Fantastic for the price

All in all great monitors for a small budget. I have two of these matching and fit well on my table. They're a little heavier, so get a mount that can support 20 pounds per monitor. The screen resolution is easy to change and you can change the frame rate in the settings. This is $40 cheaper than buying it from MSI's official website. Highly recommended for 2000 series graphics cards as 4K usually requires a more powerful card.

DEAD PIXEL in my review

I just got this monitor a day ago. Installed and enjoy playing my favorite games. 165Hz on a 27-inch screen is great until you realize there's a dead pixel in the center right of the screen. Return this ASAP and you'll probably never buy an MSI monitor again. It would be a truly amazing contraption if it weren't defective. But apparently it's pretty common. Such a shame.

Buy your own DP cable

First 3 stars only because of the inconvenience. If you buy this monitor, make sure you also buy a compatible 165Hz HDR 1440 display port. The one that came with the monitor (I didn't expect it to be included) didn't support high refresh rates or HDR. This left me frustrated for about an hour trying to figure out why the monitor was stuck at 60Hz, no HDR no matter what I did. I tested another cable I had and it worked straight away. Aside from this issue that wasted my time, I would rate this…
