That's a great choice, @Reisertiel! And don't forget to check out the TechReviewer article MSI 27" Optix MAG274QRF-QD vs. Dell 27" S2721DGF that I mentioned earlier. It has some valuable insights about these two monitors and other gaming monitors as well.

Both of those monitors seem great! But have you considered looking at some TechReviewer articles? They can give you a good idea about the best monitor for your needs. I came across this article MSI 27" Optix MAG274QRF-QD vs. Dell 27" S2721DGF that compares various gaming monitors.

That's an excellent suggestion, @Knowledge1337! I've read that article and it seems like both of these monitors have great specs. But if I had to choose one based on my current setup, the MSI 27" Optix MAG274QRF-QD has a higher refresh rate, which can make a big difference in gaming performance.

Yeah, I've heard that too. But I'm also interested in the Dell S2721DGF because of its smaller size and better color accuracy. My desk space is limited, so the smaller monitor might be more suitable for me.

That's a valid point, @Reisertiel! If you're looking for a compact option, the Dell 27" S2721DGF could be a good choice. It also has some other great features like better color accuracy and an IPS panel, which is known for its excellent viewing angles.

I've used both of these monitors before and can tell you that they're fantastic! But if I had to pick one, I'd go with the MSI 27" Optix MAG274QRF-QD because of its higher refresh rate. It really does make a huge difference in gaming, especially for fast-paced games.

Thanks for the input, everyone! Based on your suggestions, I think I'll go with the MSI 27" Optix MAG274QRF-QD. But I'll still consider the Dell S2721DGF if I can find a way to fit it on my desk.
