Dude you never showed overdrive 80 on the asus. That is the BEST mode for 240hz... Wtf? Why only show 60 and 100? Seems super dishonest...

[@FweshGuy]

What are the best settings for FPS games in the MSI Gaming 0SD 2.0??? (Valorant specifically)

[@TheKillerZmile]

Does elmb gives Input Delay?

[@SebastianCollector]

This MSI or Dell Alienware AW2521HF??

[@dbroncos090]

Hey since you’ve personally used the MSI MAG251RX and the ASUS VG259QM, and you stated in the ASUS review that your alien ship testing methodology was inaccurate. Do you notice any real world (during gameplay) differences in the picture/responsiveness/clarity/motion blur between the two panels after having actually used them?

[@Gabriel-mi9bz]

Took long enough 😂

[@adrianlewis2536]

@@BijanJamshidi Ya goddamn right 😂😂😂

[@szas]

The best reviews of all the internet by far, the organization of all aspects of the monitor is perfect, the description of the video is very complete and you explain it clearly and without mincing the tongue, not like others who sell you the product and never say the bad points . Keep working so you will go very far.

[@mooney5108]

Do you know if you can access the software osd if you play through console? Or is there any way to do that?

[@iTzDaNiiLo]

Good to know companies are finally sending you units to review! Well done, MSI

[@netrospect6525]

Smart move MSI. best place to showcase a full gaming focused monitor. I will be recommending this as an option to a friend who is currently in the market for a new gaming monitor. he has been leaning toward the ASUS VG259QM

[@jerinsarmin9905]

Which one is better and what did your friend bought ?

[@LuvEx.]

@@jerinsarmin9905 msi is better

Waiting a year until you hit a million subs and someone does a “THIS IS A” compilation. Looking forward to it. Anyway, as always, incredible content man 💞

[@vyminal]

One of the most professional reviews I've seen. You deserve way more views and subs! kudos!

[@nenobeats]

Dude after a while I knew your channel was going to blow up, and I'm so happy to watch your channel on my other KZbin channel since day one. Thanks for the videos.

omg u saw my comment anyways shud i get the msi mag251rx or vg259qm i am using it mainly for gaming purposes

[@BijanJamshidi]

You’ll be happy with either. I like MSI tho

[@16xthedetail76]

Your reviews are excellent man! You're actually growing pretty fast, well deserved in my opinion.

[@kanezhang5813]

I recently started building my own pc, and though it's not complete yet (waiting for the processor to come in), I'm looking into buying a monitor since my current one is meh 75hz monitor I got for free. I've already watched a few videos, but I'd feel guilty if I didn't leave a comment or do something to support. Your content is probably one of the best: it's not only organized, but laid out in a traditional argument style PIE-style, and you are super concise, talking only facts, including the shortcomings it has to and comparisons to other monitors. Not ONLY that, but your editing is incredible yet simplistic, and your pace and somewhat impassionate voice makes it super easy to listen to all the way through. It really is no wonder you grew so much in the last two years. Keep the content up, and I'll be sure to keep you in my feed! (honestly probably won't see this but hey, leaving a comment)

[@garryarganis5801]

hey !! first loaner review sample good work man ! good looking monitor too. now we have to make other companies start sending review units too . yes aorus, samsung, asus, aoc, viewsonic, hp, benq, dell, lenovo im talking about you .

[@ДмитрийДубровский-с1ф]

thanks for the subtitles from Russia with love)

[@breakies]

Watching this on my MSI MAG251RX and I totally love it. For the People afraid it will be too dimm with ELMB, I countered it with "Night Vision: Strong" and a bit of tweaking in the Graphics Driver Settings to colors and brightness.

[@amp741]

I also have an MSI MAG251RX. can you tell me the exact "tweaking" settings you did in the nvidia control panel to counter the lower brightness with anti motion blur enabled?

[@breakies]

@@amp741 unlucky, but i have a 5700XT. when using ELMB i use it with its black equalizer on strongest or strong and bump up the following in adrenaline: brightness 100 -> 120 contrast 100 -> 115 saturation 100 -> 110 i tweak this depending on game, but it will give you a rough estimate to go from there. the colors will never be as good as with just response time on fastet, but i think i got pretty close to useable. good luck.

[@alvinsuc]

can you still use ELMB on 240hz?

[@breakies]

@@alvinsuc yes, but personally i leave it turned off now because the colors are just not good and i get a headache from it. not because of the strobing but because the edge's start flimmering in fps in fast movement.

[@alvinsuc]

@@breakies i see! so if i was the fastest pixel response times especially playing fps games aka csgo or valorant i should just turn ELMB off and use the “Fastest” Overdrive option right? just curious if you did anymore color calibration too for games like valorant which I play a lot and I just want the best settings for valorant..

[@kodacko]

Thank you for being an honest reviewer. It's a small thing but it's a big deal to me. This is awesome knowing that you put us, the consumer first. Thank you.

[@avsharma24]

Thank you so much for such informational videos, because of your help I bought this monitor a week ago and it's simply amazing. The anti motion blur does give me a headache but setting it to fastest does the job for me and I can't really tell the difference. Thank you once again. You're amazing.

[@marioopacak4935]

Bijan, I hope you're following happenings on the new XL2540K-B or just K, Benq Zowie. It's September tomorrow and we are starting to count days till they announce officially their new model. Be sure to get it ASAP and I wanna watch your review ASAP. Stay sharp!

i think its important to say that Msi Optix Mag251rx can't use elmb while using g synch or amd v synch while the ASUS TUF VG259QM can use elmb while using synch at the same time + its higher brightness when on

Won’t make a video comparing, but the MSI wrecks the Alienware. Alienware just looks much better.

Looks as in design.

Nice review. You posted this right as I went to Microcenter to get the VG259QM. Since it's kind of hard to get the MSI think this one is fine.

[@Diggo11]

Very interesting review! MSI has some really good software there and the lower levels of black equaliser looked both useful and beautiful rather than a washed out mess. I wonder if there is alot of panel variance because your sRGB coverage number is alot lower than I've seen elsewhere.
