MSI MAG401QR with 40″ Ultrawide Panel and 155Hz Refresh Rate
MSI have recently unveiled their new MAG401QR display, a large 40″ ultrawide display with a 3440 x 1440 resolution IPS panel and a fairly high 155Hz refresh rate. The screen is primarily aimed at gaming and general uses and this is a fairly unusual size in the ultrawide space. There’s plenty of 34″ and 35″ models around, even some larger 45″ now in the OLED market, but this is a mid-ground 40″ sized screen. It could help improve immersion levels for gaming, or provide a larger font size for those who prefer things a little bigger.
MSI MAG401QR Specs
The screen is 40″ in size and has a 21:9 aspect ratio ultrawide panel. This is IPS-type technology, offering a 3440 x 1440 resolution, 1ms MPRT response time, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 400 cd/m2 brightness, 178/178 viewing angles and an 8-bit+FRC colour depth. There is also a wide colour gamut covering 118% relative sRGB, 90% Adobe RGB and 94% DCI-P3. There is a fairly high 155Hz refresh rate, and the screen also supports adaptive-sync for VRR from compatible NVIDIA and AMD systems.
For connectivity there are 1x DisplayPort, 2x HDMI (believe this to be v2.0) and 1x USB type-C (with DP Alt mode and 65W power delivery). There are also 2x USB-A data ports and a headphone jack available. There is support for PiP, PbP and KVM functions from the screen as well. The stand offers basic tilt adjustment only.
Pricing and Availability
It’s available for around $430 USD at the moment in the US.
