If you're looking for excellent gaming performance and are willing to invest in an upper midrange monitor, both the MSI MAG 271QPX and MSI MPG 271QRX offer exceptional refresh rates and response times that cater to competitive gaming. The MPG 271QRX is slightly more expensive but comes with additional connectivity options, such as more DisplayPort and USB ports, plus higher USB power delivery, which could be beneficial if you have multiple devices to connect. The MAG 271QPX, being slightly less expensive, still delivers a superb visual experience but with fewer connectivity options. Both monitors are equally capable of vibrant colors and contrast for HDR gaming and media consumption, making either a strong choice for a riveting visual experience. Give Feedback
