MSI MPG 491CQPX QD-OLED (49" DQHD 32:9 QD-OLED 240Hz)
The 240Hz sibling to the 491CQP: a 49-inch 5120x1440 32:9 QD-OLED with ClearMR 13000 motion clarity and HDMI 2.1, built for top-tier ultrawide immersion. A capable pro-tier panel for enthusiasts who want both the panoramic 32:9 canvas and the higher refresh; budget setups and shallow desks (a 49-inch curved panel needs real depth) should look elsewhere.
