MSI G274F (27-Inch 1080p Rapid IPS/180Hz/1ms/Standard Gamut/HDR Ready/Competitive Shooter Focus) Review
The G274F pairs a larger 27-inch screen with 1080p resolution and a 180Hz refresh rate, aimed at competitive shooter players who prioritize frame rate over pixel density at this screen size.
The Rapid IPS panel delivers a standard gamut without wide-color claims, positioned around gaming performance rather than color accuracy. 180Hz with a 1ms response time offers strong competitive gaming performance, and MSI's Gaming OSD app support allows software-level tuning of display settings. Against the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ3A also in this catalog, the G274F trades QHD resolution for 1080p at the same 27-inch size, prioritizing raw frame rate accessibility for lower-end graphics cards over ASUS's higher-resolution offering.
