Exactly what I was looking for! I knew I wanted to upgrade to a curved monitor from my 24" BenQ but 32" monitors were too big for my setup and seating distance. I struggled to find a 27" curved monitor that had 144+hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and 1440p resolution. So when I came across this monitor it checked all the boxes for me. I was Semi-Pro in Counter-Strike and take my monitors very seriously and this monitor is absolutely perfect for what I wanted out of it. No dead pixels (my BenQ came with a dead pixel), the picture is great once you set up the color and font sizing and the curve is perfect to bring in the depth from the edges. The price wasn't bad either for what you get. I would recommend this monitor to anyone looking for a 27" curved gaming monitor. (Note: Make sure you have a graphics card that can run 2k resolution over 100 fps to get the full benefit of this monitor, cards like the RTX 20 series and RTX 30 series will do the job)

Absolutely amazing. The color, and quality of this monitor is just stunning. Because of the price being too good to be true, I thought this would be a flake, but I was way off. All of the options, from HDR to Ray Tracing mode using MSI's software really makes this monitor shine.

Monitors look great and are perfect for my setup. Extremely satisfied with the quality of these monitors! Love the slight curve, the RGB effect on the back, and the quality of the picture.
