About this product
The MSI Optix G271 is a 27-inch Full HD (1920x1080) gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time. It features AMD FreeSync for tear-free gameplay and a 16:9 aspect ratio. The design is black with minimal bezels. This monitor is suitable for competitive gaming and general use, offering HDMI and DisplayPort inputs.
Our take
The MSI Optix G271 is a solid budget 1080p gaming monitor. At 27 inches, the FHD resolution looks okay for gaming, but text isn't as sharp as on smaller screens. The 144Hz refresh rate makes motion feel fluid, and the 1ms response time is great for fast-paced shooters. AMD FreeSync works flawlessly with my graphics card. Colors are decent out of the box, but viewing angles could be better. It's a no-frills monitor—no built-in speakers, no USB hub. For $130, it's a fantastic value for competitive gaming. Just don't expect high pixel density or HDR performance.
