By having a large viewing angle, MSI gaming monitors has more leeway for placing your monitor in your setup without giving up the optimal viewing experience. Colors and details will stay sharp at more angles compared to other monitors with less viewing angles.

Optix monitors are optimized to produce less amount of blue light displayed by the monitor, so that you can game for longer periods of time without eye-fatigue.

Pros: - Excellent refresh rate at the price point - Although it does not say it, it does work with G-Sync - VESA compatibility - Great viewing angles and good color saturation for a gaming monitor (although it needs to be corrected since out the box settings are horrible). - Sturdy stand with good adjustability - Joystick and OSD are great - Best I/O in this price point (USB A/B/C, HDMI, DP) - Slim frame design with small edges - The headphone hanger is a nice touch - Macro key makes quick launching the OSD or whatever you choose a breeze which is a nice touch.
Cons: -Colors out of the box are not even acceptable. Colors are acceptable but don't think this is an image processing monitor. This is for gaming and if you go with a clear mentality you will be pleased. -HDR in this monitor is well nope. -Ghosting... Ahh yes, it's there. It's a VA panel people and you have to accept it. But it's not that bad. -No swivel in the stand, only tilt and height adjustment. -The modes in the monitor are not even worth it. User mode is the only mode you will ever use. -RGB in the back although a nice touch it's almost invisible. I've seen fireflies emit more light than that. -I would have loved if it had been a true frameless monitor at least in the sides, instead of the slim frame design. But I'll let it pass. If you are interested in these for a racing rig, you might want to look for a true frameless monitor instead.
Overall Review: If you are looking for a good gaming monitor with excellent refresh rate, freesync and g-sync compatible that won't break the bank in a 1080p format. This is your best bet. It is feature rich, it comes with an excellent OSD system to change everything using software and the image is very very decent for the price point. It's a monitor that you will not be disappointed on and it's good looking to boot. It won't break any records in image quality, it's not a real 1ms display by any chance and it's most definitely not an IPS quality display so you will see some light ghosting effects. But if you are looking for that type of performance, then you're barking at the wrong price point my friend. You can't have it all in this price point, but this one is darn close to the best compromise for the cash at hand.
