Dude - so wanted to buy from one of your affiliates; as it happens though, my local walmark had the MSI. If i get it DOA, i'd easily be able to exchange it same day. Next time.
Excellent review...After three years of using my MSI Optics MAG272CQR, which is by all accounts a subpar monitor, I'm looking for a 240Hz monitor. This monitor appears to be an excellent choice for my £350 budget. I should be more than happy with it because I've been happy with my MAG272CQR for playing Call of Duty on my PC.
I had this monitor on SRGB mode for the longest time because I just thought "accuracy = best." I took your advice to put it back on its "user" mode, and wow, the colors look a bit more vibrant! Guess it's that wide-color gamut! :D
This thing is insane for the value! I already have one, I’m willing on buying another for a dual monitor setup, but im also debating on getting a curved 1440p instead
Lovin it! I was so worried about how text would look and how my low rez movies would look and find i was worried for nothing! i do have nvidia's upscaling tech. I used this monitor right out the box and only turned down the brightness a bit. Lovin it! :)
Ive never seen a monitor this good for that price...crazy good Only issue i had was some dimming white to black background,but the ghosting is almost none existing when you set it up well wich is what matters to me the most,and the colors obviously
In looking all these IPS monitors, i can never find whether they use a traditional RGB subpixel layout or not. My assumption is that most do. How about your MSI here? RGB? Thanks to anyone here who may know.
Hey @TotallydubbedHD, I recently purchased this monitor, but I'm having trouble finding a boom arm that fits the backplate properly. Do you have any suggestions for a boom arm that can be adjusted to fit inside instead of being mounted by screw extender?
Hello and thanks for great review! Considering this versus slightly cheaper VA monitor (Gigabyte GS27QC) -- I want one for gaming, but somehow worry about ISP being "not that good at blacks" vs VA. Currently using old 1080*60-hz AMVA, though, so not really familiar with modern monitors' quality. I love good blacks, vibrant and juicy colors (VA?), yet ISP considered best for gaming due to lower ghosting and no black smearing... What would you suggest? I'm playing all kinds of games, with some FPS too, but not on really competitive level. Does better ergonomics, faster response and 240hz preferable on better colors and contrast, if I'm not hardcore esport player?
Do you plan on MSI MAG 275CQRXF review? Kinda interested it has a Rapid VA never heard of that before maybe it has better response times then older VA panels also it has KVM.
@@000-k1q4kI ended up going for KOORUI 27E3QK 1440p 240hz. Took a chance been great so far is the chepest 240hz IPS and the gaming brand company of KTC.
Great video! i have a question: I have only two options in my country, which are the ViewSonic XG2431 monitor and the AOC 24G2ZU, they are both very similar and I don't know which one to choose, What would you recommend me?
MSI G274QPX 27" 1 MS GTG 240 vs Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A 27" 1 ms QHD 260 hz Which one do you think is better and which one should I buy? You know, I also have color blindness.
thank you. I really liked the monitor but i have a question. I don't understand that much about ghosting so i was wondering if it's a big issue? also the it says the monitor is 1ms but you said it was more than that?
Great review mate! Your personal opinion MSI G274QPX for 360 EUR or AOC AG274QS for 550 EUR. Would I feel a considerable improvement by AOC or would it be only a very incremental increase?
Thanks! Well the MSI is great across the board, but the AOC's higher refresh rate makes it the better pick if you're a serious hardcore gamer - worth the extra, probably not. Is it something I'd get? Yes. I mean I daily the AOC lol

i have had both alieenware and msi,. if you have the extra money for the premium price of alienware i would go with a alienware. i ahve the 34" qdoled ultrawide and it is unreal man.

I bought the MSI G274QPX Monitor 3 months ago. There is 1 dead pixel on the left side of the monitor. Do you think I have any chance of changing the monitor?
I bi bought this monitor a few days ago but im thinking of changing it for the new Xiaomi GPro 27i because it is a mini LED panel with a similar price (180hz). What would you do?
@@TotallydubbedHD i got the monitor but im currently facing an issue, it seems that i cannot find a way to turn off my monitor when i walk away from pc, where is the turnoff button?
Yo, my guy, you've said that for competetive gaming u want to leave VRR off. However, this is only the case if you are playing CPU demanding games like CSGO but in GPU intensive games you are better off by either using VRR or capping your framerates so your GPU would not reach 100% utilization (85% more preferably) as this helps to reduce total latency of your PC and maitaining consistent frametimes. Ofcourse, there are solutions like AMD Anti-Lag and Nvidia Reflex, but in order to keep consistent frametimes and minimal total latency keeping your GPU not fully utilised at all times is the KING! This is the reason why Apex pros still turn down their graphics settings (in addition to reducing visual clutter). Not a critique, just my two cents after spending too much time on going deep the rabbit hole of system latency. Tweaking my system has consumed way more time than actually gaming recently :D
@@patrickgstirnah, in terms of arranging samples or at the very least sticking to their promise. It's all over the place, so much so I've half given up on Asus.
