MSI Debuts the First 1000R AI Curved Gaming™ Monitor

MSI ARTYMIS Series Now Available

CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif. – February 1, 2021 – MSI, the world’s leading manufacturer for true gaming hardware, has launched the first 1000R AI Gaming™ Monitor – the MSI ARTYMIS Series, expanding hardware possibilities for gamers globally.

The MPG Artymis 343CQR is the latest 1000R curved gaming monitor, providing a truly immersive experience with less image distortion. 1000R is the perfect curve for gamers who sit about 1 meter/3 feet from their display. The curvature rating of 1000R matches the natural vision of the human eye, resulting in an ergonomic setup, less eye strain and faster reaction times while gaming.

In addition to 1000R, MSI added many exclusive AI features to the MSI ARTYMIS Series. The first product within the series, MPG ARTYMIS 343CQR, comes equipped with 3440 x1440 resolution, 1ms response time, and HDR400 to fully utilize the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3000 Series. The 34-inch monitor has a high-speed refresh rate of 165Hz, eliminating screen delay time and presenting an extremely smooth screen presentation.

The ARTYMIS Series name is derived from Ἄρτεμις, in Greek mythology. Also known as Luna (Goddess of the New Moon) and the Goddess of Hunting, this majestic and dignified goddess is often depicted carrying a silver bow and riding a silver cart pulled by a deer with golden antlers.

Now available for purchase at the MSI Store, Newegg and Amazon with an MSRP of $899.99, the MPG ARTYMIS 343CQR has the perfect curve to enhance your gaming experience.

The Perfect Curve – 1000R

Perfect for Human Eye Curvature

The MSI ARTYMIS series is the most curved 1000R gaming monitor on the market. It perfectly fits the curvature of the human eye so that you can see the entire screen without any fatigue. The curved surface design can also enhance the sense of coverage and immersion so that you will not be disturbed by the outside environment while gaming.

Combined with AI to Create A New Way of Gaming

OptixScope – MSI’s Exclusive Patented Design

OptixScope is a built-in and patented aiming magnifier feature that provides eight-stage zooming and has programmable shortcut keys to quickly switch magnification. OptixScope also automatically reduces your mouse DPI at higher magnification. The screen can maintain operation so that any weapon can become a sniper rifle and accurately hit enemies from a distance.

Smart Brightness

The Gaming OSD App allows you to control your monitor display under a software window. You can customize display settings for different software in the app and it will automatically apply your presets once you start using the software. The Gaming OSD App also allows you to use in-game hotkeys to adjust display settings at a moments notice.

Sound Tune

Eliminating all obstacles to communication, the ARTYMIS series has a built-in noise reduction microphone that eliminates noise through AI calculations, helping to improve communication between teammates with clearer sound quality.

MSI Console Mode

The MPG ARTYMIS 343CQR is designed to natively support next-gen consoles, automatically accepting 4K signals on a QHD monitor and HDR simultaneously. This delivers the best experience to gamers looking to  enjoy both PC and console games from the same display.

Night Vision AI

Whether your entire screen is dark, or just a few portions have heavy shadows. Let the world’s first smart black tuner brighten your day by bringing out the fine details in dark areas. Adjust the details of the dark areas and maintain the details of the bright areas through AI calculation, making the picture bright but not overly exposed.
