General Features
Rapid IPS - See Every Moment with Clarity
A Rapid IPS display provides gamers with a fast 1 ms GTG response time, which will significantly reduce monitor blur occurrence. The clear image will certainly give you a competitive edge for precise decisions in fast-moving games.
Age Crossing Technological Breakthrough
The liquid crystal molecules of a Rapid IPS display rotate quickly, with the speed going up to 4x faster than normal liquid crystal molecules. The response time can be shortened to 1ms GTG (gray to gray) to help eliminate monitor blur and provide crystal clear images.
The World Right in Front of You
Quantum Dot technology lets you experience mesmerizing images bursting with a dazzling range of over one billion colors, each upscaled with clarity thanks to MSI's intelligent processor.
Abundant Colors, Realistic Images
Quantum dots are nanocrystals that are able to absorb light. When hit by light, they will give off a very precise color and provide realistic images. Enjoy every scene as if you are living in it with the most accurate color reproduction.
IPS Panel - This Is Color
This monitor is equipped with an IPS panel that produces no image distortion and minimum color shifts when viewed from different angles. Additionally, the IPS panel will offer clear images and instantly optimize screen color and brightness to ensure that you enjoy every scene at its best.
View Wider, Fight Better
This Optix series eSports gaming monitor features a WQHD panel that supports resolutions up to 2560 x 1440. This 16:9 panel allows gamers to examine bigger game scenes compared to other traditional FHD panels and put them ahead of other competitors.
165 Hz Refresh Rate and 1 ms (GtG) Response Time
Optix monitors are equipped with a 165 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms (GTG) response time panel which has the most benefit in fast-moving game genres such as first-person shooters, fighters, racing sims, real-time strategy, and sports. These types of games require very fast and precise movements, which a high refresh rate and fast response time monitor will put you ahead of your competition.
NVIDIA G-Sync
Take on any game without tearing, stuttering, flicker, or artifacts. G-SYNC compatible dynamically matches the refresh rate of the display to the frame rate of the GPU. Unlike other solutions, its unrestricted refresh rate supports from 0 Hz up to the maximum supported by the LCD panel, so you can count on exceptional performance in every game
Gaming OSD App 2.0
With the Gaming OSD app, it is very easy to setup your gaming monitor. Just use your keyboard and mouse to configure your monitor. The app even gives you hotkey options, so you can switch settings between different games with ease.
Tailored for a Good Fit
This MSI Optix Gaming monitor is built to make you as comfortable as possible while gaming. Through adjustments of tilting (-5 to 20°), lowering and raising (0 to 3.9"), swiveling (-75 to 75°), and pivoting (-90 to 90°), you can easily change the position of the monitor for maximum ergonomics and optimum viewing experiences.
HDR Ready
This Optix series gaming monitor is equipped with HDR technology which produces images with more details, a wide range of color, and appears more similar to what is seen by the human eye when compared to traditional monitors.
Night Vision Engaged
Whether your entire screen is dark, or just a few portions have heavy shadows, let the world's smart black tuner brighten your day by bringing out the fine details in dark areas.
Mystic Light - Personalize Your Gaming Rig
With MSI Mystic Light, the Optix MAG series gaming monitor lights provide a soft, ambient light that can easily be synced with any other Mystic Light-enabled gaming product. Select any of the colors from the palette using your smartphone or the Mystic Light App to match your system style to your taste. Or just turn on gaming echo, letting your monitor back light dance to music you play on the computer.
Universal USB Type-C Connection

Wide Color Gamut
The Optix series gaming monitors have more gamut coverage compared to general monitors. Gameplay colors and details will look more realistic and refined, pushing immersion to its limits.
Choose Your Gaming Style
MSI Optix series gaming monitors offer several modes to choose form. Gamers can choose the mode based on the type of game played to experience improved visual effects.
From Edge to Edge
With a super narrow bezel, enjoy immersion in the latest games with a multi-monitor 180° setup. Enjoy better continuity between screens while playing games, working, or general computing.
178° of Wide Viewing Angles
By having a large viewing angle, MSI gaming monitors have more leeway for placing your monitor in your setup without giving up the optimal viewing experience. Colors and details will stay sharp at more angles compared to other monitors with less viewing angles.
Anti-Flicker Technology
Generic monitor displays normally have a flicker-rate of about 200 times per second, which is unnoticeable to the naked eye, but can cause fatigue over time. MSI Anti-Flicker technology provides a very comfortable viewing experience by reducing the amount of flicker.
Blue Light Reduction
Optix monitors are optimized to produce less amount of blue light displayed by the monitor, so that you can game for longer periods of time without eye-fatigue.
