Review on Ultimate Gaming Experience with MSI Rapid IPS Optix MAG301RF: High Dynamic Range, HD, LED Monitor by Michael Dorsey

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Looks great but had some issues with it exiting full screen games.

Bought during the clearance sale hoping to finally get a decent ultrawide monitor. Overall the picture quality was great and I enjoyed playing games like Red Dead Redemption 2 on it. My 2 main problems were that I was playing some games in full screen, if I left a tab and then tried to go back there on the monitor it would gray out like trying to be recognized by my computer again and refused to do that show game. up again. Sometimes it forces me to restart the game. It's happened to many games, I just couldn't handle it anymore because I hate playing in windowed mode. Another, minor issue is that unlike other monitors on the market, when you turn off the monitor with the power button, the computer treats it as if it weren't plugged in at all, and all the windows along with the desktop icons on one force another monitor . (for example, when I want to sit back and watch YouTube on a monitor, but turn off a monitor to save power). For this reason I returned this monitor.
