Optix MAG342CQR

I've got this one and I've been pretty happy with it. Especially for the price. https://www.walmart.com/ip/MSI-Optix-OPTIXMAG342CQR-34-UW-QHD-Curved-Screen-LED-Gaming-LCD-Monitor-21-9/645944608

Yeah, I paid about $220 for this back in September. I've been very happy with it given the price.

I use it primarily as a work display and have no issues that I can recall doing all manner of standard office work. Pretty much the clarity I expect of a 1440p monitor.

No USB C. Just one HDMI and two display port.

Budget Ultrawide that actually looks decent: [Amazon.com: MSI Optix MAG342CQR 1500R Curvature 21:9 Aspect Ratio Narrow Bezel 1ms 3440 x 1440 (UWQHD) 144Hz Refresh Rate Tilt/Swivel/Height/Pivot Adjustment 34" AMD Freesync Gaming Curved Monitor, Black : Electronics](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08S8W3MMM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExaGNOazZhME9VMXZzN0JsawEegqhAUEBQvw_zRLhnmOEvDwfoj2F4SGg6x-QIOFCpuRskSSOftWs27TdMH7E_aem_I_x96EqlsWxLgCk0Fl3XHw)

Yeah, it still looks decent for the price tho, the price of this monitor should allow him to grab a 5070TI, The only complaint I've seen from reviewers was its peak brightness.

MSI Mag only. Only 1 stock is left on Amazon. I hope nobody orders till evening.

Mine also is fine . Did you check the pbp/pip functions? HDR ? Etc

I went with the MSI Optix just because it was on sale for $189. I have no issues with this monitor for sim racing and FPS gaming. [https://a.co/d/g8iNmlR](https://a.co/d/g8iNmlR) They are mostly all the same in this range, just go by the price, refresh rate, brand, and whether you want FreeSync or G-Sync or not.

I was all in on a 49” but ended up with two 34” monitors. MSI MPG 341CQPX QD-OLED - the main monitor I game and watch stuff on. & MSI Optix MAG342CQR VA - secondary monitor for all other stuff while gaming or watching. I just have them next to eachother but my mount allows me to freely move them both around, so I could make either vertical with ease. Edit: I run my main monitor @240hz and the secondary monitor @ 60hz.

My tick is to strongly favor VA over IPS. I game a lot in darker environments, as well as watch shows and the occsional movie. VAs don't ghost, at least anything decent this side of lets say 2015-2020I bought an MSI 343CQR in 2021 during Covid. I did my research, and that panel was JUST barely out on the market, with almost no reviews to go by. When I set it up, tomshardware came out with a review stating its mostly pros with basically no cons, and if you adjust the colour, you're almost certainly making it worse, since the factory calibration is surprisingly perfect. Also, IPS still have a lot of glow in darker environments. VA barely has any in comparison and still has very decent blacks. Not OLED levels, but I can leave my va panel on all day, and there is 0 burn in.

Honestly mine is 1000r, and you want to be aligned dead center, so viewing angle isn't really not an angle. I have mouted it to my wall, and am always arm's length away. Palm straight out, not reaching, i can just barely touch it, which gives decent immersion and my eyes never get fatigued looking at it.

Que tal el ghosting? Yo me compré uno similar (MSI 34" VA 3440x1440 144Hz) y el ghosting que tiene eso es tremendo. Para ver películas está bien pero para juegos es muy notorio. Nunca más me compro un panel VA.