Maybe you could review 27" ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A? Nothing online that I can find and I can't decide between Samsung odyssey G7 and that one. Since it seems to have ELMB and 260 hz.
Great review! I am thinking buying this monitor. In where I live (Hong Kong) this monitor is the cheapest option for 1440p 240hz ips (around 315usd). As you said the response rate is not as impressive, only fine on fastest mode but the overshoot is a problem. I want to ask is there actually huge difference in 240hz gaming compare to the nearest price range monitor? If yes, would you recommend going down to 1440p 170hz monitors? Thank you!
There are a few that I'd recommend such as the Samsung G7 but otherwise I can't think of any that are as cheap and perform as well. As for going down to 170hz, that's dependent on you.
Hello i have a question about refresh compliance? is it even possible to get 100% can a monitor ever be true 240hz? and also is the percent in windows the same thing as refresh complaince like whatever amount of percent the refreshes are actually true to the amount of ms to the refresh rate but it's not even 240hz in the first place because of the refresh compliance or are they the same thing? I don't really understand. I am looking for a smooth fluid very low input lag monitor but don't know what to get now would the Benq zowie xl2546k or Samsung Odyssey g7 1440p 240hz fits my needs or are there better ones? Thanks
There are cases where a monitor can hit the full refresh rate compliance; you'll often find it in OLEDs for example. Nonetheless, it can be quite a minefield to look into it; I'd be happy with anything that hits over 70-75%. As for the BenQ vs Samsung, the BenQ will win in terms of fluidity (and it has a flat panel), but it's FHD and a TN panel, vs a much more competent 1440p VA panel. Depends on your priorities.
Can't say as I've not objectively tested older TN panels. However, generally, TNs are faster but the visual experience is often not worth the trade off.
I'm confused. Do you think the response time of this monitor is good or bad among similar IPS products ？I have a Dell g2524h 280Hz but has a response time of 7.8ms. Some media reviews suggest that this response time is equivalent to 140Hz. Does the high response time make high refresh rates useless？ thank you@@TotallydubbedHD
@@TotallydubbedHD I contacted support and was told that the usb c dp alt could not run QHD at max 240hz. I find it weird because the somewhat similar model with (msi mag274qrx) has the same usb c and stated on the specs sheet that it can run at max res and max refresh rate. Wish there was an option to test it out at a store prior to purchasing. Ty.
@TotallydubbedHD thanks for the response! Yeah never played fps games. Mostly AAA single player games and always watching anime and movies. I'm a little worried because I never tried a VA panel before.
@CloudyMcCloud00 honestly, I can't believe I missed the error, no one in 4 years has mentioned it to me either (incl manufacturers!). So thank you again :)
@@TotallydubbedHD Yep, totally missed that part :) So to be clear, to get 144hz(if my use case even needs it) - I'd have to connect using the HDMI 2.0 port? not even 2.1. Thanks budddy!
@@TotallydubbedHD i've watched many ips and va comparisons, and they both have some charming qualities that interest me, i play all games, like any type, fps, single player, story, horror, and watch movies, i generally game and watch, color is important but also the ratio, as well as low input lag and fast response time, i genuinely think that i can't go wrong with both and i'd prob be happy but i'm just too indecisive abt this, i'm a bit lost there
@@besxwq as per the review, I would suggest this MSI. But if you don't need 240hz, you might want to look elsewhere (like this mini led AOC): th-cam.com/video/SVjyCkNC6h0/w-d-xo.html
@@TotallydubbedHD thank you! one more thing that i have to say is idk if i wanna go for a 4k 120hz or 2k 240hz, i've got a rtx 4080s paired with a 7800x3d, i wanna go ultra graphics maybe w ray tracing, i could use dlss too, like i mentioned earlier i play every type of game and honestly i'm scared that it will struggle to run at 4k in the near future so yeah i was just wondering your opinions abt this
I've been trying to decide on a monitor. I need something that will be good for design, video, 3D and gaming across all genre. Current monitor is 13yr old viewsonic 27" 1080p 60hz. I have been looking at: Dell G3223D Dell G2724D This MSI in video. Any suggestion on which one to go for?
