In relation to PC gaming screens, there’s no such factor as too quick. Whereas standard screens hit the 500Hz refresh mark a few years in the past, fancy-pants OLED screens haven’t fairly reached such speeds but. MSI intends to take action someday in 2025, together with a few different OLED firsts introduced earlier than CES 2025.
That monitor is the MPG 272QR QD-OLED X50 (woof!) with its 27-inch panel and 1440p decision, 0.03ms response time, and that blistering 500Hz refresh price. Oddly, MSI is positioning this display screen for “all the mainstream gamers out there.” Who considers themselves “mainstream” whereas hitting 500 frames per second at 1440p?
No worth has been talked about but for this monitor. Different specs are fairly sparse within the announcement, however there’s a full listing you possibly can browse on this promotional web page. Highlights embody DisplayPort 2.1a help and USB-C with 98 watts of Energy Supply.
Elsewhere in MSI’s pre-CES press push is the MPG 272URX, a 27-inch OLED that pushes past the same old decision with its 4K panel, although you’ll need to make do with “only” 240Hz of refresh. There’s additionally the MPG 322URX, a 32-inch 1440p design that additionally hits 240Hz. Each of them have help for DisplayPort 2.1a.
It’s massive and it’s white! And possibly very costly. Please resist the urge to show that into some type of innuendo.

The MPG 321URXW is one other 32-inch mannequin, billed as “a premium gaming monitor with a stunning silver-white design.” In line with this promo web page, it has a 4K decision at 240Hz and USB-C enter with 90 watts of Energy Supply, however be aware that the DisplayPort is the older 1.4 customary. As traditional, costs and retail launch dates haven’t been shared — I’d count on to see them by the center of 2025.
