Score: 84/100Rankings
The MSI MAG 245F X24 is a 24-inch FHD gaming monitor with a blistering 240 Hz refresh rate and 0.5 ms response time, making it ideal for competitive play. Its limited port selection, modest brightness, and relatively heavy build are notable trade-offs. Best suited for esports enthusiasts using AMD GPUs who prioritize speed over extensive connectivity.
The Dell S2722DC is a 27-inch QHD IPS monitor with a 75 Hz refresh rate, USB-C docking and AMD FreeSync, targeting mobile professionals and casual gamers. Its modest 75 Hz panel and lack of HDR limit high-performance gaming and bright-room usage. Best for laptop users who want a single-cable dock and solid color accuracy.
