MSI MAG 275F 27-Inch Gaming Monitor – Full HD, 180Hz, Rapid IPS, 0.5ms Response

Designed for gamers and users seeking fluid visuals at Full HD resolution, the MSI MAG 275F brings speed and clarity together in a refined 27-inch package. The panel is a Rapid IPS type, delivering refresh rates up to 180 Hz and a fast 0.5 ms (GtG, minimum) response time, ensuring that motion appears smooth and input actions feel responsive, especially in fast-paced games. Wide viewing angles of 178° horizontally and vertically are provided, maintaining strong color and contrast even when viewed off-axis, and an anti-glare surface is used to reduce reflections.

Connectivity and visual options have been built in to support modern platforms: two HDMI 2.0b ports and one DisplayPort 1.4 input are provided. Additionally, the display supports Adaptive-Sync, HDR, and dedicated modes like “Console Mode” and “AI Vision” that adjust brightness, contrast, and color dynamically to suit gaming, movie, or console output. The exterior design includes narrow bezels (frameless style) on three sides, tilt adjustment (-5° to +20°), and compatibility with VESA 100×100 mounting so that users may position it flexibly according to their setup.

Key Features and Explanations

• 180 Hz Refresh Rate + 0.5 ms Rapid IPS Response Time: Motion is rendered with minimal blur — this combination benefits gaming and fast action where clarity and reduced ghosting are important.

• Adaptive-Sync & HDR Support: Tearing and stuttering are reduced with Adaptive-Sync; HDR functionality gives more dynamic contrast and improved highlights for supported content.

• Frameless / Borderless Design: Narrow bezels on three sides improve aesthetics and make multi-monitor setups look more seamless.

• AI Vision Modes: Pre-programmed profiles or algorithms adjust display parameters like exposure, contrast, and color saturation to improve visibility in dark scenes and optimize color vividness.

• Console Mode: When connected to gaming consoles, this mode is activated to support the console’s variable refresh rate or specific output settings.

• Wide Viewing Angles & Anti-Glare Surface: Use viewing from different positions without significant color wash-out; glare is suppressed to help with comfort under ambient lighting.
