Pros and cons
According to our monitor expert
- The FreeSync technology prevents image stutter during gameplay if you have an AMD video card.
- The combination of the 1ms response time and 144Hz refresh rate lets you experience extremely smooth images.
- The curved design creates a panoramic effect for a more immersive gaming experience.
- This monitor doesn't have an IPS panel, so colors are blurry with a large viewing angle.
- This monitor has no built-in speakers to play music and hear the sound of your games.
Description
The MSI Optix MAG241C is a 24-inch gaming monitor. The curved 1500R screen makes you feel as though you're right in the middle of the game. This curved gaming monitor also has a VA panel. This produces deep black levels, which ensures that dark scenes in shooters especially will look extra beautiful. Thanks to 115% sRGB coverage, the screen has a wide color gamut If you're in the middle of a hectic shootout, the action will stay smooth thanks to the 144Hz refresh rate. You won't be bothered by ghosting anymore, thanks to the response time of 1ms. Thanks to FreeSync, you won't be bothered by screen tearing if you have an AMD video card. The Optix MAG241C has a high brightness and more connectors than its predecessor, the MAG24C. For example, you can connect your USB peripherals, or two sources like your laptop and PC, using HDMI.

It's a great monitor with a 144hz display. With the gaming osd you can put a timer on your screen or an aim assistant. The monitor also has a handy headphone holder built in. Highly recommended!
