MSI MPG 491CQPX QD-OLED Curved 5K TV

MSI MPG 491CQPX QD-OLED (often marketed as the 49-inch QD-OLED Curved model in the MPG series) is MSI’s flagship super-ultrawide gaming monitor, featuring a massive 49-inch curved QD-OLED panel with Dual QHD (DQHD) resolution—commonly referred to as “5K Dual QHD” in marketing due to its 5120 x 1440 pixel count (equivalent to two QHD screens side-by-side). Released in late 2024 with wider availability rolling into 2025-2026, it’s an upgraded “X” variant over the original MPG 491CQP, boasting a blistering 240Hz refresh rate for smoother gameplay.
