MSI have recently launched a new 32″ sized monitor in their MAG range, offering a 4K resolution and 160Hz refresh rate combined. It offers an attractive option for PC and console gaming, also featuring HDMI 2.1 ports to support the latest PS5 and Xbox consoles.

MSI MAG 323UPF Specs

The screen is 32″ in size and has a 3840 x 2160 “4K” resolution IPS-type panel. There is a 1ms G2G response time spec, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 440 cd/m2 brightness (SDR), 178/178 viewing angles, an 8-bit+FRC colour depth (supporting 10-bit content) and a wide colour gamut backlight covering 95% of the DCI-P3 reference, along with 93.6% Adobe RGB and ~125.7% sRGB.

The screen also has a native 160Hz refresh rate, and this is supported by adaptive-sync for VRR from compatible NVIDIA and AMD systems. This has a VRR range of 48 – 160Hz, and the screen is also expected to include certifications under the AMD ‘FreeSync Premium Pro’ and NVIDIA ‘G-sync Compatible’ schemes.

HDR Capabilities

In terms of HDR the screen conforms to the VESA DisplayHDR 600 tier, which requires a peak brightness of 600 nits, support for 10-bit colour depth and a wide colour gamut. It also requires some kind of local dimming, with simple edge-lit dimming included here.

Connectivity and Stand

The screen has 1x DisplayPort 1.4 (with DSC), 2x HDMI 2.1 and 1x USB type-C (with DP Alt mode and 90W power delivery) for video. MSI mention the HDMI 2.1 ports as supporting “up to 48Gbps”, and being able to support the full 4K @160Hz, although additional features like HDMI-VRR that can be useful for consoles are not listed.

There are also 3x USB data ports and a headphone connection available. The screen can support multiple video inputs with various PiP and PbP modes, and also includes a KVM function. The stand features tilt, height and swivel adjustments.

The MAG 323UPF is expected to be available soon at a retail price ~$700 USD.
