Monitor recommendation between these 2

[JKD456]

Hi,

i've been doing some research on what new monitor to get. Im looking for something thats 27" 144hz and va and 1440p and preferably curved. so far i've found 2 i'm torn between and would like some reccomendatoins between them or maybe others you think are better for the price.

 

 i found the 27" MSI Optix MAG271CQR Curved Monitor and the AOC CQ32G1 31.5" QHD FreeSync 144Hz Curved Gaming Monitor

 

From the rewies and price im leaning more towards the AOC, I love RGB but on a monitor even i think its a bit pointless haha. just wondering if the worse brand (AOC) will come with any compromises and if 31" will be to big. im using a 24" 144hz TN currently and though that 27" would be perfect but from looking at reviews people seem to love wide monitors so as a whole im leaning towards the AOC.

 

(Yes i have the desk space and im buying it 1440p for when i get my new gpu in a few months, future proofing. I have no problem gaming on it in 1080p  ) 

 

Opinions?

AOC and that MSi are pretty much on pare. AOC a bit darker than the MSI though but fixed mine with NVIDIA control panel vibrance and 60% and 100% brightness. AOC I like it but if I could've chosen now MSI I'd go with.

If you want read differences: https://www.gpucheck.com/compare-monitors/31.5-msi-optix-mag321cqr-vs-31.5-aoc-cq32g1/

So at the end judging on owning one and looking in person at the MSI. I'd say you'd be better off at spending a little extra for the MSI. 32" if possible.

Curved screens are better at bigger size cause depending on setup it may look flat due to only 3 inches bigger than your current panel.

If it were me and I could return the AOC I would.

MSI headset hanger is something I need and the RGB is nice looking.

so would you recommend the MSI MAG271CQR. i can't seem to find anywhere that sells a 31.5" MSI Optix MAG321CQR except for a really bad reviewed website. i was also planning on going duel monitor but with a 31.5" i won't be able to

Really? Well the 32 is 440 USD. If you want to do dual then needing two, price wise is the AOC like I said it's not bad it's actually good for the price but in my opinion the MSI is nicer looking and could be better in games. Like the link I sent. Pretty much the same just different brands and I'm sure the MSI is brighter and better in games.
