About this product
The MSI Optix G273 is a 27-inch gaming monitor featuring an IPS LCD panel with 2560 x 1440 resolution. It offers a 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time, supporting both DisplayPort and HDMI inputs. With NVIDIA G-Sync compatibility, it reduces screen tearing. The 16:9 aspect ratio and 1000:1 contrast ratio deliver clear visuals. Priced at $119.00, it's an affordable option for high-refresh 1440p gaming.
Our take
For the price, the MSI Optix G273 is a steal. The 165Hz refresh rate is buttery smooth, and the IPS panel provides great color accuracy out of the box. I appreciate the G-Sync compatibility—it keeps gameplay tear-free. The 27-inch size is perfect for 1440p gaming, though the 1000:1 contrast ratio means blacks aren't as deep as VA panels. Build quality is solid, but the stand could be more adjustable. Overall, it's a fantastic budget choice for competitive gaming.
