27″ MSI MAG 272PF X24 – Specs & Features
The MSI MAG 272PF X24 pairs a 27-inch IPS panel at 1920 × 1080 with a refresh rate of up to 240 Hz.
Overview
The MSI MAG 272PF X24 pairs a 27-inch IPS panel at 1920 × 1080 with a refresh rate of up to 240 Hz. It offers 81 ppi pixel density, 300 nits typical brightness, 1000:1 static contrast and 122% sRGB and 94% DCI-P3 coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–240 Hz, quotes 1 ms response and supports Adaptive-Sync. Inputs include 2× HDMI 2.0 and 1× DisplayPort 1.2. The stand offers 130 mm of height adjustment, swivel and pivot. 2 × 2 W speakers are built in, and it weighs 6.1 kg with the stand. It suits competitive players who put frame rate first. The main trade-off: 81 ppi at 27 inches makes text look softer than on sharper panels.
