MSI MAG342CQM 1500R Curvature 21:9 Aspect Ratio Narrow Bezel 1ms 3440 x 1440 (UWQHD) 144Hz Refresh Rate Tilt/Swivel/Height/Pivot Adjustment 34 AMD Freesync Gaming Curved Monitor, Black

Packaging and all looked just fine and dandy, carefully set it inside and started to unpack everything, nothing dropped, or was set down roughly, nor grabbed the monitor by its sides, assembly and transportation from the box to desk was about as good as you could get it. Plug the DP and power cord up, Power light comes on! Backlight comes on!... Wheres the rest?? Messed around with a HDMI cable (2 of them) into several different computers and even a Roku, and nothing changed outside of just a backlight, not even a OSD popped up during any of the attempts, granted I was bold to assume a monitor needed a signal to show its OSD, but benefit of the doubt, and with two to three hours of troubleshooting, nothing has changed. Amazing.

I love this monitor. Great setup, especially at the price point. Im giving it 4 stars because I have it desk mounted. It has a horrible mounting system vs my other monitors. Most monitors have a recessed square/rectangle. The mount fits flush within that. This one is circular and requires standoffs. Looks horrible, adds a point of failure. The mounting system was not well thought out. I would have bought more of these if not for that.

Overview/ Display - Let me first start off by saying this monitor is really one of the best things Ive seen in a while. Moving up from a Macbook pro-2015 15.4 to this display the difference is night and day. This screen is accurate when it comes to colors from what I can tell and it is bright, vivid, and best of all there is absolutely no backlight bleed on my panel or at least very minimal. At 34 inches this is massive, it dwarfs my laptop in comparison. But for productivity and media consumption it rocks. Im assuming gaming performance is good too BUT when Im able to test with an actual PC (currently inc a graphics card queue(-_-) ) I have yet to say. -Stand While Im not using the included stand it is heavy and seems to have great adjustability from what I can tell. The Menu- The menu is intuitive on this display, While it might not be super crazy like some Samsung monitors with literal joysticks it does have a streamlined menu that is easy to change any of the settings that come baked in. The LED ring on the back is a nice touch and has the option to turn it off. -Vesa mount- THIS DISPLAY WORKS WITH VESA, it comes with standoff screws to clear the back plastic and mounts securely to any wall or arm mount. I didnt know this at first but it does come with all the hardware needed to wall mount this. -Price For the price of $420 at the time of purchase, this monitor is outstanding and I highly recommend that anyone pick one up -Final thoughts While I cant say anything about gaming on this just yet I will come back and give my final thoughts on it in the next following months. AND TO NOTE: my computer is only outputting at 2560x1080 to this I cannot wait to see what this thing actually can do!!

its good everyone fr

Working on this monitor is fantastic. My software and game engine layout fit all on one screen. Huge development excels fit all in a single view. Honestly, the monitor has saved me a lot of hassle juggling my work setup. Nice and affordable, you will have an immersive overall experience with any content you play on this. I will warn you when watching movies you will have to adjust the resolution get the picture

I originally ordered this monitor because it checked all the boxes I was looking for! However, when I checked for dead pixels, there were a couple. Amazon sent me a replacement as a result, and when I checked the replacement for dead pixels, not only did the backlight go out within a week, but there was a hair stuck between the LCD and display.

Just absolutely fantastic and wont break the bank. Has about everything youd want on a gaming monitor. I absolutely love it. I dont have much else to say

Purchased this as a upgrade from a monitor from the stone ages... all I can say is Im amazed by the quality of the monitor and smoothness in gaming AND at a decent cost - compared to other competitors. Minor Gripe is the monitor stand doesnt go too high so I will be mounting in the near future.

Overall this is a beautiful monitor for gaming, got it today. However, I found it at a lower price same day of delivery on micro center for $379.99 and I figured amazon would price match no problem. Apparently Amazon DOES NOT PRICE MATCH, I would have never thought amazon would do that. What a disappointment, I would have never guessed amazon would be afraid of price competition. I already opened the box set it up and im sure amazon would just give me a hassle for trying to return it. Great monitor, terrible policy.

A few dead pixels about 6 months in. Also will lag a bit and cause cursor to jump on simple web searches. The thing looks amazing though, id buy it again even with those issues so far.