Yea and the one on the 32" Dell. Toss up between wanting color and hz really. As I dont have access to sitting infront of any of these it is difficult to decide which way to go, even more so because prices are much higher in South Africa. The msi is quite a bit more expensive than the Dell. On this one you say if not using for imaging then use other mode but the gamut values look better? Also dont have a reference point for if 32" ppi is going to be an issue since again cant sit in front of one. @@TotallydubbedHD
@@jpeg.jordaan I don't have an issue at 1440p 32", but of course the ppi will be lower than vs 27". Colour accuracy on this monitor is decent but not exceptional.
Don't get the dell. I did and sent it back. Colours were awfull. And im a graphic designer so colour is critical for me. Having said that tepanel was very well made and dell were great to deal with.
I will upgrade in the next month propably for 7800x3d and msi suprim 4090. I have my eyes in the sping of 2024 for this 4k oled msi 321urx. I dont know only the jump from 1080 xl2546 for now I have to 4k hiw it will be perform in the game.xd
I come from 15 years of samsung P2450H (260 $) and I always knew this monitor was very good. In the years I bought some monitor for office use 200 $ max and everyone was a pure shit. I just bought this MSI G274QPX and this is a better shit. I'm really disappointed by the saturated colors, the bluish blacks and a shadowy, dark image. For more it's not sharp, I have to set sharpness to 1 (0-5). Also it doesn't have a gamma regulation and I have to set "normal" night vision for less dark. 456 dollars LOL I will buy an other monitor Alienware AW2723DF to compare it with the MSI, and sent back one, or both and stay with the old samsung 🤣

I bought the MSI G274QPX Monitor 3 months ago. There is 1 dead pixel on the left side of the monitor. Do you think I have any chance of changing the monitor?
I'd send that back to MSI
@@TotallydubbedHD 3 months have passed. What is the warranty for this monitor? Do I have a chance to replace it now?
@@egeavcci better ask MSI. Should have one year warranty as a minimum
I bi bought this monitor a few days ago but im thinking of changing it for the new Xiaomi GPro 27i because it is a mini LED panel with a similar price (180hz). What would you do?
Never tried it and probably won't!
@ Well you should, it has very good characteristics for the price it has

Can you please help me? I have rx 7800xt will i have any problems using this monitor?
No issues
@@TotallydubbedHD i got the monitor but im currently facing an issue, it seems that i cannot find a way to turn off my monitor when i walk away from pc, where is the turnoff button?
@m-aw7342 aside from standby, you should be able to switch it off by long pressing the power button.
Are you able to enable DLDSR and set the monitor to 4K240hz + HDR? Thanks
Yo, my guy, you've said that for competetive gaming u want to leave VRR off. However, this is only the case if you are playing CPU demanding games like CSGO but in GPU intensive games you are better off by either using VRR or capping your framerates so your GPU would not reach 100% utilization (85% more preferably) as this helps to reduce total latency of your PC and maitaining consistent frametimes. Ofcourse, there are solutions like AMD Anti-Lag and Nvidia Reflex, but in order to keep consistent frametimes and minimal total latency keeping your GPU not fully utilised at all times is the KING! This is the reason why Apex pros still turn down their graphics settings (in addition to reducing visual clutter). Not a critique, just my two cents after spending too much time on going deep the rabbit hole of system latency. Tweaking my system has consumed way more time than actually gaming recently :D
No, I'm happy with what I said. As you're adding to the overall system latency by capping frames. More info in the description via my G-Sync guide.
Heyho do you plan to review the new ASUS VG249QL3A monitor?
No current plans, Asus UK PR is a bit shambolic.
@@TotallydubbedHD in terms of release dates? 😂
@@patrickgstirnah, in terms of arranging samples or at the very least sticking to their promise. It's all over the place, so much so I've half given up on Asus.
@@TotallydubbedHD hmm yea i've heard several bad things about asus lately but imo they make good monitors at least...
@@patrickgstir true
Maybe you could review 27" ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A? Nothing online that I can find and I can't decide between Samsung odyssey G7 and that one. Since it seems to have ELMB and 260 hz.
Unlikely that'll happen.
Great review! I am thinking buying this monitor. In where I live (Hong Kong) this monitor is the cheapest option for 1440p 240hz ips (around 315usd). As you said the response rate is not as impressive, only fine on fastest mode but the overshoot is a problem. I want to ask is there actually huge difference in 240hz gaming compare to the nearest price range monitor? If yes, would you recommend going down to 1440p 170hz monitors? Thank you!
There are a few that I'd recommend such as the Samsung G7 but otherwise I can't think of any that are as cheap and perform as well.
As for going down to 170hz, that's dependent on you.
