Buying call

Buy the MPG 491CQP if you want a huge, wraparound OLED for racing and flight sims: early reviews praised its stunning colors, smooth 240Hz performance, good port selection with USB-C charging, and a decent price for the size. Skip it if you mostly play games without 32:9 support. Its burn-in care routines can be annoying, burn-in is still a risk, and desktop use looked weaker than gaming.
