Our Verdict

MSI MPG 271QRX QD-OLED

Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3

The MSI MPG 271QRX QD-OLED and the Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3 are similar monitors that have the same panel and many of the same features. The biggest difference is that the Gigabyte has lower input lag regardless of firmware, as you need to update the MSI's firmware to get the lowest input lag. On the other hand, the MSI delivers more power over USB-C, which is great if you want to connect a laptop.
