WFHD (2560x1080) High Resolution

Adjustable Stand
The MSI Optix Gaming monitor is built to make you as comfortable as possible while gaming. Through adjustments of tilting (-5°~20°), lowering, raising (0~100 mm), swiveling (-75°~75°), and pivoting (-90°~90°), you can easily change the position of the monitor for maximum ergonomics and optimum viewing experiences.

HDR Ready
High Dynamic Range (HDR) display delivers better color and contrast accuracy. Optix MAG274QRF-QD is equipped with HDR technology that can produce images with more details, a wider range of colors, and look more similar to what is seen by the human eye when compared to traditional monitors.

Night Vision
Night Vision smartly computes and amplifies the details in the dark area of the screen, as opposed to brutally brightening the whole screen and causing some areas to overexpose. This creates overall comfortable and pleasing images. You are not afraid of dark anymore, are you?

Moreover, why the hell are we talking about curvature, when the monitor itself is flat as a pancake?
