✅Best 1440p Gaming Monitors of 2026 so far MONTHLY (APRIL) UPDATED
Can confirm. Got 2 of these in december 2024 - this month both of them started dying. One would end up flickering and having weird backlight "artifacts" appear for some time after turning pc on and other one had black lines. Sent both of them back to MSI. I'm losing more and more faith in msi monito

When will HDR will be supported?
MSI MAG 274QRF QD E2, whenever I start screen capture, it seems like the gamma is being adjusted by 2.2, so everything becomes incredibly bright, makes it unusable.

MSI MAG274QRF-QD BACKLIGHT FAILURE
that really is unfortunate, i would recommend making a rma claim with msi if your unit is still under warranty as mine had a 3 years coverage might vary as per region as i heard some places it was just 2 instead. so if that's the case and you are out of warranty the only way i have heard of is to re

MSI Monitor Broke Just After Warranty Ended – Can It Be Fixed? Trust in the Brand Lost
My Optix MAG274QRF-QD started having backlight issues. Now the left side is eternally dimmed. What a crappy company. I'm never buying from them again.

All MSI Gaming Monitors are now covered by a 3-year warranty!

MAG274QRF-QD starts fine then goes dim on sides?
Hey Andrew, the backlight has stopped working on my MAG274QRF-QD as well, right around the 4-year mark. Warranty has expired. I registered the monitor the day I got it. Is there anything you or MSI can do to help me out. I'm willing to pay or meet halfway on the cost or repair if so.

Yeah this seems to be a pattern as my MAG274QRF-QD is having the exact same backlight issues just outside the warranty period

MSI MONITOR HAS DEAD PIXEL
I've had monitors from LG, Samsung, and Asus, none of them had this problem, but a couple of months ago I got a MAG274QRF-QD that has a dead pixel and I didn't notice it until recently, I definitely wouldn't buy any MSI monitor again...

Elgato HD60X input latency with Switch 2
Sorry should've added the monitor as well to the setup! I've updated the original post, thanks for checking that! I'm using monitors, two MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD. They're both in game mode as I don't feel the same input latency when playing on normally on my desktop.
