Rattling, it’s arduous to cease myself from shopping for a few of these OLED gaming screens as we head into Black Friday. I’m attempting to carry out for an additional yr, however it’s not simple with greater and greater reductions coming in each day. Take this 49-inch MSI OLED ultrawide, for instance: it’s simply $799.99 on Amazon, a strong 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 different. At 144Hz refresh and .03ms response, it’s rather less zippy than some related OLED screens, however when you’re pushing that a lot decision I doubt you’ll be maxing out its framerate on any 3D recreation launched in the previous few years.
Funnily sufficient, this monitor has precisely twice the decision of the most cost effective 27-inch OLED in our Black Friday monitor roundup, and it’s precisely twice the worth. Neat! It’s additionally cheaper than a 45-inch LG mannequin that has a far decrease decision.
Its connections are spectacular, too. On high 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 swap for shortly swapping between a number of machines and even recreation consoles. However one of the 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 method after Black Friday. The truth is, I wouldn’t be shocked if Amazon ran out of inventory — you may attempt shopping for it from Greatest Purchase (pickup out there in some shops) or direct from MSI if it does.
