MSI G272C 27 Inch FHD Curved Gaming Monitor – 1000R 1920 x
MSI G272C 27 Inch FHD Curved Gaming Monitor – 1000R 1920 x 1080 VA Panel, 170Hz / 1ms, FreeSync Premium – DP 1.2a, HDMI 2.0b CEC
Night Vision & HDMI CEC
MSI Night Vision, the smart black tuner, can enhance crucial details and provide a glimmer of light during the darkest hours.
HDMI CEC Profile Sync supports multiple devices (PC, Mac, console, mobile, or laptop) and can automatically detect device settings.
Less Blue Light
MSI monitors are optimized to produce less blue light, so that users view predominantly white backgrounds (search engines, online games, Windows apps) for longer periods of time without having to suffer unnecessary eye-strain.
Anti-Flicker Technology
MSI Anti-Flicker technology provides a superior viewing experience by reducing the amount of flicker, unlike generic monitors that typically display with a flicker-rate of about 200-times* per second.
*Although unnoticeable to the naked eye, this can cause fatigue over time.
Frameless Design
The monitor’s frame employs a super narrow bezel along the side edges, which is ideal for multi-monitor systems.
I/O Connectivity:
- DisplayPort 1.2a: 1920 x 1080 (170 Hz max. via DisplayPort overclocking)
- 2 x HDMI 2.0a: 1920 x 1080 (165 Hz max.)

I wasn’t sure before buying. I was concerned about both the colour quality (being used to oled p3) and the curved-ness.
Colour is good (not oled, but I don’t notice it unless they are side by side or I’m doing gfx work. Playing games, even dark ones, and its not noticeable).
Curvature was instantly better, and took about a week to get used to. Essentially anything you look at is perfectly shaped as though it was centre screen. This really helps when having windows side-by-side.
If I want write an essay, the words are not so clearly. In rest everything is looking good
The monitor is good, easy on the eyes even if you’re using it for extended periods of time. There is screen bleed on them and I have had to replace it and get a new one but after researching I’ve come to the conclusion that it is apparently an inherent problem with the curved screens. Maybe that’s not true for expensive ones but it is for this one.
The screen bleed isn’t too bad and it doesn’t hinder performance. I only notice it at completely dark
wallpapers with the lights completely off, not in regular usage.
fantastic monitor however my old pc let it down so i returned may get a new one for my new pc
Great monitor for the price, if you play fps games and need a good mid range 1440p this is a good place to start. A little backlight bleed but hardly noticeable, good picture with lots of settings to play with to find your preference.
Bought on the spur of the moment. There is nothing wrong with this item. Nice screen and really clear. It does take some getting used to. I have been using it for a couple of weeks. I still cannot see any benefit regarding the curved screeen wwhere usage is concerne.. Not sure if it would have been a wiser decision to opt for the norm. One good thing is the way it fits ino the corner where my PC is situated. I ccan pussh the unit closer to the wall. It does look quite classy. The stand is very wide. I don think it needs to cover so much area. Repeating myself…..This moitor does take a while to get used to.. really strange at first. I did consder returning deciding not to. Glad I didnt. I chose it…nothing wrong with it so kept it. Delivery quick as usual. If you are thinking of buying without seeing I suggest you see one first.
Wouldn’t buy this monitor full price but if you got it on sale like I did I highly reccomend i
The monitor is excellent but the Quick start guide is totally useless and the manufacturer is virtually impossible to contact for support . I have now assembled the screen so oif anyone wants help let me know
Best monitor iv ever purchased,takes gaming to a different level,thinking of purchasing anothe
So I ordered thinking I would get 1440p. But I was wrong. I got 4k !!!!! def not sent the wrong model as most specs were identical . You can run 1440p at 120 fps. And 4k at 60. Hdr really had an impact as well.
I got this for my son 21st and he love it, He had got myself a PS5 and was using a 1080p Monitor which was ok, But he says this monitor is so so good so much better. The monitor is well made and easy to put together. The only thing is make sure you have a screw drive Philips to screw to stand arm to the back of the monitor, Apart from that very good and great price.
I had it delivered on time and assembling it was very easy. No need for screw drivers and set up with my Dell laptop was quick and simple. Great picture quality and good screen size. Perfect for multiple screens. My coding and programming just got better!
Really good deal.
Gaming is excellent on this monitor, watching videos is also fantastic.
Everything shows super high quality, refresh rate is great at 170hz.
Super smooth and fluid. 10/10
Cant fault this MSI have got it right with this. I am going to buy two more if the offer of the price reduction is sent to me again .
A 599 monitor for 249 Euro . Make your own mind up its a no brainer.
I’ve been using the same monitors for 10 years until one went caput so I decided to upgrade. I play games and also use my pc for video production (as well as basic office stuff) and they’re brilliant for all. Would recommend 100%
Great monitor and the refresh rate is a dream. Buttery smooth display and fps and as it’s my first curved monitor, it’s very slick and also easy to assemble!
games played to test it include: phasmaphobia, PAYDAY 2, L4D2,BLACK OPS III ZOMBIES and dead by daylight. No tearing and solid 120fps.
I have always wanted a 1440p 165Hz monitor for so long and when I saw this especially with the reviews/features I just had to cop. It is so smooth, responsive and when I plugged it in the AMD software automatically detected a FreeSync monitor so it all works perfectly and honestly I used to have a 1080p 144hz monitor before with also a VA panel and this is so much better, the colours …just so good.
Clear and deep HDR effect screen. 1ms picture freshing frame and 165Hz ratio. Ideal for most of game play with zero headach. This product is good energy level efficient. Stand is strong but I recommend monitor arm. Blue eye save is working perfecty.
Excellent Monitor for Gaming & Home Office. I was happy with a 24″ monitor, before upgrading to a MSI Optix G27CQ4 Curved Gaming Monitor. While I knew the advantages of a bigger screen for gaming would be evident, I was not sure about working with documents, browsing, etc. No doubts about that now this monitor has improved greatly all functions.
There’s not much more I can say than it’s real value for money, easy to set up, no distortion, excellent graphics even though I am running a high spec computer it handles it very well, don’t have second thoughts if this is what you fancy despite its lower cost than some of its competitors it holds it ow
Great quality – the depth of colour is great. I’ve had no issues with functionality on any settings with my rtx3070.
My first ultra wide and Im in love with the extra space and ease of use. A lot of the extra functions are redundant once you have found the settings for you, but it’s always great to have the optio
I use this monitor for both design and playing and it is great. Rarely it turns off and after 2-3 seconds it turns back on. I probably contact support if this keeps happening but overall a great monitor.
You can barely tell that it’s curved – it does not impact your experience in any way as far as I can tell.
The only 2 things I would mention are:
– DP cable should be a little bit longer, it’s better to go longer than shorter, and I could barely connect the cable to the GPU. This will be different for everyone of course.
– The adjustable stand. Once again, everyone will have a different opinion but I would like for the stand to be adjustable when it comes to height. If you wanted to follow all of the guidance on how to position a screen (on the level with your eyes), you would need a bunch of books to bring it to that level.
Overall, I am very satisfied with the screen.
The manual for instructions is clear and concise. The monitor stand is really easy to set up.
I don’t own the monitor for a long time, but I can clearly recommend it.
