MSI Full HD FreeSync Gaming Monitor 24 Curved non-Glare 1ms LED Wide Screen 1920 x 1080 144Hz Refresh Rate (Optix G24C)

Had this for 9 months and its working great. Switched from 60hz and I can really see the difference. The stand has a nice cutout for cable management.

This is the first time Ive ever purchased a monitor and Im very happy with what I got. The curved screen is easy on my eyes and there are ton of options for adjusting the colors and brightness to my liking. The only downside is it doesnt have an aux port or speakers but thats fine because I can still run speakers through my laptop which I bought the monitor for. Also setting it up took me like 3 minutes which is always a plus. I would definitely recommend this monitor and I may consider msi in the future for other gaming products.

My first 144hz Monitor and Curved at that, and I love this Monitor!!!! It’s breathtaking how accurate and eye catching the color is. I’ve improved at overwatch and even Rainbow 6 Siege. I have had so much fun with this monitor so far and it’s really immersive. Even has a little panel on the back for cable management. Highly recommended for anyone looking to get into gaming and wanting to get a curved monitor.

This was great for gaming while it lasted. Unfortunately my son cracked the led in this monitor and you can not buy replacement parts for it so instead of fixing it I am going to have to throw it away. Customer service told me that it would cost the same price to fix it as it would to purchase a new monitor. So i will buy a new monitor it just wont be another Msi brand.

Works as advertised for the most part. Overdrive flickers far too much to be useful though

This monitor, has very little info available online. As so I will share what I have learned. FreeSync, Depends on what your Refresh rate is set at. Radeon settings claims 30-60hz when the RR is at 60. at 120hz (HDMI MAX) its 90-120hz and at 144hz its 90-144hz. Ive had freesync disabled since the first time I played a game on them! I see really bad blinking any time its enabled and the game nears 100 or lower fps. If you can not push 120+ all day I wouldnt recommend this monitor for its freesync features. Other then that I love my monitors. I bought two to sit side my side. I did buy an extra Display Port cable in fear it might not come with one due to the conflicting answers on different sites about it. Although it did however come with a DP cable it was only about 3 feet long and would not reach the far monitor. Because I run an older card I only have one Display port on my gpu so my other monitor runs on HDMI at 120hz. One at 144hz and one at 120hz with a game stretched across both with freesync enabled (AND WORKING) with the game locked at 120fps it looks flawless can not tell the difference. I do recommend putting them in the FPS setting straight out of the box it will limit the blacks a bit but makes other colors pop! as well as increasing the contrast a bit..

I picked up two g24c and i was expecting them to be.. okay. but honestly im really blown away by them. for ~$200 these are a hell of a deal. no dead pixels on arrival. if youre sitting on the fence bc there are a couple reviews that make you unsure I strongly recommend just pulling the trigger c: some things to note with the g24c negative No on board speakers Not vesa mount ready out of the box (why im giving them the item 4 stars) you can buy an msi optix to vesa adapter for around $25 that does the trick. the ports in the back are a pain to work with. positive the picture is great responsive curve is super subtle the anti glare works pretty well. My desk has a window right behind me and from in the evening I really couldnt see half my screen. this monitor has really fixed that.

I purchased three of the G24c variants of these monitors in late November of 2017 and they checked all of the right boxes: 144hz, 1ms response time and the picture is great (for 1080p). I didnt really care that they were curved but after purchasing them and setting them up across my desk I found I like the effect. I wasnt looking for 4k or 1440 at the time and these are a solid 1080p display, when theyre working as expected. I wasnt initially able to take advantage of FreeSync as I was running a gtx1080 and it wasnt yet supported. After finally activating FreeSync, I was pleased with the performance. Unfortunately, I noticed in late 2018 that my monitors began having these lines that would come up from the bottom of the screen. (In the attached picture, the very bottom of the monitor is what this initially looked like) At first, it was just on my center monitor, but eventually two of the three monitors began having this same effect. I thought it may have been a graphics card or driver issue and dealt with that for a while and it seemed like after the monitor was on for 5 - 10 minutes it went away. After dealing with what was a nuisance at best for a year or so both monitors began to get progressively worse, to the point they are now where on boot the entire monitor is filled with this hybrid of yellow pixels that rapidly scan across the screen and whatever should actually be being drawn to the screen (see attached photo). I noticed the same type of pixel activity during the monitors boot sequence, confirming it is the screen itself and not a driver or graphics card related issue. Ive also changed the output from the graphics card display port to monitor and the monitors with the issue continued to have the issue regardless of where video was coming in from. When these lines scan across the screen its impossible to see mouse movement and if you do move a window from one of the bad screens to a good screen it stays stuck on the bad screen for a few seconds before clearing. I found a reddit thread that outlines a similar problem that users began having around the same time my issues initially started, they theorize it has something to do with poor soldering on the display port connection (hopefully this has been resolved on newer models). I reached out to MSI to see what could be done, but they instructed me to file an RMA (which I have to pay out of pocket to ship back to MSI) -- but after researching their policy, my monitors are out of warranty anyway and would not be repaired -- or would cost me out of pocket to be repaired. For now, unless I outright replace all three monitors, Ill keep using them. I re-arranged them so that the one monitor that doesnt (yet) have this issue is my center screen and the two that do have this issue look as pictured for 5 - 10 minutes on cold boot, then work normally -- but they are getting progressively worse and I expect that in time these monitors will fail completely. TLDR; 2/3 monitors are in partial failure and are anticipated to fail completely over time, the third one is still as good as the day I bought it. The picture quality when they are working is great (for 1080p) and the 144hz refresh rate has been great for frame sensitive gaming. After finally using FreeSync, Im not sure I could go back to a gaming screen without it. I really like the monitor, but if you do take a risk on these screens I suggest you RMA or return them at first sign of failure, as it will only continue to get worse.

i have one dead pixel but other than that it is amazing

Sleek look and great display.
