MSI PS341WU Prestige 5K 2K Monitor Review

Prestige P100 System

Alongside the PS341WU, as if that wasn’t enough to make you jealous, we were also sent the Prestige P100 9th. 9th because this particular model is utilising the 9th generation of the Intel CPUs, although a 10th Gen update is on the way. Just in case eight cores isn’t enough. Considering what the monitor looks like, it’s the perfect partner for a sleek, all-conquering desktop.

  
  

Focussing upon the P100 itself, the size of it is the first thing that smacks you around the face. Yes it’s gorgeously white, and the gold accents perfectly encapsulate those we saw on the back of the PS341WU, but it’s barely bigger than a modern console.

  

The sides are extremely well vented, as we would hope in such a tiny package. Anyone who has run a i9-9900K and RTX2080ti combo will know how power hungry they are, and the P100 Prestige is thinner than a supermodel.

  
  

At the front we find all the connectivity ports you want nearby if you’re a creative type. You’ve got to have somewhere to plug your Wacom into after all. The addition of a Type-C port lets you move your creative efforts around with the minimum of fuss as the FedEx bandwidth law is still in effect.

  

Has there ever been a power button you were more tempted to press? Sitting there as an island amongst a calm ocean. Ready at a push to deliver 8 cores of CPU performance and all the Tensor cores you can utilise.
