MSI has gone official with its QD-OLED Gaming monitor lineup which comes in five MPG & MAG flavors with a design for everyone.
We were expecting to see a range of QD-OLED gaming monitors from MSI based on a previous leak and it looks like the company has decided to lift the curtains off its lineup ahead of CES 2024 with a total of five new models for now and further additions down the road. Following are the models in MSI's QD-OLED family before moving into details of each specific variant.
MPG 491CQP QD-OLED, DQHD/144 (5120x1440p)
MAG 341CQP QD-OLED, UWQHD/175 (3440x1440p)
MPG 321UPX QD-OLED, UHD/240 (3840x2160p)
MAG 321UPX QD-OLED, UHD/240 (3840x2160p)
MPG 271QPX QD-OLED, QHD/360 (2560x1440p)
MAG 271QPX QD-OLED, QHD/360 (2560x1440p)
All MSI gaming displays will feature QD-OLED technology so you can expect the best display and viewing quality. First up, we have the 49" MSI MPG 491CQP QD-OLED design with a dual-QHD (5120 x 1440) curved (1800R) panel with 144Hz refresh rates, a brightness of 250 nits, DisplayHDR True Black 400 compliant and a USB Type-C 90W charging capability. The monitor also internally comes with a graphene film with a custom heatsink that allows for a fanless design.
MPG 491CQP QD-OLED Features
Next-Gen QD-OLED Panel – With stunning image quality and fast response time.
Fastest 0.03ms GtG response time and 144Hz refresh rate.
QD Premium Color – Ensures the color meets the market standard – Delta E≤2.
Incredible HDR visual – VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400.
Gaming Intelligence App – Create the perfect viewing settings for your games.
MSI OLED Care 2.0 – Reduced the risk of OLED image sticking / burn-in.
KVM – Control multiple devices via one set of keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
Console Mode – Provide HDMI 2.1 with a full 48 Gbps bandwidth.
Next up, we have the MSI MAG 341CQP which is a QD-OLED design with a UWQHD (3440 x 1440 / 1800R) panel featuring a 175Hz refresh rate and USB Type-C 15W charging. This monitor is said to be a more competitive variant of the MSI MEG 342C which is the higher-end variant that costs $999 US so we can expect a way lower price for the MPG model and all the while retaining the same panel specs minus the premium aesthetics of the MEG segment.
