The Qualilty
This product I would rate as a 10/10. I will admit though, I was a little suspicious before buying because of a relatively low price, but I bought a B450i motherboard from them awhile back and it hasnt failed me yet. So I decided to buy the monitor. It was a major upgrade from the one I had, in size, capibilty, hz, and picture quality. With the 1ms 144hz curved display with so many other options, right out of the box I noticed a HUGE difference. Also with the shipping, it was supposed to arrive Thursday, July 18th around 4; but it arrived Wednesday, July 17th around 6. With fast shipping times, I was able to use it before going to summer camp. But lets start with the settings. On this computer, on the back there is a red button. That button is able to move in 4 directions and click down. Using that button, there is a pop-up in the bottom right side of the screen which lets you change the brightness, adjust the hz, the Game Mode, the HDMI input (2 of them and a display port.), Theres also a crosshair changer, so if the game your playing doesnt have a crosshair, this monitor has the settings to have one! Next onto, the quality. The quality is very nice on it. Its a heavy plastic which has a feeling that it wont break. The base of the monitor is a heavy metal which is a very nice feature. There is also a smart headset feature on the left side which is super cool. It reacts like a button, If you push it, it will pop out and you can pull it out. If you push it again, it will go back into the monitor and blend in like it is the monitor. Like I stated earlier, its a really good monitor, and has a beautiful tone to it. Definitely one of the BEST cheaper alternatives to a 144hz curved monitor. This is what I would say, the best BANG for your BUCK. Thanks for reading, and if you have ANY questions, I will do my best to answer them!

One monitor to rule them all
I have been very pleased with this monitor so far, the crown jewel to my new gaming desktop. After pouring all my heart, soul, and bank account into computer hardware, I quickly realized that the old 1600x900 monitor up on my shelf did not do my computer justice. A gaming computer is only as good as its monitor. So I decided to splurge one more time because you get what you pay for. I went over to my local BestBuy to see for myself how I liked the screen size, curvature, resolution, and refresh rate. This monitor was everything I hoped for. I favor a one monitor setup over multiple displays, so the one big screen size is wonderful, especially if you plug a console in as well so you sit a little farther back from the screen. The curvature is actually really nice, it feels very natural and looks super cool haha. I decided that 1080p would suffice over 2k or 4k. The 2k model for this monitor is an extra $100 bucks, and I feel like unless your gaming build is literally top of the line, you might struggle to maintain 60fps at 1440p. I think 1080p looks good enough, and I'm happy to see GTA, Witcher 3, and many other heavy-hitters running at 60fps, while other, easier-to-run games go all the way up to 144hz with displayport connection. Plus the 1ms response time. Trust me, this is a good monitor, the only MSI product I own, and I am both impressed and satisfied. Like I said before, this is the crown jewel of my gaming setup.

Great Monitor
I found this product to be quite impressive. The picture is amazing. It was made in a very sleek simple matter. The curvature gives it a nice look. I highly recommend this monitor to any gamer or designer who is looking to upgrade. I mainly play games on my pc. ( Destiny, ARK, WoW, CoD, etc.) Just from the initial start up I can tell how clear and smooth the picture comes out.! Great product.Side note : my laptop is equipped with a IPS screen. IPS is obviously superior now-a-days, you can barley even tell a difference between my laptop and this monitor I have next to it now.

I didn't understand the other reviews but now I do. A lot of tuning required
I did a ton of research while looking for a new monitor. I have been using a 12 yr old "flat screen" 1080p 60Hz TV as my monitor since I built my first PC 12 yrs ago so I was excited to move to an actual monitor at 144hz. When I got it and tried to switch from HDMI to DP I ran into all sorts of issues as my GPU (RTX 2060) wouldn't output to the DP. I ended up giving up and using HDMI at 120Hz but the next morning when I turned the PC on with HDMI and DP plugged in it just defaulted to DP?What I didn't understand was everyone saying this wasn't a "plug and play" monitor but now I see. When you first plug this in it looks like garbage. Text is super blurry, colors are washed out and terrible, in general it looks really bad. It's not the best experience trying to navigate the osd menu to fix the settings since the options are spread out in different sub menus so I ended up downloading the MSI Gaming OSD app (you need to use the included USB cable plugged from monitor to PC) and using the app to adjust everything. The app allows you to use your mouse and has settings laid out much easier to find. Even with the app it still took a few hours of trial and error and combining the monitor settings, windows display settings and NVIDIA settings to get it to look decent. I still feel like it's not perfect but it's 1000x better than when I got it and it's wayyy better than my old TV.Gaming in 144Hz is amazing. All I have ever known is 60 Hz so when I fired up a game it was like unlocking a whole new world. I see what all the hype is about and I can never go back now. I'm not a huge fan of the curved panel but it's a slight curve so I'm sure I'll get used to it. One thing I didn't realize is there are no speakers built in so make sure you have another option if you don't plan on using headphones 100% of the time. There's a bunch of cross hairs you can have show up on the screen and other gaming options like that and some may find that stuff helpful. The build quality seems good, not amazing but not super cheap. I haven't seen any dead pixels so far (x my fingers) and it arrived with no damage.Overall it's can be a good monitor once you set it up properly. I got it "on sale" for $240 and so far I'm happy with it.All year: $250Cyber monday: Was $599- Now $240

Excellent product
I bought it some months ago and its been working out perfectly, would buy one again tbh, never thought it was gonna be this amazing, theres that lovely 1800R curve that makes it worth it + 144hz that bring out all the juice out of my fps games. Came with 1 HDMI + DP and when you buy check out the box throughly because it has an amazing MSI sticker thats kind of metallic so it looks nice.

Very good picture quality and performance.
This is a good step up for people looking to upgrade from a lower end 60hz monitor or looking for an affordable option to get into curved LED panels. Comes with a nice metal stand and is also VESA compatible. Headset Hanger is an interesting addition too.
