The MAG 274QPF X32 brings esports-level refresh rates to 1440p without OLED prices. Its 27-inch Rapid IPS panel runs at 2560 x 1440 and up to 320 Hz over DisplayPort 1.4a or either of its two HDMI 2.1 ports, with a 0.5 ms (GtG, min.) response time, FreeSync Premium and G-Sync Compatible support. MSI rates it at 95% DCI-P3 and VESA DisplayHDR 400.
The stand is better than usual in this price range: 130 mm of height adjustment, tilt, swivel and pivot. To use 320 Hz you need a graphics card that pushes that many frames at 1440p, which mostly means competitive shooters. In dark scenes an IPS panel shows its limits next to OLED, and DisplayHDR 400 is an entry-level HDR badge. There is no USB-C and no USB hub.

What refresh rate really changes, why your graphics card decides how much of it you see, when 240 or 320 Hz is worth it, and what dual-mode 4K and 5K screens do.
