Overview
Aimed at gamers, the MSI MAG 245C X24 is a 23.6-inch VA display with a 1920 × 1080 panel that refreshes at up to 240 Hz. It offers 93 ppi pixel density, 300 nits typical brightness, 3000:1 static contrast and 96% sRGB and 75% DCI-P3 coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–240 Hz, quotes 1 ms MPRT response and supports Adaptive-Sync. Inputs include 2× HDMI 2.0 and 1× DisplayPort 1.2. The stand tilts only. There are no speakers, and it weighs 3.2 kg with the stand. It suits competitive players who put frame rate first. The main trade-off: tilt-only stand has no height, swivel or pivot adjustment.
