MSI & SteelSeries Collaborate for New Line of Curved Monitors

If you're looking for the next big thing in curved monitors, look no further than today's announcement that SteelSeries and MSI are collaborating on the Optix MPG displays. At the current time, there are two announced 27-inch gaming monitors.

The MPG 27C sports 1080P resolution while the 27CQ features 1440P. "The VA technology ensures that the Optix MPG has a wide viewing angle, better color reproduction", according to VentureBeat.

But the Optix MPG has more going on than its display. This is the first monitor to get SteelSeries GameSense integration. The monitor has five responsive RGB LED panels on the front. These can cycle through millions of colors, but they can also provide information about the state of your game with PrismSync. For example, using profiles in GameSense, these lights can change color if your character’s ultimate is ready, if you need to reload, or if someone sent you a message in Discord.

At the current time, there is no pricing information, but the monitors will be available at a number of online and brick / mortar retailers.
