MSI Launches the Optix MAGG322CR 180 Hz Monitor

When it comes to eSports, there are few aspects of a monitors design more important than having a high refresh rate. Why? Well, put simply a higher-refresh-rate means less time between frames and, as such, a greater window of reaction.

To date, however, most of the higher refresh models have largely been restricted to 27″ designs. Not all, yes, we know! Following a new product launch, however, MSI has just revealed the 31.5″ Optix MAGG322CR curved gaming monitor coming with a pretty hefty 180 Hz refresh rate.

When is it Out and How Much Will it Cost?

At the time of writing, MSI has confirmed neither the release date nor the price for the Optix MAGG322CR. Based on the launch, however, we would anticipate this hitting shelves within the coming weeks.

As for the price, well, as a gaming monitor, this certainly packs a lot of the more ‘high-end’ features. As such, we’d likely expect a price of around £250-£300. Not cheap, but for a competitive gamer, this could give you a huge edge over the competition!