@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for the advice, I think I will go to the marketplace to check out the monitor. See which one I like more👍🏾
@@jasonlau0395 enjoy!
Hello i have a question about refresh compliance? is it even possible to get 100% can a monitor ever be true 240hz? and also is the percent in windows the same thing as refresh complaince like whatever amount of percent the refreshes are actually true to the amount of ms to the refresh rate but it's not even 240hz in the first place because of the refresh compliance or are they the same thing? I don't really understand.
I am looking for a smooth fluid very low input lag monitor but don't know what to get now would the Benq zowie xl2546k or Samsung Odyssey g7 1440p 240hz fits my needs or are there better ones? Thanks
There are cases where a monitor can hit the full refresh rate compliance; you'll often find it in OLEDs for example. Nonetheless, it can be quite a minefield to look into it; I'd be happy with anything that hits over 70-75%.
As for the BenQ vs Samsung, the BenQ will win in terms of fluidity (and it has a flat panel), but it's FHD and a TN panel, vs a much more competent 1440p VA panel. Depends on your priorities.
If i am to understand correctly the monitor accepts a 4k signal @ 60 HZ and if so is there any benefit to this as this is a 1440p monitor
That's right, but it's 'fake' 4K as such down sampled to 1440p. So would suggest running its native resolution where possible.
MSI G274QPX response time better than some old tn monitor ? for example acer XF250Q 240HZ TN
Can't say as I've not objectively tested older TN panels. However, generally, TNs are faster but the visual experience is often not worth the trade off.
I'm confused. Do you think the response time of this monitor is good or bad among similar IPS products ？I have a Dell g2524h 280Hz but has a response time of 7.8ms. Some media reviews suggest that this response time is equivalent to 140Hz. Does the high response time make high refresh rates useless？ thank you@@TotallydubbedHD
@@foin1709 don't compare results with other people. I suggest you watch the review and listen for my comments?
How to choose AOC 25g3z 24g2z or MSI G274QPX ,i just want lower response time thankyou@@TotallydubbedHD
@@foin1709 different resolutions. Best do some research.
Hi there. Does the usb C dp alt support 1440p 240hz when connected to a laptop?
Thank you.
From memory, yes. Check the specs or contact MSI for more info.
@@TotallydubbedHD I contacted support and was told that the usb c dp alt could not run QHD at max 240hz. I find it weird because the somewhat similar model with (msi mag274qrx) has the same usb c and stated on the specs sheet that it can run at max res and max refresh rate. Wish there was an option to test it out at a store prior to purchasing. Ty.
@@Kaitochan18 ah darn, thanks for sharing!
This or the AOC Q27G3XMN. I mostly play single player games and loves to watch on my monitor.
The AOC if you're not a hardcore gamer
@TotallydubbedHD thanks for the response! Yeah never played fps games. Mostly AAA single player games and always watching anime and movies. I'm a little worried because I never tried a VA panel before.
@jopppsss well I'd suggest watching my review on it!
Just sent for one of these! Btw, re your award: it's spelt "certified"! 😁
Holy shit, I've never noticed; it's been years like that. Thank you so much, good eye!
@@TotallydubbedHD Haha, I'm a grammar Na$i! 👍
@CloudyMcCloud00 honestly, I can't believe I missed the error, no one in 4 years has mentioned it to me either (incl manufacturers!). So thank you again :)
@@TotallydubbedHD Very gracious!
I'm looking at MSI G274QPXDE. What is the meaning of "DE"?
Probably a region thing. But double check with the specs
It's the German or European region naming.
Hi,
Was wondering if you guys know how to disable the orange light on the monitor when it's on standby and PC not in used.
Does it have free sync
please do a review of ktc h24t09p or best 1080 p high refresh monitors
Never going to happen, sorry! As for high refresh rate FHD monitors, I've done quite a lot of them. Even recently did a 500hz panel.
what is the lamp that you use behind your monitor?
Haha honestly can't remember what it's called, but the sticker inside says: item number 2500719. 60W and 'Premium Housewares'.
What difference between this and mag274qrx??
Check the specs!
They have similar specifications
Does it better than aoc q27g4x and alienware aw2721d?
Different type of monitors! But the Dell is still a good one if you can find it
@TotallydubbedHD Yeah, I didn't watched price, I thought it same price as MSI, so do u know better monitors in same value as MSI?
@@Hayshniki183 no; did you watch the video?
@TotallydubbedHD yes, might be my language issues, thanks for answering
@@Hayshniki183 no worries, enjoy
Hi, can i change from the 240hz and set it to 144hz? Thanks
10:37, didn't watch the video? No idea why you would anyway, would be utterly silly.
