The display has a contrast ratio of 1200 to 1 and peak brightness of 350 nits or 400 in SDR and HDR modes respectively. DisplayPort 1.2a, USB-C, HDMI 2.0b, USB-B and USB-A connectors are provided for connecting third-party devices.

MSI's second new product has the catalog number G321Q. It does not support VESA HDR, and brightness in SDR mode is reduced to 300 nits at peak. Coverage of the sRGB, Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 color ranges is 123%, 90% and 93% respectively. The monitor is also left without a quantum dot panel.
