24" 144Hz IPS gaming monitor

The MSI G242L E14 is a 23.8 inch Full HD display built for competitive gaming. Its IPS panel delivers 16.7 million colours across a 178 degree viewing angle. A 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time keep fast motion sharp. The monitor targets players who want fluid visuals without moving to a higher resolution.

144Hz FreeSync adaptive sync limit

Adaptive Sync matches the panel refresh rate to the graphics card output up to 144Hz. This prevents tearing and stutter when frame rates vary inside that window. If the GPU pushes frames above 144Hz the monitor cannot display the extra frames. The 1ms MPRT figure applies with overdrive active and may not represent every transition.

HDMI CEC console check and stand space

Verify that your console or PC can output 1080p at 120Hz or 144Hz over HDMI for the high-refresh modes. The thin bezel design leaves minimal front clearance so confirm desk depth for the stand footprint. HDMI CEC lets a connected console wake the screen but requires CEC support on both devices.

Anti-Flicker Less Blue Light Pro eye comfort

Anti-Flicker technology reduces invisible screen flicker that can cause fatigue during long sessions. Less Blue Light Pro filters short wavelength blue light while preserving colour accuracy. Both features operate in hardware and do not need driver installation. They are active across all supported refresh rates and input sources.
