Rattling, it’s laborious to cease myself from shopping for a few of these OLED gaming screens on sale for Black Friday. I’m making an attempt to carry out for an additional 12 months, nevertheless it’s not simple with greater and greater reductions coming in. Take this 49-inch MSI OLED ultrawide, for instance: it’s simply $799.99 on Amazon, a stable THOUSAND BUCKS lower than another 49-inch OLEDs.
The MPG 491CQP is a dual-QHD design, most likely utilizing the identical 49-inch, 5120×1440 panel as Gigabyte’s various. At 144Hz refresh and .03ms response, it’s rather less zippy than some related OLED screens, however for those who’re pushing that a lot decision I doubt you’ll be maxing out its framerate on any 3D sport launched in the previous couple of years.
Funnily sufficient, this monitor has precisely twice the decision of the most affordable 27-inch OLED in our Black Friday monitor roundup, and it’s precisely twice the value. Neat! It’s additionally cheaper than a 45-inch LG mannequin that has a far decrease decision.
Its connections are spectacular, too. On prime of the standard DisplayPort and double HDMI, you get USB-C with 90 watts of charging — that’s greater than sufficient juice even for a beefy gaming laptop computer. The monitor additionally contains tow USB-A ports and a KVM change for rapidly swapping between a number of machines and even sport consoles. However the very best a part of the spec checklist is perhaps MSI’s 3-year guarantee on the OLED panel.
This monitor is $300 off the retail worth, and unlikely to remain that manner after Black Friday. The truth is, I wouldn’t be stunned if Amazon ran out of inventory — you possibly can strive shopping for it from Finest Purchase (pickup obtainable in some shops) or direct from MSI if it does.