@@TotallydubbedHD Yep, totally missed that part :) So to be clear, to get 144hz(if my use case even needs it) - I'd have to connect using the HDMI 2.0 port? not even 2.1. Thanks budddy!
@@KingdomUploader no you can use either port as shown on the video! But again, no idea why you would and it would hinder performance. Best of luck
@@TotallydubbedHD Just ordered it! I'm hoping my 1080P movies look okay on it. I'm sure it'll be fine at 240. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
@@KingdomUploader enjoy, and no worries.
Is it glossy?
no
hi! can u share the user settings in this monitor? thankyou i appreciate it
Left at default.
@@TotallydubbedHD no adjustment needed?
@@kevinmeydio2289 given it's not colour accurate in said mode, feel free to adjust it to whatever you find best.
We’re can I find the calibration settings you did use?
Didn't use any calibration settings, out of the box performance.
@@TotallydubbedHD did you not say, that you calibrate the colors ?
@@luckyluck1611 no.
Do you know if this monitor supports HDMI forum VRR on PS5?
If it doesn't have v2.1 it won't
would you consider this or samsung odyssey g7?
I'd prefer this due to its flat panel.
@@TotallydubbedHD i've watched many ips and va comparisons, and they both have some charming qualities that interest me, i play all games, like any type, fps, single player, story, horror, and watch movies, i generally game and watch, color is important but also the ratio, as well as low input lag and fast response time, i genuinely think that i can't go wrong with both and i'd prob be happy but i'm just too indecisive abt this, i'm a bit lost there
@@besxwq as per the review, I would suggest this MSI. But if you don't need 240hz, you might want to look elsewhere (like this mini led AOC): th-cam.com/video/SVjyCkNC6h0/w-d-xo.html
@@TotallydubbedHD thank you! one more thing that i have to say is idk if i wanna go for a 4k 120hz or 2k 240hz, i've got a rtx 4080s paired with a 7800x3d, i wanna go ultra graphics maybe w ray tracing, i could use dlss too, like i mentioned earlier i play every type of game and honestly i'm scared that it will struggle to run at 4k in the near future so yeah i was just wondering your opinions abt this
@@besxwq that's for you to decide and to look up GPU reviews. Personally I think 1440p is the sweet spot.

I've been trying to decide on a monitor. I need something that will be good for design, video, 3D and gaming across all genre. Current monitor is 13yr old viewsonic 27" 1080p 60hz.
I have been looking at:
Dell G3223D
Dell G2724D
This MSI in video.
Any suggestion on which one to go for?
Have you watched the video before asking this question?
Yea and the one on the 32" Dell. Toss up between wanting color and hz really. As I dont have access to sitting infront of any of these it is difficult to decide which way to go, even more so because prices are much higher in South Africa. The msi is quite a bit more expensive than the Dell.
On this one you say if not using for imaging then use other mode but the gamut values look better?
Also dont have a reference point for if 32" ppi is going to be an issue since again cant sit in front of one.
@@TotallydubbedHD
@@jpeg.jordaan I don't have an issue at 1440p 32", but of course the ppi will be lower than vs 27".
Colour accuracy on this monitor is decent but not exceptional.
Don't get the dell. I did and sent it back. Colours were awfull. And im a graphic designer so colour is critical for me. Having said that tepanel was very well made and dell were great to deal with.
Which monitor did you end up getting instead?@@wobble108
Does this monitor support amd free sync?
watch the review man
What 1440p hz monitor should i get if a got a 6950xt
Best looking up the GPU reviews and games you play
@@TotallydubbedHD on high settings it can run 180 FPS on 1440p so do you think I should get this monitor or a 170 hz monitor

What’s the best 240hz monitor under 200€
Go watch this: th-cam.com/video/eZYZpU4Tx6Y/w-d-xo.html
I come from 15 years of samsung P2450H (260 $) and I always knew this monitor was very good. In the years I bought some monitor for office use 200 $ max and everyone was a pure shit. I just bought this MSI G274QPX and this is a better shit. I'm really disappointed by the saturated colors, the bluish blacks and a shadowy, dark image. For more it's not sharp, I have to set sharpness to 1 (0-5). Also it doesn't have a gamma regulation and I have to set "normal" night vision for less dark. 456 dollars LOL I will buy an other monitor Alienware AW2723DF to compare it with the MSI, and sent back one, or both and stay with the old samsung 🤣
Hard to believe that it's "pure shit", but best of luck on your search!
minimum brightness is too high imo
What would you like it to be?
@TotallydubbedHD 60 nits or less. My eyes need it to be as low as possible.
@mikediezel0923 fair enough!
