnt looking for 4k or 1440 at the time and these are a solid 1080p display, when theyre working as expected. I wasnt initially able to take advantage of FreeSync as I was running a gtx1080 and it wasnt yet supported. After finally activating FreeSync, I was pleased with the performance. Unfortunately, I noticed in late 2018 that my monitors began having these lines that would come up from the bottom of the screen. (In the attached picture, the very bottom of the monitor is what this initially looked like) At first, it was just on my center monitor, but eventually two of the three monitors began having this same effect. I thought it may have been a graphics card or driver issue and dealt with that for a while and it seemed like after the monitor was on for 5 - 10 minutes it went away. After dealing with what was a nuisance at best for a year or so both monitors began to get progressively worse, to the point they are now where on boot the entire monitor is filled with this hybrid of yellow pixels that rapidly scan across the screen and whatever should actually be being drawn to the screen (see attached photo). I noticed the same type of pixel activity during the monitors boot sequence, confirming it is the screen itself and not a driver or graphics card related issue. Ive also changed the output from the graphics card display port to monitor and the monitors with the issue continued to have the issue regardless of where video was coming in from. When these lines scan across the screen its impossible to see mouse movement and if you do move a window from one of the bad screens to a good screen it stays stuck on the bad screen for a few seconds before clearing. I found a reddit thread that outlines a similar problem that users began having around the same time my issues initially started, they theorize it has something to do with poor soldering on the display port connection (hopefully this has been resolved on newer models). I reached out to MSI to see what could be done, but they instructed me to file an RMA (which I have to pay out of pocket to ship back to MSI) -- but after researching their policy, my monitors are out of warranty anyway and would not be repaired -- or would cost me out of pocket to be repaired. For now, unless I outright replace all three monitors, Ill keep using them. I re-arranged them so that the one monitor that doesnt (yet) have this issue is my center screen and the two that do have this issue look as pictured for 5 - 10 minutes on cold boot, then work normally -- but they are getting progressively worse and I expect that in time these monitors will fail completely. TLDR; 2/3 monitors are in partial failure and are anticipated to fail completely over time, the third one is still as good as the day I bought it. The picture quality when they are working is great (for 1080p) and the 144hz refresh rate has been great for frame sensitive gaming. After finally using FreeSync, Im not sure I could go back to a gaming screen without it. I really like the monitor, but if you do take a risk on these screens I suggest you RMA or return them at first sign of failure, as it will only continue to get worse.

This is the first time Ive ever purchased a monitor and Im very happy with what I got. The curved screen is easy on my eyes and there are ton of options for adjusting the colors and brightness to my liking. The only downside is it doesnt have an aux port or speakers but thats fine because I can still run speakers through my laptop which I bought the monitor for. Also setting it up took me like 3 minutes which is always a plus. I would definitely recommend this monitor and I may consider msi in the future for other gaming products.
