But the MSI MPG 272QRF X36, along with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/what-is-gsync-pulsar-how-does-it-work\">G-Sync Pulsar<\/a>, might just be the new benchmark for VRR technology. That\u2019d be cool by itself, but the 272QRF X36 is also reasonably affordable, making this early adopter tech that doesn\u2019t have an early adopter price tag. <\/p>\n<p>Even without Pulsar, this is a 1440p monitor with a 360Hz refresh rate, and it supports HDR. That would be worth the $649 by itself, Pulsar is just the rapidly blinking icing on the top. <\/p>\n<aside>\n<h2>Purchasing Guide<\/h2>\n<p>The MSI MPG 272QRF X36 is available now for $649. At the time of writing, it is only available at <a href=\"https:\/\/zdcs.link\/z7RbyL\">Newegg<\/a>, but wider availability will surely follow. <\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<section data-transform=\"catalog-item-wrapper\" data-catalogid=\"07ccd395-fd80-490a-aace-dd1636625814\" data-id=\"235654\">\n<section data-transform=\"catalog-item\" data-catalogid=\"07ccd395-fd80-490a-aace-dd1636625814\" data-id=\"235654\" data-show-pricing=\"false\" data-highlighted=\"false\"><\/section>\n\n<h2>Design and Features<\/h2>\n<p>In order to keep the price at $649, there are obviously going to be some compromises, but the most immediate seems to be the packaging. The box that this monitor comes in is a pretty standard rectangular box, but once I opened it to take the display out, I was greeted by some of the flimsiest corrugated cardboard I\u2019ve ever seen. I had to <em>gingerly<\/em> take the monitor out of the box, worried that the packaging was going to tear. But, hey, once I got the display out, it was free of any kind of aesthetic damage, so that thin cardboard did its job. <\/p>\n<p>Once I got the actual display out, I was impressed by the quality of the stand. Not only does it easily attach to the screen without any tools, but the base can rotate in any direction, and the mount itself will let the display also rotate in any direction. The point here, according to MSI, is to let people have a bit more power over their space, manipulating the stand to fit their setup. <\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"slideshow\" data-slug=\"msi-mpg-272qrf-x36-photos\" data-value=\"msi-mpg-272qrf-x36-photos\" data-type=\"slug\" data-caption=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>That did make the process of actually attaching the stand a bit more laborious, as it was moving around as I was trying to set it up. But now that it\u2019s on my desk, I\u2019m a huge fan of how easy it is to move around, even if I just move it to get easier access to the ports on the back, which is huge, because they\u2019re all facing down. <\/p>\n<p>As for which ports you get, there\u2019s one DisplayPort 1.4a and two HDMI 2.1 for video in. Then, there is a USB Type-B to allow USB passthrough for the 3 USB Type-A ports on the back. There\u2019s also something I haven\u2019t seen in a <em>long <\/em>time \u2013 a USB Micro port, which is just used to update the firmware. <\/p>\n<p>While the tech powering the display is new, the monitor doesn\u2019t actually <em>look<\/em> all that new, and that mostly comes down to how thick it is. The display itself is nearly three inches thick, which is much thicker than most high-end monitors. A lot of this thickness is populated with vents, though, which is likely necessary to cool the added processor required for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/what-is-gsync-pulsar-how-does-it-work\">G-Sync Pulsar<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The bezels are reasonable, measuring in at about 0.7 inches by my own measurements, though there is a larger bezel on the bottom where you\u2019ll find the logo. Turn the monitor around, however, and it\u2019s very clear that this is a capital-G gaming monitor. Just like many other MSI devices, this monitor is emblazoned by a dragon on the back, and has a surprisingly modest RGB light strip on the opposite end. <\/p>\n<p>On the bottom-left corner on the back, you\u2019ll also find a little joystick that\u2019ll let you interact with the OSD. By default, pushing it to the left will let you adjust the display mode, and pushing it to the right will swap inputs. Then, it\u2019s up for brightness and down for volume \u2013 even though there is no built-in speaker. <\/p>\n<p>Up on the top of the display is what looks like a webcam protruding from the monitor \u2013 but it\u2019s no webcam. Instead, it\u2019s a light sensor, which can track ambient light and color temperature to adjust the display accordingly. <\/p>\n<p>When I used these features, it frequently made the display dim, but luckily it\u2019s an opt-in feature. You just have to go into the OSD and go to \u201cAmbient Adaptive Luminance\u201d or \u201cAmbient Adaptive Color\u201d and enable them to have the MPG X27QRF X36 automatically adjust brightness or color, respectively. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/02\/18\/pulsar-1-1771439848607.