MSI Full HD Rapid-IPS 1ms 2560 x 1080 Ultra Wide 200Hz Refresh Rate HDR Ready G-Sync Compatible 30” Gaming Monitor (Optix MAG301RF)

Monitor arrived ahead of schedule and seller ships to Hawaii. 10++ stars. Excellent monitor for Lost Ark and other games you might want widescreen for.

I got it for $200 and I couldnt be happier with it, its 200 hz and enormous. Sure, its just 1080p, but Id rather play 200+ frames per second at 1080p than 60+ at 4K. It has fantastic visual quality and works well for anyone who wants an immersive gaming experience.

Im using it and it is very nice for gameplay and watching videos, this monitor is more colorful than my old one, and there is a very strong color gamut and the width does not make people feel tired, Pretty and nice

I scoured the internet in search of an ultrawide monitor that was not too big or too expensive. After weeks of searching, I found the MSI MAG301RF. I ordered it and couldnt be happier. The monitor is large, but not too big. The resolution is great and the colors are vibrant. It even got RGB on the back. 200hz as advertised. It was a big improvement from 60hz. Windows sets the refresh rate to 60 so you do have to change in the setting once you install it but its pretty easy to do. I would definitely recommend this monitor to anyone in the market for an ultrawide monitor that doesnt want to break the bank. All the other ones were 34in or bigger. I ordered a 34 in but it was way too big. This one was perfect. One thing I really wanted to see was curved but its not a deal-breaker. Overall, Im very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone. Thank you for reading!

Awesome gaming display, first time using a wide screen and I really like it. MSI makes a quality product at a great price. High quality and functionality, 2 of my 3 monitors are now MSI and I will certainly replace my 3rd in the future with another MSI.

Definitely recommend this 1080 p monitor 1440p to me everything is to small I was worried about switching from a curved monitor to flat panel I own a 3440x1440p that cost 500 and this one is better in my opinion also have a curved 30 inch monitor and this one looks better don’t listen to the bad reviews buy it works great for high end gaming

Bought this monitor after looking at several similar sized monitors both curved and not and am very pleased with it, turned right on out of the box with no issues. I would definitely recommend to a friend and buy again if I need to!

Bought it during prime day sales hoping to finally experience a decent ultrawide monitor. Overall the picture quality was great and i loved playing games like Red Dead Redemption 2 on it. The back light bleeding through is a bit blotchy but it didnt bother me too much. My main 2 problems were while playing some games in full screen mode if i tabbed out and then tried to tab back in the monitor would black out as if it is trying to be detected by my pc again and would refuse to actually let the game show up again. Sometimes forcing me to restart my game. This has happened for so many games i just couldnt deal with it anymore as i hate playing in windowed mode. The other more minor problem is that unlike other monitors on the market, if you turn off the monitor with the power button the pc treats it like it is no longer connected at all forcing any and all windows along with desktop icons to another monitor.(example being if im wanting to sit back and watch youtube on one monitor but want to turn off one monitor to conserve power). I ended up returning this monitor for that reason.

This monitor fills a very specific niche but it does it well. I love ultrawides but 34 is too large to be used everyday comfortably for me. Also, 2560x1080 is an easier resolution to drive than 3440x1440. I have a RTX 3060ti and it is perfect for this monitor. The colors out of the box are kind of washed out with very little pop. I had to mess with various settings to get the vibrant effect I like. My unit came with zero dead pixels and very little back light bleeding (even with high brightness). The HDR compatibility is almost a waste of time. The monitor itself doesnt get that bright and turning it on doesnt really do anything for most games. The only game I see a difference on is Doom Eternal and it absolutely makes the colors bright and vibrant. It really looks fantastic. I suppose its how the actual game was designed and not the monitor itself in most cases. Fun Fact: if you create a custom resolution in the Nvdia control panel you can enable 10 bit color up to 191hz @ 2560x1080. I dont see a difference but maybe somebody will. The 200hz feels super smooth and is very responsive. Blur busters UFO test shows nice details. Minimal motion blur. I hate VA panels due to the smearing effect. This is really the only monitor in town that is an ultrawide 30inches, IPS and 200HZ. Black frame insertion is present and actually works but due to the low brightness of the monitor it darkens the pictures a little too much for my eyes. Some games look good . Some dont. Its nice to have the option though. Minimal gamer aesthetics. With the exception of the RGB strip on the back this looks like a normal monitor with a normal stand that doesnt stick out too much. You can turn the RGB strip off in the settings. In the end Im super happy with the monitor and would recommend it to anybody looking for these specific features. I paid under 300 w/tax for this and I feel its a steal for that. There is lots of value here.

Best gaming monitor in the market at a very charming price.
