A LUT (Look Up Table) contains precalculated sets of values that are used to apply transformations to the input color data so that the resulting data meets certain (the desired) visual standard and color accuracy. For example, LUT can be used to emulate/map different color spaces and gamma settings. Many professional monitors as well as some TVs have programmable internal LUTs allowing more control over the image.

Response times are good for a gaming monitor, though it is not OLED-level. It is possible to further reduce response times, but that comes at the expense of overshoot and ghosting. Enabling MPRT Sync can reduce the ghosting effects to a large extent, but it also reduces display brightness significantly. The major competitor to this monitor is the Gigabyte M27Q X, which also offers a similar feature set at possibly lower prices. Still, the MSI Optix MAG274QRX's offers a lot for the money compared to more premium QHD options such as the Acer Predator XB273U GX, Alienware AW2721D, Samsung Odyssey G7, and the Asus ROG Swift PG279QM. Size class of the display as declared by the manufacturer. Often this is the rounded value of the actual size of the diagonal in inches. Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio.This monitor has modest proportions compared to the first few monitors that had V-shaped bases from MSI. The display cabinet is slimmer while the square base takes up less space than the more aggressive-looking designs. It’s also lightweight so you can bring it with you easily if you need it for a competition or maybe a LAN party with the boys. The most widely used panels are those with 6, 8, and 10 bits for each of the RGB components of the pixel. They provide 18-, 24-, and 30-bit color, respectively.

The operating temperature shows the safe temperature range (from minimum to maximum), within which the display will function flawlessly. Outside this range it might operate improperly and/or fail entirely. TheOptix MAG274QRX also features a console mode for hooking up the Xbox or PlayStation consoles. Console mode basically downscales the 4K output from the console to the monitor's 1440p standard. The feature also gets variable refresh rate support with the latest firmware update. There are various panel technologies. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. The image quality depends directly on the type of the display panel used. Collecting the old product which is officially counted as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). These products are separated into the correct waste flow at our local depots and send directly to government approved WEEE recycling plants. As a White Goods manufacturer, we take our WEEE obligations very seriously and actively encourage our customers to use the most environmentally friendly recycling scheme available in the UK Approximate width of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio.The Gaming Intelligence app offers the exact same functionality as the OSD and requires connecting the monitor to the PC via the USB upstream port. The app allows selection of several display presets and further fine tuning them as needed. Functions such as toggling MPRT, Adaptive Sync, and configuring the scope size, crosshair shape, PIP/PBP, etc. can all be accessed easily. KVM 2.0 – Control and transfer files between multiple devices via one set of keyboard, mouse, and MSI gaming monitor. Windows 11 already offers extensive split window functions, but Split Window tab offers even more possibilities. There's a hidden macro key towards the bottom left of the panel, which invokes the Gaming Intelligence app by default but can also be configured for other functions. Power consumption is fairly economical as long as you don't use the panel at 100% brightness. HDR support is present, but you should be looking at this monitor primarily for its SDR performance. The storage humidity shows the lower and upper humidity limit, which ensures safe storage of the display. Storing it outside these limits might damage the display.
