1440p at 170Hz on a 27″ Rapid IPS panel, with a stand that adjusts height, swivel and pivot
Quick Specs
- 27″ Rapid IPS, 2560 x 1440 (WQHD)
- 170Hz refresh rate (via DisplayPort)
- 1 ms GtG response time
- Adaptive-Sync, HDR Ready
- Tilt, swivel, pivot and 130 mm height adjustment
The sweet spot for 27″ gaming
The MSI G272QPF pairs a 27″ screen with 2560 x 1440 resolution, which gives noticeably sharper text and game detail than 1080p at the same size without needing a top-end graphics card. Its Rapid IPS panel runs at up to 170Hz with a 1 ms GtG response time, and covers 92.83% DCI-P3 and 120.22% sRGB for rich, consistent colour across wide viewing angles. That makes it a good all-rounder for gamers who also work, edit or stream on the same desk, and Adaptive-Sync keeps motion smooth when frame rates vary.
Connection and setup notes
The full 170Hz is only available over DisplayPort, using DP overclocking; the two HDMI 2.0b ports top out at 144Hz at WQHD, which still suits consoles and a second PC. To hold high frame rates at 1440p you will want a capable mid-range or better GPU. Unlike many monitors at this level, the stand adjusts for tilt, swivel, pivot to portrait and 130 mm of height, and a 5-way joystick handles the menus. It runs from an external 20V adapter and has no speakers, only an earphone output.

Questions
Before you buy
What do I need to run it at its full refresh rate?
To reach 170Hz at 2560 x 1440 you need a graphics card able to output that mode, a cable that supports it, and the refresh rate selected in Windows display settings - monitors often default to 60Hz out of the box. The ports on this panel are listed under Specifications above.
What sort of panel is it?
It is Rapid IPS with a 1ms (GtG) response time. Panel type is the main thing that decides how a monitor looks off-centre and how it handles colour and contrast, so it is worth weighing against refresh rate rather than choosing on the headline number alone.
Can I wall-mount it or put it on an arm?
This is a 27.0 inch panel. Whether it takes a VESA mount, and at which spacing, is listed under Specifications - if a VESA size is shown there, any arm or bracket rated for that pattern and the monitor’s weight will fit. If you are not sure, send us the model of your arm and we will check.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
