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

Very good image quality, love the 144hz refresh rate, my one complaint is that the area where you plug in for power and display port is very tight, and if you have a cable with a big block where the connector is, you will struggle a little to plug it in.

Worked great for abt a year then started to give me these lines running accross the screen whenever i use 144hz for abt 3-7 min. After a while it goes away and its a normal monitor. Still very annoying when im ready to game but i have to wait for what seems like an eternity for it to warm up.

For the price its fine, but compared to a couple Dell monitors I had its quality was way lower. The blacks are not true black, at best a dark shade of gray. The color blue is not as sharp as compared to my other monitors as well. If this is the only monitor on your desk it would be just fine, but when you are able to compare it to others I have the say the quality of my 5 year old Dell displays is hands down better. Unfortunately it Hass to go back to Amazon. I think I will try the next price level up and see if the quality is any better.

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.

There are very few reviews for this monitor on the internet which is a shame because it really is a great monitor for the price. This monitor is one of the only 1080p, 144hz non-TN panel monitors out there. Most other 144hz non-TN panel monitors are 1440p or high resolution with much higher price-tags. Ive been using this monitor for 2.5 months and my thoughts are as follows. Pros: The monitor itself feels very well built and the monitor stand is a really solid high quality metal. The colour accuracy is quite pleasant straight out of the box and is definitely better than a TN panel. The 144hz refresh rate is great and is a big step up from 60hz. Bezels are also quite thin. Cons: Monitor stand only comes with tilt adjustment (cannot change height). Additional notes: The slight curvature of the monitor is slightly strange at first but you get used it quite quickly. Im now quite fond of it compared to flat monitors. Also works fine for competitive e-sports such as CS:GO. Panel is only 1080p which may be a drawback for some. Conclusion: If you want a 144hz monitor with good colour accuracy (VA panel here) and good refresh rates and you dont mind the 1080p then this is definitely the monitor for you.

I like the way it looks on my gaming setup, the viewpoints are amazing, I love the on screen sights they added, and for this price I couldnt beat it. The thing I would like is a little thicker stand because I feel like Im a break it off if I tilt it forward to put in a cord in the back of it

I was really torn between 144Hz & 1440p. My current graphics card (MSI GeForce 970 Gaming 4G) I felt could only handle one or the other. I took the advice of a friend & went with just 144Hz, picking this monitor because I know MSI puts out quality hardware. Im pleased with the results, loving the curved screen. Pros: Sturdy as hell, easy to put together, love the back panel cable management, no driver issues. Great response time. Cons: Dark picture even after adjustment, not a stunning upgrade from a 60Hz 1080p monitor, somewhat expensive.

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.

Wow! I got this as an amazon warehouse deal for $200 and what the heck was I thinking trying to spend another $100 for a 27 inch monitor; get this and you won’t regret it. Love the ergonomics, designs, and quality that comes with it. Make sure you have a good GPU to be able to fully use 144ghz functionality. Make sure you change it on your windows as well for this function. I highly recommend this monitor. I have no screen bleed or anything like that. Been loving playing Eacape from tarkov.

All around a good monitor, probably one of the best 144hz monitor you can get at this price range.
