The MSI Optix G27CQ4 is a very good budget-friendly gaming monitor with a 27-inch screen and 1440p resolution. It has all the features most gamers are looking for, like FreeSync variable refresh rate (VRR) support and a native 165Hz refresh rate. Its input lag is really low, but even though it has a quick response time, you may notice some motion blur in fast-moving scenes.

Its VA panel has a high native contrast ratio, but it lacks a local dimming feature to improve it.

Lastly, it doesn’t support HDR, which is somewhat expected for a model in this price range.
