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

I like the design and clean look of this monitor. It is affordable with that specs. Only wish it comes with speakers.

Its good but there was a green pixel in the middle of the screen, and I kept thinking that someone with a laser is behind me in Tarkov.

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)

Pros: -Monitor looks great Cons:- No Power Adapter Overall Review: The last thing I needed was the monitor so you can imagine my excitement when I got off work and headed home to unwrap this beauty and fire up my new desktop as well. Opened the box up and assembled the base and everything, got the cables and headed to my desk and I noticed it. NO POWER ADAPTER Contacted amazon who said I need to contact the manufacturer. Contacted MSI and they didnt understand what I was asking for, after a brief phone call, they sent me a power adapter. Haven’t received it yet. MSI is a great company overall, but they really dropped the ball not including the power adapter with the monitor in the box...

mu bueno 10/10

Bought this screen for my brothers birthday and he was blown away. Hes a beginner in PC gaming and this is a great screen.

Bought two of these monitors for me and my brother and both of them came packaged very nicely. The monitors themselves are fantastic as the colors on these are amazing and the IPS panel really shows the beauty of this monitor. Its also not curved but many curved monitors are VA and I really wanted an IPS panel widescreen monitor. It also came with power adapters so Im glad I got lucky. EDIT: After a couple of months, one of the monitor is starting to have flicker issues. I replaced the cable and tried it on different GPUs and I am positive that the monitor is now defective. MSI warranty for monitors is also mediocre as I would have to ship the monitor back and I do not have a box big enough to send it to them with. Wish they had an option to visit a near by repair.

I bought it off of the warehouse. Expected cosmetic damages and the label mentionned some hygienic concerns. When I opened the box I expected flagrant scratches or damages. Plus coffee stains perhaps. The screen came in a brand new wrap, OG or not it was clean. Ive been using it for two weeks now and no flickering, no dead pixels, no nothing. Works perfectly. The image is wide and clear. My sole problem with it is that I havent been able to find the graphics settings that I find most pleasing. Meaning that I find the screen either too bright or too dark. Im in a dark environnement. Also the joystick for the menu works awesomely. Its really a marvelous feature.

Very nice monitor.

This monitor hit all the right spots for me. Ultrawide with WFHD resolution and a 200Hz refresh rate to boot. Only draw back is that the HDR is not VESA certified and thats its only 300 nit max brightness, but so far that hasnt been an issue for me at all, with its non-glossy screen.
