Panel	—	26.5-inch flat QD-OLED; 3840 × 2160; 10-bit (1.07 billion colours) In QD-OLED, light from a blue OLED layer is converted to red and green by quantum dots; because each pixel emits its own light, blacks switch off completely. 4K in the 27-inch class gives very sharp text at about 166 ppi. MSI
Refresh and response	—	240 Hz (adaptive range 48–240 Hz); 0.03 ms GtG 4K 240 Hz is reached over DisplayPort 2.1a or HDMI 2.1. 0.03 ms is pixel transition time, not total input lag. MSI
Adaptive sync	—	G-SYNC Compatible; AMD FreeSync Premium Pro Matching refresh rate to the GPU frame rate reduces tearing and stutter. MSI
Brightness and HDR	—	SDR 250 nits; HDR 450 nits at 10% APL, 1000 nits peak at 3% APL; DisplayHDR True Black 400 1000 nits is reached only when a very small part of the screen is bright; OLED brightness drops markedly on a full white screen. True Black 400 is the VESA tier for OLEDs that also measures black level. MSI
Colour and contrast	—	DCI-P3 99%, Adobe RGB 98%, sRGB 138% (CIE 1976); 1,500,000:1 typical contrast 138% of sRGB means the panel can oversaturate standard content; use the sRGB mode for accurate colour. MSI
USB and audio	—	2 × USB-A 5 Gbit/s; 1 × USB-B 5 Gbit/s (upstream); headphone out; no built-in speakers MSI
KVM and multi-view	—	KVM; PiP and PbP KVM shares a keyboard and mouse connected to the monitor between two computers. PiP shows one source in a small window, PbP shows two sources side by side. MSI
Stand and mounting	—	Tilt -5°/20°; swivel ±30°; pivot ±90°; height 0–110 mm; VESA 100 × 100 mm MSI
Power	—	Internal power board; 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz No external power brick is needed. MSI
Size and weight	—	With stand 610 × 242 × 422 mm, without stand 610 × 69 × 356 mm; net 8.1 kg MSI
