The MSI monitor receives overwhelmingly positive feedback for its picture quality, color accuracy, and high refresh rate of 320Hz, making it a great value for gaming. However, one verified review highlights serious issues with the audio output via the aux port, describing it as weak and tinny, and the included DisplayPort cable was defective. The RGB lighting on the back is considered useless by some. Overall, the monitor is praised for its performance and aesthetics, but potential buyers should be aware of the audio limitations.
