Pros & Cons
Pros
Response times are very fast with no visible overshoot (overdrive set to 'fast' which is the best setting) except at low refresh rates like 60hz (where it still isn't too noticeable) this monitor has a 1ms response time and 200hz panel. At 165hz and g... Read More
This monitor gives you the sharpness of 1440p while still giving you high refresh rate. It isn't really a 4k display and can't physically show such fine details, but the pixel grid is still sufficient when fed a well-rendered image.
Clean and budget friendly. Helps my setup look fancier, more clean. Excellent colour accuracy (especially after calibration) the current £140 discount certainly sweetens the deal.
I only wish it could be brighter for better hdr content. Double hdmi + *, wfhd, and high refresh rates are the highlights, a splash of rgb on the back and the pair of usb ports are a bonus.
Cons
Backlight bleed is instantly noticeable. Visible pixel defects with undead pixel utility. It is very frustrating to pull the trigger on such an expensive display only for it to have a defect.

The monitor has surpassed expectations and i'm really pleased with the purchase.
Only thing about it is its colours but you can bump it up with the nvidia control panel
The image quality in the msi lovely but the most amazing thing is the colours.
Packaging/appearance
I didn’t have a faulty monitor unlike some reviews on here, mine had no dead pixels and was in flawless packaging.
Coming from an ips 144hz 1440p monitor and the upgrade isn't that much noticeable compared from the jump to 60hz to 144hz but y... Read More
Competitiveness
I highly recommend this monitor for the 27 1440p market as i have seen it on such a great price for months now.
But i didn't own a ps5 at the time so i run my ps4 on it at 60hz and tbf it made the ps4 look alot better than my qled tv.
I didn’t want a 1440p monitor as i am perfectly happy with 1080p, and i did not want a monitor bigger than 30inches.
I already had a 144hz 1440p monitor but it was cheap and dull.

You will have to spend a lot of time setting up colours on the monitor and it will still feel a bit off
