Our take on the MSI MAG 27CQ6F 27 Inch WQHD Curved Gaming Monitor

The MSI MAG 27CQ6F is a 27-inch WQHD (2560 x 1440) curved gaming monitor built on a Rapid VA panel. It runs at 180 Hz with a 0.5 ms GtG minimum response time and a 5000:1 static contrast ratio, which gives deep blacks and strong punch in dark scenes. Two HDMI 2.0b ports and one DisplayPort 1.4 cover a PC plus a console, and a 5-way joystick handles the on-screen menu. It suits gamers who want a big, immersive 1440p picture and high frame rates on a budget, but the VA panel means slower pixel transitions in dark tones than a good IPS or OLED, and there are no built-in speakers.

Questions and answers

Is 180 Hz worth it over a 144 Hz monitor?
The jump from 144 Hz to 180 Hz is modest but noticeable in fast shooters. The bigger gain here is the 0.5 ms GtG minimum response and the 1440p resolution, which together make motion clearer than a 1080p 144 Hz screen.
How does VA compare with IPS on this monitor?
VA gives roughly 5000:1 contrast, so blacks look far deeper than on typical IPS panels. The trade-off is slower dark-tone transitions, which can smear in fast scenes; IPS would be more consistent in motion but with washed-out blacks.
Does it work well with a PS5 or Xbox Series X?
Yes. The HDMI 2.0b ports accept 1440p at up to 120 Hz from current consoles, and the monitor downscales a 4K signal to 1440p. You will not get 4K or 120 Hz over HDMI at full 4K, since HDMI 2.0 bandwidth caps it.
Does it have speakers or a headphone jack?
There are no built-in speakers. A 3.5 mm headphone out is included, so you can plug in headphones or route audio to external speakers.
What is in the box?
The monitor, a stand, a power cable and the usual documentation. Check the listing for which video cable is included, since bundles vary.
Is the curve a problem for office work?
The curvature is gentle, so text and spreadsheets stay readable. Some users prefer a flat panel for straight-line work, but most adjust within a day.
