Product Overview
MSI Optix G27C6 is a premium 27-inch FHD 1500R-curved gaming monitor in MSI's 2020 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit VA panel.

Reviewer score 35% (normalized by Neofiliac)MSI Optix G27C6 is designed for gaming and offers good performance in that regard. It has a 165Hz refresh rate with VRR support and low input lag. Sadly, the response time is slow, and motion looks blurry. It's just okay for office use or content creators because it has a less-than-ideal 1080p resolution.
Pros
- Excellent native contrast ratio
- High refresh rate with VRR support and G-SYNC compatibility
- Low input lag
Cons
- Narrow viewing angles
- Terrible ergonomics
- No local dimming feature
