MSI has launched 49-inch MPG 491CQPX QD-OLED monitor, first announced in August. The model succeeds the 144Hz version launched in early 2024. The two monitors have a 49-inch screen with 5120×1440 resolution (essentially two 2K ​​screens side by side).
The new model also features a QD-OLED panel, but unlike the 491CQP with a 144Hz panel, it has a faster 240Hz refresh rate, a 0.03ms (gray-to-gray) response time and is more suitable for fast-paced games.
News and connections
For connections, the monitor includes an HDMI 2.1 port and a DisplayPort 1.4 port. MSI promises 98% AdobeRGB, 146% sRGB and 99% DCIP3 color gamut coverage, as well as a contrast ratio of up to 1,500,000:1. Furthermore, the screen has a curvature of 1800R.
It also offers DisplayHDR True Black 400 and VESA ClearMR 13000 and supports MSI’s OLED Care 2.0 technology, which reduces OLED burnout. Users also receive a 3-year warranty against OLED wear and tear, hoping they will receive a new monitor instead of a refurbished one like other companies.
Although there is no official listing for the monitor yet, some websites report that it may cost less than expected, reaching $1,099. The 144Hz predecessor is currently listed for $949 on MSI’s official US website.
