MSI has just revealed its new MPG 242R X60N gaming monitor, rocking a 24.1-inch "Rapid TN" panel at 1080p and an ultra-fast 600Hz refresh rate and 0.5ms response time.
The new MSI MPG 242R X60N gaming monitor will have a native 1920 x 1080 resolution joined by its 600Hz refresh rate, supporting adaptive sync for VRR, and will fall under the AMD "FreeSync Premium Pro" certification. MSI will include its in-house Gaming Intelligence app, and support for AI Vision and AI Crosshair, because it wouldn't be an MSI gaming monitor release in 2025 without something AI included.