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/02\/18\/pulsar-1-1771439848607.jpg\" class=\"article-image-full-size\" title=\"null\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Performance and Gaming<\/h2>\n<p>Without Pulsar, the MSI MPG 272QRFX36 would be a pretty standard high-refresh 1440p monitor. This is a decent IPS panel with a 360Hz refresh rate and 0.5ms GTG latency. However, my first impressions weren\u2019t exactly glowing. <\/p>\n<p>Right out of the box, the monitor was set to its \u201cEco\u201d preset, which is great for conserving power, but also delivered an incredibly dim picture. Luckily, I was able to go into the OSD and set it to \u201cStandard\u201d which looks <em>much<\/em> better, and actually allowed me to do my tests. <\/p>\n<p>Even though the 272QRF X36 is only rated for 500 nits of peak brightness, I tested the display with a colorimeter and found that it <em>actually<\/em> peaked at 530 nits, which is not bad for a gaming monitor this fast. The display does struggle with color, though, only hitting 100% of the sRGB color gamut and 88% of the P3 gamut. That means it\u2019s probably not going to be used for design work any time soon, but that\u2019s really not what it\u2019s meant for. <\/p>\n<p>What actually matters is that the display looks <em>pretty good<\/em> in games, while also being incredibly fast. Pairing it with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5080-review\">RTX 5080<\/a>, I was able to crank the settings in Black Ops 7, while also getting north of 360 fps, thanks to frame generation. Frame generation does limit some of the benefits of a high refresh display, namely latency, but it does look incredibly smooth when that many frames are being sent to the display. <\/p>\n<p>The MPG 272QRF does compromise a little bit on image quality and color to get there, but even when I was playing Cyberpunk 2077, it was colorful enough to keep me engrossed in the game. However, when I swapped back to my usual OLED display, I immediately noticed the difference again. <\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"poll\" data-id=\"d0a989a2-d7e3-4a39-9527-9e440ea52356\"><\/section>\n<h2>G-Sync Pulsar: Is It Worth It?<\/h2>\n<p>But while the MSI MPG 272QRF X36 doesn\u2019t have the best image quality in the world, the appeal is in the new G-Sync Pulsar tech that\u2019s being debuted here. <\/p>\n<p>Essentially, this technology uses a strobing backlight that\u2019s tied to your current refresh rate to mitigate motion blur, making for a much smoother image when playing games at a high refresh rate. What makes this tech different from other backlight strobing or BFI (black frame insertion) methods in the past, is that it\u2019s tied to a variable refresh rate, rather than the maximum refresh rate. <\/p>\n<p>That means you get the benefits of VRR while also getting much less blur. Nvidia claims that playing on a Pulsar monitor is similar to playing at 1,000Hz, and while I wouldn\u2019t go <em>that<\/em> far, I did feel a substantial difference, especially when playing competitive games. <\/p>\n<p>For background, I mostly stick to turn-based RPGs or MMOs like World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XIV. But over the weekend I spent some time playing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/call-of-duty-black-ops-7-multiplayer-review\">Black Ops 7<\/a> and the Halo Master Chief Collection, and performed <em>much<\/em> better than I usually would. In the former, I went three matches in a row with a 3:1 ratio, where usually I\u2019d be feeding the enemy team. <\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t exactly a scientific method of measuring the effect Pulsar had on my performance, as I could have just been lucky. But still, the games felt much smoother than they did before, and it did feel like it was making a difference, particularly to my ability to aim while moving. <\/p>\n<p>Even with the lackluster image quality, if I didn\u2019t need to have a 4K display for work, I\u2019d buy this monitor to use as my daily driver. As long as you have a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/best-amd-graphics-cards\"> graphics card<\/a> that\u2019s powerful enough to run a 1440p display at 360Hz, this Pulsar display is worth your attention, especially if you play a lot of competitive games.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also important to keep in mind that this isn\u2019t the only G-Sync Pulsar Monitor out there right now. The Asus ROG Strix XG27AQNGV and the AOC Agon Pro AG276QSG2 also support the new technology. And while I haven\u2019t tested those monitors quite yet, if the Pulsar implementation is anything like it is on the MPG 272QRF X36, they\u2019re worth a look. I\u2019ll definitely be trying to get them in the lab to see what they can do. <\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"divider\"><\/section>\n<p><em>Jackie Thomas is the Hardware and Buying Guides Editor at IGN and the PC components queen.
