You can feel it, can't you? The uptick in frivolous birdsong, the first tickles of pollen in the air, Steam sales beckoning us like an easter bunny with chocolates, and gaming hardware manufacturers dropping their powerful products to unthinkably low prices. Yes, Spring has come, and MSI is here to welcome it with an Easter sale bonanza.
The hardware honchos at MSI have knocked some of their best gaming monitors—and other hardware—down to record-low prices. We've picked out some of the best deals below, but don't let that stop you digging deeper into the MSI sale and uncovering some bargains of your own.
The MSI Easter Promotion sale runs until April 9, but you'll need to get in there quick for the Amazon Spring Sales, which end March 25.
On a budget: G272QPF
£299 > £219 (27% off, save up to £80)
If you're looking to sneak in an upgrade for a low price, then this 1440p 27" monitor is a great shout. With a 170Hz refresh rate, it'll comfortably push frame rates that most GPUs out there will have their work cut out in reaching. The 1ms response time, meanwhile, will ensure that you're not losing any ground to your rivals in fast-paced online shooters and MOBAs.
This monitor is HDR-Ready, G-Sync Compatible, and has an adjustable stand to maximise your gaming comfort.
The curved option: MAG 325CQRXF
£449 > £399 (11% off, save up to £50)
The next level up is this 32" monster. The curved 1440p Rapid VA display envelopes you in the on-screen action, while the DisplayHDR 400 capabilities are a big step up from 'HDR Ready,' offering higher peak luminance and true 8-bit image quality.
The 240Hz refresh rate should accommodate anything your GPU is capable of, and the 1ms response time keeps you one step ahead when it matters most (which, let's be honest, is usually in online games).
Higher-tier HDR: MSI MAG 323UPF
£799 > £499 (38% off, save up to £300)
If you prefer your monitors flat rather than curved, and want to enjoy the true blacks and tangible increase in colour gamuts offered by DisplayHDR 600 technology, then it may be worth your money to grab this heavily discounted display. Crucially, the 32" screen squeezes in a 4K resolution, ensuring diamond-clear fidelity running at up to 160 fps thanks to the 160Hz refresh rate.
A Rapid IPS panel, 1ms response time, and FreeSync Premium Pro round out the features on what may be the best deal of the MSI Spring Sale.
Best of the best: MEG 342C QD OLED
£1299 > £799 (39% off, save up to £500)
Got some Spring savings to splash on some premium gaming hardware? Good for you, because MSI's flagship OLED display is a worthy investment with specs that'll futureproof you for years to come. At 34", this ultrawide 21:9 4K OLED display with 175Hz refresh rate will really make your games pop with radiant colours. The True Black 400 HDR tech places it in the big league of HDR, with a dynamic range, rise time and black levels that are multiples better than what you get with already-excellent DisplayHDR displays.
The MEG 342C sports a virtually nonexistent response time of 0.03ms, which will give you the edge over the vast majority of players in the online space, and as with all MSI OLED panels, it comes with a 3-year Burn-in Warranty (see here for more information).
As an added bonus, if you buy any QD-OLED MSI monitor before April 30 and review it at one of the selected online stores, you'll get an £80 Steam voucher to spend on whatever game you want!
Best of the rest
MSI's deals aren't just restricted to the official site, and you can also nab yourself a bargain in their Amazon Spring Sale. Grab the MPG Gungnir 300R Airflow Case in White at a 19% discount (£130), for instance, and fit it out with the MSI MAG CoreLiquid E240 White Liquid Cooler at 18% off (£95).
The MEG Z690 Unify is as great a motherboard as money can buy, and is 18% off in the Spring Sale (£205), while the RTX 4060 Ti Gaming X Slim 8G is an affordable way to get onboard with the latest generation of Nvidia GPUs, and is currently a steal at 14% off (£386).
The Amazon Spring Sale ends March 25, so better get in there quick. If you want to keep up with everything from MSI's lab over the long run, follow MSI on Facebook, X (Twitter), and Instagram.
