🖥️ MSI Optix G27C Non-Glare LED Curved Monitor - Wide Screen 1920x1080P Review

This is my first review until I receive feedback on this product from a representative. When I enable free syncing in the AMD Windmill demo on this monitor, the entire image turns a blue tint. This is a big problem when it happens in games and unfortunately I can't be sure if it happens in games as I can't just toggle it on and off in games to see the difference right away. Other users have reported/verified this product and also mentioned this bluish cast. And most importantly for me, this…

Great monitor, stable 144hz, Samsung VA panel type is a massive improvement over a properly calibrated TN and I haven't bothered to correct the colors on it yet, the curve is sharp and it's difficult at times to flat screen to return. Unfortunately (though not due to this monitor's flaw) you have to use the displayport to access the free sync feature this monitor has, which is just as reliable once you turn it on. My only downside to this thing is that it doesn't have the ability to pass sound…

Look, I spent days looking for a gaming monitor and ended up buying a Samsung CF591. Brought it home and didn't like it. Did some more research and found out that my favorite gaming component supplier decided to take the plunge into monitors and ordered them straight away. Samsung took an hour after purchase. BEST monitor for the price anywhere! buttery smooth gameplay and an absolutely amazing unboxing experience. There are no speakers, but if you ever rely on speakers built into your monitor…

For a first MSI monitor, this is definitely an incredible piece of hardware. In terms of performance and price, it is unmatched by any other monitor. It's gotten some pretty negative reviews, but they're based on factory defects (dead pixels, etc.) that can happen with any product. The problem I've encountered the most is backlight bleeding at the top and bottom of the monitor. It might just be me, but in the 100+ hours I've already spent playing all the color changing games, I haven't noticed…

I've been using this monitor every day for almost a month. Colors are similar to those on an IPS panel, except for white which is slightly different, but if you want pure color accuracy, buy an IPS panel. The VA panel they use is phenomenal and the curved screen has a nice aesthetic and suits the curvature of my eye well. The only drawback of my monitor is the slight backlight blurring, which is why I only give it 4 instead of 5 stars. Backlight bleaching is only noticeable in very dark areas…

Nice monitor, I use it for gaming and as a secondary display for my 2017 MacBook Pro. The curved display offers plenty of space for streaming, gaming, editing and multitabbing. It only took a few minutes to set up, but do have a screwdriver handy. At first I didn't think that not having my own speakers wouldn't make a huge difference, but after having them for a month I'm honestly very embarrassed not to hear sound from what I'm watching but from instead my connected computer. This isn't a deal

PROS: Large, bright, beautiful monitor. Good stable stand. A curved screen is normal when playing games. It just looks and drips like a gaming monitor. 144 Hz is fine and smooth. The OSD controls are decent and easy enough to navigate. No real light bleed and no dead/stuck pixels. CONS: 1080p @ 27 inches is terrible and prevents what could be the crème de la crème of the crop monitor from reaching greatness. Colors look washed out, texts and images look a bit washed out. This is to be expected…

So far this is a great monitor but I have to give it a star because it ended up almost in the middle of the screen with a stuck pixel. However, this cannot be MSI's fault as the packaging the monitor came in allowed the monitor's box to slide into the larger box it came in. So it may have rolled over more during delivery than it should. The blue dot in the middle of the screen is something I can't stop at.

This monitor has a huge beautiful screen, great colors and design that comes with DP. However, there was an issue with stripes at the bottom of the monitor. Depending on the viewing angle, the edge may be invisible, but the viewing angle of this monitor is not very good. The edge was worse with the white background up. I found 2 dead pixels but it's hard to see them unless you're taking close-up shots on a 5 inch screen. In my opinion, a 27" monitor is a good match for 1440p, but the price for…

Moving from 24-inch TN 1080p to this one, the improvement in visual quality is very noticeable. I was confused for a while because I heard ad nauseam that 1080p at 27 inches was unbearable. I'm glad this doesn't apply to me. Maybe because I'm sitting more than 6 inches away from my monitor? Anyway, I give everything to do with the monitor itself 4.5 stars, but had to round down due to quality control. They sent me a broken DP cable and I have a dead pixel on my screen (as well as a few speck of

This monitor is definitely a step above other gaming monitors. The VA panel type is bright and has good viewing angles. Colors are decent and still better than a TN panel, but not really the best in contrast and color accuracy, especially when compared to another photo and video editing oriented. Either way, this is a great gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and fast response times. Personally, I use it for gaming and viewing content on the ASUS PB328. For the price I got, this monitor is

So I bought this product with high expectations as msi is a reputable company but this monitor and the support that comes with it from msi is terrible. Day 1 - Monitor worked great right out of the box, no issues. Day 2 – The monitor started producing a blue tint for all dark areas on the monitor which made it unusable when playing games or watching movies as the monitor had to be restarted to only fix the problem for a short time. Usually 20-40 minutes. Day 5. I still couldn't find a solution…

I got mine yesterday and it's great, the only thing I have is a stuck pixel bothering me, hopefully nobody else has this problem, but overall it will make any pc gamer happy.

No bluish or dead pixel issues. Runs on 7700K and GTX1070. Everything I've played looks amazing, especially triple-A games like BF1 and Ghost Recon Wildlands.

It's so cheap because it's a cheap, crappy monitor, screen cracking, dead pixels, and overall poor build quality. The large, obstructive stand is very annoying, especially when gaming, NOT compatible with every monitor stand, save your money and just buy a 4K monitor.

The monitor is great, looks good and is very bright but has many issues. I received it and started getting bluish greenish pixels and had to return it a second time for a replacement when it died a month later without getting any more msi products. Don't even get me started on MSI support, thank goodness Amazon treats their customers like customers.

One of the best purchases I've made in a long time. MSI has a great product at a great price. I've had the monitor for a few months now with no problems. Colors are good, free sync works. I have no complaints. Can't wait for new models to come out. I want to upgrade to 32 inch.

This is the third time this monitor has failed. I have been happy with this product until 6 months later and now I have a broken line about 2 inches wide on the right side of the screen that will not go away.

Easy to set up and use, 144Hz looks amazing. However, there are small backlight bleedings that are only really noticeable on a completely black screen. So I'm deducting a star.

I have this monitor and it was bad from the start. I've had screen tearing issues and am getting the same as previous reviews where the screen goes blue instead of black. Latency also deteriorated and aged like a fish.
