MSI G271CQP E2, 27 Gaming Monitor, 2560 x 1440 (QHD), VA, 170Hz, FreeSync Premium, HDMI, Displayport, Tilt, Swivel, Height Adjustable,Pivot

My fiance loves it hes a gamer and streams and this was perfect just another monitor added to the others. The pic quality is really clear and he loves the fact that its curved

The refresh rate only goes up to 60hz unless you have it on 1080p.... why pay more for 1440p if you cant use it and even on 1080p it only gets 120hz

I wanted to get a monitor to complement my Dell S2716dg, since I cant find that one anywhere anymore. Bought this from Best Buy and I mean, it looks great watching videos (generally) or looking at photos and playing strategy games. Stand is very lightweight and feels like its about to fall apart. Ghosting is so awful. Playing Rocket League was terrible compared to a typical TN monitor. The motion blur was terrible. Imagine playing a game with VA monitors, and normally you turn motion blur off, except your monitor keeps it always on. CoD wasnt great, but was better. Even after I updated to most recent firmware. Will most likely be returning this monitor to Best Buy. Looking for an IPS or another TN monitor simply because when Im playing Skyirm, Horizon: Zero Dawn, or any other type of RPG/First Person game, its terribly sickening. I dont believe for a minute that its 1ms response time compared to my Dell S2716dg.

MSI greatly confused me on my hunt for a new monitor around the $300 range. They had Full HD and 2560x1440p in the same title, and they appeared to even have duplicate models on the site. I ordered this monitor early this week and was pleased to see it had actually arrived today in basically perfect condition. The monitor is identified as 165hz and it definitely feels like it. I can feel the difference between my old 1080p monitor and this 1440p panel right away. Honestly for ~300 dollars this will be the best to get. The curved display is not dramatic and is not something that will disrupt the way you compute. Looking forward to what I do with this monitor!

I had a MSI monitor that was exactly the same size shape and design, but in 1080p, when I got this one I was disappointed at the lack of USB ports on it compared to the old one. I guess there is beauty in simplicity. The colors looked quite a bit different from my old monitor to my new one, much softer and less defined it took a good deal of meddling to get it to a quality I felt good about, maybe it was the jump in resolution that made it seem that way, but now that everything is set I like it just fine, paired with a 6900xt it’s a nice looking setup, the one thing about MSI monitors I don’t like is that the stand isn’t very tall. But I like the look and quality of it.

Great resolution and color for the money, but a couple of dead pixels near the edges. Not very noticeable, but they exist.

Currently using this monitor on my setup and I love it. 1440p looks great and response times are great. No HDR. And the monitor doesn’t adjust height vertically. But still a beast.
