    Heavy light bleed during dark content. Way too distracting to keep. The curve as part of a dual screen setup really added depth which I'll miss.

    Love It! Having used flat screens in past, this is a better way to go, plus easier on your eyes too. Easy set up, packed well. Only negative for me is the close proximity of the power button to the settings buttons. Overall, great monitor

    This monitor looks amazing while gaming. You can notice the 4 ms. You will notice a ips glow when playing in a dark room but to be honest for me personally It's not a big deal but to others it might be a deal breaker.

    I absolutely adore this monitor. Great size without being too excessive, beautiful picture, and wonderful aesthetics for the monitor itself. It is a steal compared to other monitors in this price range.

    I love this monitor. The color is better than any monitor that I have previously had. I bought it since the price was so low and try the curved screen. MSI has never let me down, I love their products.

    If you only need 1080p, this is the one! DP, HDMI, and DVI inputs. Just don't try to use on DP MST hub, doesn't support it.

    I bought one of these monitors, power came on but the menu would not pop up. Could not select an input. Took it back and got another. Same problem. Tried to hook it up to a different computer, and it would not work. Called tech support, spent an hour on the phone with a tech. They finally told me to take this one back also.

    144hz yes but like many reviews. The backlight bleed is pretty bad and irritating.

    Pretty Solid Monitor

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    First off, I love the curved display. MSI used a Samsung panel in their first monitor which is a good choice. Be sure to turn on FreeSync for better frame rate, for some odd reason it is turned off by default. Their is a bit of LED bleed when the screen is black/dark, but this is a "curved gaming" monitor for ~ $300 which is to be expected. If the bleed is going to annoy you, buy a 4k or IPS panel (that is flat). Overall I am very satisfied. I hope the next model from MSI will support a higher resolution than 1080p.

    Excellent Gaming Curve Monitor

    Pros: - Beautiful picture quality - 144 Hz - Aesthetically pleasing all around. - Pair up with my gaming notebook, looks very very good - No dead or stuck pixels - No coil whine / noise, very good quality - Immersive curved Panel, looking for buying another 2 (total 3) to make impressive surround view gaming. - Multiple user modes make this monitor look good out of the box - FreeSync is definitely a plus Cons: - None so far

    MSI - Optix 27" LED Curved FHD FreeSync Monitor

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    You can't go wrong with buying a 144hz, 1080p, curved monitor for $250. The only issue and it's a minor one, is that any frequency above 60hz will glitch the screen if using a dvi connection.

    Horrible black light bleed

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The monitor has really bad backlight bleed compared to other monitors. It sounded great on paper, but it looks horrendous. It also had this odd issue when a game used shadows or clouds. If you played with those effects on, the pixels would go crazy. The shadows and clouds would turn a different color and appear very grainy. This did not happen on any other monitor and I used different cables and ports to test it out, same issue.
