MSI launches a pair of Optix gaming monitors-- the Optix MPG27C and MPG27CQ, both 27-inch curved monitors featuring PrismSync illumination and SteelSeries GameSense technology.
The main differing factor between the two monitors is resolution, since the MPG27C is 1920 x 1080 while the MPG27CQ is 2560 x 1440. The higher resolution model also has a boost in brightness reaching up to 400 nits (the MPG27C on the other hand has 250 nits brightness). Otherwise the two feature a 1800R curved VA LED panel with 1ms response time, 48-144Hz refresh rate with Adaptive Sync, 115% sRGB gamut and 100% NTSC gamut.
Connectivity comes through x2 HDMI and x1 DisplayPort 1.2 ports, as well as a headphone/mic combi jack and a USB 2.0 hub. The monitors come on a stand offering adjustable tilt, swivel and height, and the lower edge of the bezel has 5 RGB segments customers can program via SteelSeries Engine to notify of in-game timers, stats, cooldowns or even Discord notifications. The back also has "Mystic Light" ambient lighting source.
MSI says the tow monitors are "coming soon."
