Know before you buy
Yes, the 120Hz refresh rate makes a tangible difference in daily tasks. Scrolling through long documents, browsing the web, and moving windows across the screen feels significantly smoother and more responsive compared to a standard 60Hz display.
It is well-suited for both. While designed for professionals, the 120Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and Adaptive Sync support provide a fluid, tear-free gaming experience that is more than capable for casual and competitive play.
Yes, it includes two 2W integrated speakers. They are sufficient for casual media consumption and standard video calls, though you may want external speakers or headphones for a more immersive audio experience.
Yes, it is VESA mount compatible with a 100mm x 100mm pattern. This allows you to easily attach it to a monitor arm or wall mount to save desk space.
This model features MSI's EyesErgo technology, which helps reduce eye strain during long working sessions. It combines an anti-flicker design with blue light reduction to keep your eyes comfortable throughout the day.
To ensure you get the full 120Hz refresh rate, you should use the DisplayPort 1.4a or HDMI 2.0 connection. Older cables or the VGA port may not support the higher refresh rate at the monitor's native resolution.
