MSI - Optix 24" LED Curved FHD FreeSync Monitor - Black/red

MSI Mastered the model and execution of the computer. The slim and sleek design details the curvature which displays bright and vibrant colors and pictures. The monitor has a rapid display refresh which captures the fast movement through gaming and daily life. This product is perfect for gaming. The accessible ports in the back allow connection to consoles and pc's with ease. Also setting up the computer was the easiest I have ever done. MSI provides resources to allow you to set up your gaming setup. The color match between the black and deep red makes the monitor pop and be vibrant across your setup. The sleek and small stand allows you to have more space on your desk compared to other monitors. The screen is vast and feels like your experiencing the game in real life. The monitor also comes with a detachable case cover to the ports, which protects your monitor when not in use. Keyboards and mice look perfect with the monitor. The monitor has a sturdy but slim design which makes your monitor feel supported. The monitor is also lighter than most other products, which puts this product in the spotlight. The price of the product also sets it in the top of its competitors. The buttons on the bottom of the monitor is small but noticeable, allowing ease when turning the monitor off. One of my favorite designs of this product is the slim border surrounding the screen. The border doesn't take up space compared to most monitors. The brightness of the monitor is also very unique and vibrant. The screen is perfect for gaming. The only thing I would change is more mobility of rotation. Other than that the monitor is perfect and I will buy this product in the future. I recommend this product for intense gaming but also for casual use. This product is perfect!

I've had this monitor for just over a week now. This is my first time gaming in FPS above 60. It feels so smooth and swift. My only question is that the maximum hertz I can set it to is 120hz. Is this because of FreeSync? I'd like 144hz but I can't set it to 144hz.

It is one of the best monitors I have ever tried I recommend it a lot for video game lovers

I had the intention of replacing my current 60Hz IPS monitor with the Optix G24C so I could take advantage of my RX 470's Freesync capabilities. Unfortunately, the Optix's Freesync minimum is a rather high 90Hz. As capable as the RX 470 is, it can't maintain 90 frames per second at 1080p, high settings in Final Fantasy 14, the main game I play. I even tried using a program called Custom Resolution Utility to manually lower the minimum refresh rate, but anything under 80Hz would cause the screen to flicker. I returned this monitor since it wouldn't work as intended, but a curved 1080p/144Hz/VA monitor at $250 is still quite a bargain for someone who doesn't care about Freesync. The blacks and viewing angles were excellent. I watched Deathly Hallows while moving about cleaning my room and I could make out the darkest scenes easily. Color depth isn't as high though. While gaming, I did noticed slight artifacts and banding in Hitman 4's initial loading screen, neither of which occurred on my IPS monitor. Again, very slight and no where near as gratuitous as an older TN panel I occasionally use. Physically, the monitor is solidly built, especially the heavy metal stand and neck--no wobble whatsoever. No dead/stuck pixels either. Backlight bleed is also commendable. The individual LED's are noticeable from a distance (like five feet away) when blacks are displayed, but when at regular sitting distance the light disperses and reminds me of IPS glow. Really a shame the Freesync Range is such a lofty 90-144Hz. The monitor itself and the images it produces are absolutely stunning, and the curved screen makes media consumption and gaming so immersive. The blue/purple hazing of other Samsung based VA monitors isn't present either. It isn't what I'm looking for, but if Freesync isn't a concern and a 144hz VA panel sounds desirable, I have no problems recommending the G24C.

This gaming monitor is spectacular for it's price. The 144hz looks extremely smooth, especially with the low and responsive 1ms response time. AMD Freesync helps maintain every frame in fast moving media or game to look clean and line stuttering free. The monitors colors are highly accurate and the curved panel gives an extraordinary viewing perspective. Overall, this monitor is is great in each aspect, though, the only slight flaw is that its not designed to tilt and swerve side-to-side, and its height is also not adjustable.

If you're concerned about the curve don't be, you barely notice it after looking at it for a while. I did change out to a longer DP cable after I got it because the one that came with it wasn't quite long enough yet. I have a VESA arm mount but it looks like I need to get some sort of adapter to make it fit, haven't really looked into it too much yet.

Bought my son his first gaming monitor and he loves it couldn't beat it for the price.

Nice monitor looks nice n real n good quality for the price love it
