MSI's New QD-OLED and Fast-IPS Gaming Monitors Debut at Computex 2025

MSI did a complete refresh of its gaming monitors here at Computex 2025, and they managed to catch our attention when we first stopped at MSI's booths. Beside the MAG 27IQR QD‑OLED X50 monitor that uses AI human detection to prevent burn-in, we see the MAG 272QP QD-OLED X50. The latter comes with a 26.5-inch 2560 x 1440 resolution display, using the same Samsung 3rd-gen QD-OLED panel and sporting a 500 Hz refresh rate. It's certified by VESA for ClearMR 21000 and DisplayHDR True Black 500. While it's missing the AI Care sensor of the MAG 27IQR, it does feature OLED Care 2.0 technology to prevent burn-in and extend the panel's lifespan. Console gamers will find full support here with HDMI 2.1 48 Gbps bandwidth ports, 120 Hz refresh rate, ALLM and VRR for next-gen consoles.

Introduced last Friday, we spotted MSI's latest 27-inch Mini-LED dual mode gaming monitor named MPG 274URDFW E16M. The monitor uses a Rapid IPS panel with Dual Mode functionality, offering 160 Hz at UHD and 320 Hz at FHD with a 0.5 ms (GtG, Min.) response time. The Mini-LED and Quantum Dot technology boasts the monitor's contrast and brightness with 1,152 full-array local dimming zones. On the connectivity side, the MPG 274URDFW E16M offers HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a, and USB Type-C with 98 W Power Delivery. The monitor also features 44 LEDs (a new MSI design) with Mystic Light support for customizable RGB effects, and a 4-way adjustable stand. For configuring the monitor, MSI included its AI Navigator feature with AI Menu for customized display settings that automatically activate when a game is launched.

MSI Unveils the MPG 274URDFW E16M - Mini-LED, Dual Mode and AI-Driven Gaming Monitor

MSI proudly introduces the MPG 274URDFW E16M, a 27-inch Mini-LED Dual Mode gaming monitor. It features a Rapid IPS panel, Dual Mode for 160 Hz at UHD and 320 Hz at FHD, 0.5 ms (GtG, Min.) response time, and AI-driven features. This monitor delivers stunning visual clarity, rich colors, and optimized performance.

Stunning Visuals with Mini-LED and Quantum Dot Technology
Powered by Mini-LED and Quantum Dot technology, the MPG 274URDFW E16M offers exceptional brightness, deep contrast, and rich colors. It features 1,152 full-array local dimming zones for precise backlight control, achieving deep blacks and sharp highlights. With VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification, 98% DCI-P3, 100% Adobe RGB, 140% sRGB coverage, and Delta E≤2 color accuracy, this monitor delivers lifelike visuals for gaming, content creation, and entertainment.

MSI Also Shows Dual-Mode and Rapid IPS Gaming Monitors

In addition to its range of QD-OLED monitors, MSI was showing a pair of more traditional gaming monitors at Computex. The first one is the MPG 321CUPF which is built around a dual-mode VA panel, which should be one of the first of its kind. It can do either 4K at 160 Hz or 1080p at 320 Hz, both with a 0.5 ms response time. The panel has a 1500R curvature, but somewhat disappointingly, it's only DisplayHDR 400 certified, suggesting it's an edge lit display. It has a pair of HDMI 2.1 inputs, one DP 1.4, one USB Type-C with DP Alt-mode and 15 Watts of USB PD charging and a headphone jack. It also has a console mode which is a 120 Hz 1080p or 4K mode for consoles. According to TFTCentral, it will retail for US$500, but there's currently no fixed launch date.

The next model on display is the MAG 274URFW which is a 27-inch Rapid IPS panel, also with 4K resolution and a 160 Hz refresh rate and a 0.5 ms response time. Connectivity and overall features remains identical to the MPG 321CUPF, but MSI has also thrown in AMD FreeSync Premium here, something that the company hasn't listed as a feature on any of the other models it was showing at Computex. No word on pricing on availability on this model, but as per the picture below, the MAG 274URFW will be avilable in white. MSI also announced some productivity monitors, all of which come with at least a 100 Hz refresh rate, which is refreshing to see (pun intended), since most productivity monitors tend to be stuck at 60 or at best 75 Hz.
