MSI Full HD Rapid-IPS 1ms 2560 x 1080 Ultra Wide 200Hz Refresh Rate HDR Ready G-Sync Compatible 30” Gaming Monitor (Optix MAG301RF)

mu bueno 10/10

This is a tldr review first impression since Ive not had it long. I bought direct from Amazon rather than 3rd party. I received all necessary items, including the power brick. So if youre worried buy from Amazon certified. The monitor impresses out of the box, feels fast, has pleasant color reproduction. No noticeable artifacts. Ips bleed was very good on my model, barely noticeable. Out of the box it might be crushing blacks which is odd for an ips, is probably fixable with some tweaking. Its worth noting I used 165hz 10 bit, which might be affecting things in normal 8 bit rgb range. Not worth doing since HDR support is an afterthought but its also doubtful this monitor can hold 200hz stable. That is just how it be with these ips screens. It is way better than normal FHD, the extra fov you get is fantastic. edit: Automatic aspect ratio is broken, so on games that dont scale to 16:9 even with GPU scaling enabled require you to go into the OSD. It is a missed opportunity that you cannot make a shortcut to aaspect ratio config. This monitor has poor gamma settings, night vision is the closest to a gamma setting, but it just overblooms things. AI Nightvision is just weird as well. Other than that the colors on this monitor are really, really good. It is fun to play with, and those negatives dont affect gameplay, but if youre like me it will eat at you slowly. Unfortunately there arent many good options in the 30in UW category (34in is too big for me)

The monitor arrived in perfect condition, zero dead pixels and no backlight bleed at all. The monitor adjusts up and down on the stand which is a very nice touch. Monitor itself is great with refresh rate and colors, it was simply missing one thing, the power cord. I had no way of powering it for 2-3 days until I found what type of power connector it used. Other than that, I had no problem with the monitor.

Wasnt exactly looking for a monitor that would knock your socks off. Really just wanted some extra real-estate to work with when Im working on projects at home. This monitor is one of the cheaper ultrawides I could find from a larger brand like MSI that also featured a high refresh rate screen. Overall Im very happy with what I payed for. Like I said, you definitely shouldnt expect something amazing. Theres much more expensive monitors that will probably fulfill all your wildest dreams. But if youre looking for something that works well and gets the job done I definitely recommend this one.

Excelente compra, llegó tristemente con un píxel aparentemente muerto. Sin embargo, le hice un poco de presión donde estaba el pixel y se ajustó, solo estaba mal conectado al parecer y si a alguien le sirve podría intentarlo. De resto es excelente, tiene freesync por lo que le puedes sacar provecho con gráficas amd o nvidia.

I guess not a lot of people out there are looking for a flat, ultrawide 1080p monitor because at under $300 this monitor is the most ridiculous value Ive come across. Its fully specd for esports gaming. 200hz, low response time, smaller screen size (30 vs standard 34), etc. Its only 1080p but that just means its easy to drive. Throughout the last several GPU generations 1440p and 4k gaming required constant upgrading to keep the framerates decent. That may be changed now due to the 4000 series, but staying at 1080p still has its merits unless youre forking out for the at least a 4080. You could take this monitor and get a 4070 ti and game on it for a decade with high settings. I cant believe this thing is under $300.

I use this for my Xbox series X, great size and has multiple adjustable levels for tilt and height. The base is pretty big in my opinion as Id prefer it had a sleeker stand. Says HDR ready but it doesnt register on the series X as HDR compatible. The monitor doesnt have a HDR on option either but when you see the display info for frame rate it shows HDR off. Maybe Im missing something but overall good monitor for the price.

Great monitor, and picture quality for the value. However after 16 days of use all of a sudden a stuck pixel line appeared. Luckily still within the window period where I can still return and exchange. My replacement monitor is on the way and hopefully do not have the same issue. Other than this I would give it five stars.

Ordered 10/28/21, sold and shipped by Amazon, and mine did come with a power adapter.

Awesome gaming display, first time using a wide screen and I really like it. MSI makes a quality product at a great price. High quality and functionality, 2 of my 3 monitors are now MSI and I will certainly replace my 3rd in the future with another MSI.
