MSI Optix MAG322CQR 2560X1440 LCD: High Dynamic Range, Adaptive Sync, 165Hz – Non Glare, Curved Display Review

I decided to test this monitor as a replacement for one of my Samsung CJG52 32 inch monitors. I'm doing a dual monitor mixed setup because one of them has some dust particles stuck between the backlight and the screen. Experience: Nausea Almost Vomiting Motion sickness Headache Image quality is ok, but definitely no better than what I've experienced on my Samsung monitors. Colors seem a little "off" with a yellow cast and even with color calibration for 3 hours I couldn't get enough close color

This monitor was my second, my other monitor was a 24.7" MSI monitor both attached to my Aorus 17.3" Gigabyte. I don't know what's wrong with this monitor, whether it's a slight but noticeable bend, size or whatever, but I just love this monitor. My only complaint is that the stand/bracket it sits on is very large, causing this monitor to sit very high above the desk and taking up most of the desk. I used to play and watch videos/movies/shows on my 75 inch flat screen but I think I prefer…

I love it. It is big. It's bold. It's good. It's alliteration, kids! Or no. Anyway, installation was pretty easy, a few twists here and there. However, I am not a great craftsman. But I like the curved screen, the bright colors, the great response time. I like it as a monitor for games and movies. Sometimes I'd rather watch this monitor than my TV. It was difficult to find the displayport setting, but then again, I'm an idiot. That's it. Before buying, I examined the display port input and came

For a gaming monitor, I find the image quality to be outstanding so far. I think the base of this monitor takes up a lot of space, but the legs are mostly narrow. So it's doable and reasonable, and I'm not sure the design could be better, especially with such a large screen. I'll tell when I started using it because the screen is so big it gives a good sense of immersion in the game, but I got a little dizzy spinning fast when moving or fighting . Moving the monitor a little further away from…

I really thought it was more dimensionless, but no. Part of the screen on the sides and top is fake and there are no pixels on it. The screen will not be that bright out of the box. You really need to play around with the settings and I have yet to see if the bosd gaming software will help me create profiles for editing, gaming and movies as three definitely need their own profiles. Includes web browsing for reading text and viewing documents. The RGB lighting can be controlled via MSI's Dragon

Great size and value, but be aware that you can't use HDR mode due to very noticeable black splotches in black and dark areas while gaming. You must use night vision mode in your monitor settings to minimize it and any frame rate below 100fps will show a lot of jitter as monitors drop in frequency so much that it is difficult to maintain refresh rate. In that case you should just save your money and get an ips panel and the panel shows great colors but most TN panels suffer from blurring issues

I had an rtx 3080 and then upgraded to an rtx 3090 ti and found that both cards in newer games when the refresh rate is set to 165 and gsync is enabled have occasional black bars that flicker. It's a 165Hz monitor with HDMI 2.0 and a 1.2 displayport, meaning its inputs are only rated for 1440p 144Hz, which sucks, lower-end games work fine, but anything that requires demands does a bit sore, but it's a good monitor nonetheless.

This is a great plug and play monitor, but there are certain things buyers should be aware of. First, monitor software is useful to a degree. I personally don't use it because it's easier for me to adjust the settings from the monitor itself. Second, I don't like that the monitor doesn't display dark colors well. As you can see from the photo, the blacks have a lot of LED backlighting, which can be a bit distracting. But overall still not a bad monitor for FPS or general use. Came with…

Today I'm on my second monitor, the first had a dead sub pixel and then Revain put it up for sale. I called them to find out the difference in price and they said it would be better to just return the first one as it has a defective sub-pixel and buy it again at a reduced price. So far this 1 shows no sign of dead pixels. It's a VA panel so you get ghosting and it can be a little annoying on some things but aside from the ghosting this panel is fast and has good response times. It's packed with

In game, the monitor works fine. When not playing games, the backlight seems to be visible and the image is washed out and grainy. I only had it for a year and ended up buying an LG OLED TV/Monitor. It was three times more expensive but it's amazing. I shouldn't have wanted to replace my previous monitor after 1 year. But the price is great for the features. My kids are happy with their new monitor ;)

This is a 2K monitor. Based on my experience over the past few weeks, I find the image amazing. The colors are real (or real enough for gaming). The quick refresh is noticeable even against the 140Hz background of my old monitor. I am very happy with this purchase. I definitely recommend it. I would buy this monitor again without hesitation.

Why don't you even dare to buy it? I am from Jamaica and received it here and it reached me in perfect condition. It was well packed. Oh by the way. mine came with a sturdy metal stand. The only negative I have is that it takes a few seconds to wake up from standby/sleep. So, as we would say, Jamaican. "The Best Since Sliced Bread" 😁

So I got one for Christmas and as soon as I installed it I fell in love with it. Technically it was perfect out of the box. No dead pixels, just 32 inches of pure bliss for me. Very easy installation, can be assembled. I'm sure you can get a wall adapter if you want. I immediately bought a second one. I want a third one but my wife is arguing with me about it 😫!

Love it! There are no problems with the monitor at all. No dead pixels. I adjusted a few settings in the menu to get the colors the way I wanted them. But I don't think it's the monitors. The game I play is very spirited when it comes to colors and things like that. As you can see from the picture this was a big update. Asus 24" 120Hz 1080p on it. Amazing update

Very happy with the product, I had to use the TV for a bit while assembling my computer but now I have this monitor and the quality is insanely good. I would recommend this monitor to anyone thinking of buying it.

I was very impressed with the picture and game quality and the slow response time, blah blah blah, but it all boils down to the fact that there is a leg length issue with this monitor. I keep hitting it with the mouse when I have a monitor. at the desired distance between me and the monitor. So I had to turn it at an angle to give my mouse more room, the legs on the stand are about 4 inches longer, that's what she said, but actually I said the same thing.

I spent some time looking at monitors and finally settled on 2 of them. They are big and look great in all the games I play. Refresh rate is good, resolution is good too. The menu is quite extensive compared to other monitors I've bought. There were no dead pixels, it has been working fine for several months. Definitely recommend. One of the best deals I've found for this amount of features and specs.

This monitor was already amazing, I've seen people compare 144hz to 165hz and this monitor don't know how but I felt a big difference (my previous monitor was 144hz and 1ms response time). I bought two of these, both work great, HDR is great, 1440p is great too, it's not that hard to adjust the monitor settings, just install the MSI OSD Monitor app.

For a 2k monitor with a 165 refresh rate, that's great. I love the curve and clean cable routing that is possible with the monitor and stand. Would recommend to anyone who doesn't want to take the cheapest route but doesn't want to spend a fortune either. Used with Xbox X, Macbook Pro and Alienware R11 with no problems.

Solid looking monitor. Easy to set up. Excellent quality. The only issue I had was that it came with a dead pixel in the middle and I thought I could live with that, but after a few gaming sessions I just decided that I should replace it, but it is relatively easy to replace it with the same monitor. and now i just enjoy it
