What Buyers Say
MSI Optix G273QPF 27" Black 2021
The MSI Optix G273QPF delivers excellent 1440p performance, color accuracy, and a smooth 165 Hz refresh rate, making it a favorite for gaming and productivity. However, several buyers report reliability issues like dead pixels, missing screws, and a common "no input" failure after about 11 months, requiring costly shipping for RMA.
