MSI Announce the MPG 242R X60N, a 24″ Rapid TN Film Gaming Screen with a 600Hz Refresh Rate

MSI have today announced a new gaming screen in their popular MPG series, a model that will be showcased at CES 2025 next week as well. The MPG 242R X60N is a 24.1″ sized screen with a 600Hz refresh rate ‘Rapid TN Film’ panel. These smaller LCD screens are still popular for competitive and esports gaming, with the latest 600Hz refresh rate panel offering something even higher than current 540Hz options (e.g. the Asus ROG Swift Pro PG248QP we’ve reviewed in the past), for improved motion clarity, latency and frame rate support.

We don’t have a full spec sheet for this model yet but will try and find out more information at the CES event. We know that it has a 1920 x 1080 resolution and a 0.5ms G2G response time spec. The high 600Hz refresh rate is supported by adaptive-sync for VRR, and the screen will be certified under the AMD ‘FreeSync Premium Pro’ scheme.

Gaming features are of course a focus, with MSI’s Gaming Intelligence app supported as well as things like ‘AI Vision’ and ‘AI Crosshair’ included.

A USB type-C connection is listed with 98W power delivery which should also have DP Alt mode and data delivery. We expect to see DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI (likely v2.0) included as well. A KVM switch function is also listed, and the screen will support user-updateable firmware.

More info on specs and features when we get it. The screen is expected to be launched during Q2 but initially only in China we are told. You can check see all our coverage from MSI’s booth at CES 2025, including this screen, in our video here.
