The sensible middle of MSI's 27-inch range: 1440p sharpness and 200Hz on one panel, with G-Sync and FreeSync certification on both sides.
Quick Specs
- 27" Rapid IPS panel, flat
- 2560 x 1440 (WQHD) at 200Hz
- 0.5ms GtG (min) response
- NVIDIA G-Sync Compatible and AMD FreeSync Premium
- 1x DisplayPort 1.4a, 2x HDMI 2.0b
Use DisplayPort, not HDMI
This is the one setup detail that catches people out. The DisplayPort 1.4a input carries the full 2560 x 1440 at 200Hz, but the two HDMI 2.0b inputs top out at 1440p and 144Hz because HDMI 2.0 does not have the bandwidth for more. MSI ships a DisplayPort cable in the box for exactly this reason, so use it for your PC and keep HDMI for a console. A PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X will run at 1440p and 120Hz here, which is as much as those consoles output anyway.
1440p is where a 27-inch panel belongs
At 2560 x 1440 a 27-inch screen lands around 109 pixels per inch, which is sharp enough that text stops looking soft and you get real working room next to a browser. It is also the resolution where a mid-range graphics card can still chase high frame rates, unlike 4K. Rapid IPS keeps viewing angles wide and transitions fast, contrast is 1200:1 which is slightly better than most IPS panels but still well short of a VA screen in a dark room, and colour coverage is 115% sRGB with 90% DCI-P3. HDR is HDR Ready only at 300 nits.
