msi MPG274URF QD 27-inch 3840 x 2160 (UHD) Computer Monitor, 160Hz, Adaptive-Sync, HDMI, DisplayPort, VESA Mountable, Tilt, Height Adjustable, Speaker, 0.5ms, Black

It is a pleasure to see the image of this monitor. Coming from a 27-inch 1440p monitor, I can't go back. However, I use the latter as a second screen, and the difference is huge. The definition and colors are simply amazing. No ghosting, no dead pixels, no light bleeding, no burn-in fear. I finally have a monitor with everything I've ever wanted. I wanted a monitor like this when it was high end, but finally I can buy it when it is already part of budget monitors. I can't be more satisfied with the purchase.

This is probably the best priced 4K gaming monitor at sub-$450. At 27” almost all monitor arms fit it, so don’t even need to use the stand. It’s also a 4K resolution 27” display which is harder to come buy since most are 4K 32”. Personally, I like the 27” size more since bigger isn’t always better. 32” strains my eyes for some reason. This model also has Tyoe-C with power delivery, so when I’m using my Mac for work, I can actually charge and display as a second monitor, or sometimes I just charge my phone too. Also since it’s a Quantum Dot display, it looks amazing in terms of color accuracy. It might not be the same as Quantum Dot OLED, but it’s honestly hard to tell unless you’re looking at really dark colors.

The monitor only comes with a HDMI cable and NOT a Display Cable even though it has the port. Contacted MSI and he stated that they are not expensive and I should buy one. For a monitor costing over $400, he should have sent the inexpensive cable. Otherwise, the monitor is fine.

I really wanted to love this monitor without reservations - and in many ways, I do. The setup was painless, the build quality feels good, and the dual-device support is genuinely useful. Once it's powered on, the panel is a joy to look at: sharp, vibrant, and impressively accurate in DCI-P3/Display P3 mode. Motion is buttery smooth at 144Hz, and everyday use is fantastic. But here's the part that left me disappointed: despite being advertised as a 4K 160Hz display, this monitor simply cannot reach 160Hz under any real-world scenario. The ports it ships with - DisplayPort 1.4a, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C DP Alt - none of which can provide enough bandwidth to drive 4K at 160Hz. The panel itself may be capable of that refresh rate, but the actual inputs make it impossible to achieve. The best you can get is 4K/144Hz, which is stilll great, but not what's advertised. If you're happy with 4K/144Hz - and honestly, it looks fantastic - this is a wonderful monitor with excellent color performance and smooth motion. Just don't expect to ever see 160Hz, because it's not going to happen with the ports MSI chose to include.

I use this as my main monitor that switches between work and gaming. 4K resolution is important for work, and high refresh rate is important for gaming. KVM switch feature lets me switch between my gaming PC and work laptop seamlessly, and the USB-C DP port allows charging my laptop as well, reducing clutter on my desk. I was debating between this and a similar ASUS monitor with dual-mode, but while the picture quality areas are similar, the KVM and USB-C features won me over.

I needed another monitor for my setup and it delivers on everything I needed. The color accuracy is better than I would've have thought. The brightness makes the colors pop out. Also, the refresh rate and resolution makes gaming on console and pc viable.

For me is the adjustable stand for the screen to rise/lower and tilt up/down on my gaming desk.

I may just be an idiot so take my review as you will. I hate this monitor. In fact, this was my first delve into the 4k monitor space and I am pretty sure I'll never go 4k again because of this monitor. I bought this monitor in 2024, and I should have just returned it because the problems didn't just go away. If your game is dark, good luck seeing anything cause you won't. I constantly have to fiddle with settings just to be able to see things clearly when its a little dark, even when cranking up a games brightness. It flickers when it goes to sleep, and shows the "no connection" little thing in the middle of the screen sometimes it might even do this when the PC is even off! So I get to come back to that burned into the screen for the first few minutes. Oh it also takes like a solid 5 - 10 seconds just to wake up or turn on when the the pc starts, which confuses the hell out of my other monitor, and my tower. When it wakes up UI on apps is usually all levels of broken, and I have to resize windows or close and open apps again to fix it. Sometimes it just turns off my animated wallpapers and switches to a black background for some reason, who knows! Hey, maybe its my system, I am rocking a 30 series for whatever that's worth, but this thing sucks. 4k in general kinda just feels like it sucks, so I'll be staying away.

El mejor monitor que he tenido

Ya casi no juego como antes pero lo poco que lo uso me ha encantado. Lo tengo para el xbox series X, quiero una PC para sacarle mejor provecho. Lo único malo que no trae bocinas o sería perfecto.

Por un momento me preocupe por el tema de los aranceles pero el vendedor se encargó de todo, sólo tuve que esperar. Siempre hubo buena comunicación.

Excelente monitor, calibración de color bastante aceptable. Me parece un buen punto medio entre diseño y gaming.
