If you’ve been holding out for a stellar deal on an ultrawide OLED gaming monitor, now is your chance. For the next three days, or until stocks deplete (which is likely to happen quickly), Woot is offering a 34-inch MSI ultrawide OLED monitor for an exceptional $500.
Be aware, though, that this monitor is factory reconditioned (i.e., refurbished), so it comes with a shorter 180-day warranty compared to the standard one-year coverage. Despite this, the MSI MAG 341CQP offers an impressive array of features that make it a strong contender for gamers. It boasts a 3440×1440 resolution, which is effectively a 27-inch 1440p panel stretched to a 21:9 aspect ratio, enhancing peripheral vision—a key advantage in gaming. The monitor’s 1800R curve, 175Hz refresh rate, and rapid 0.03ms response time are tailored for an immersive gaming experience.
Additional features include USB-C video with 15-watt Power Delivery (suitable for tablets but not laptops), DVI, HDMI, and two USB-A ports with a software KVM switch. The monitor also comes with features to mitigate OLED burn-in, such as auto-detection of static elements like taskbars and logos. Firmware updates can be performed via USB, and it supports VESA mounting for flexibility with monitor arms.
While the limited 6-month warranty might give you pause, this price is the lowest we’ve ever seen for an OLED monitor of this size, offering a $200 discount off previous best prices. Woot provides free shipping for Amazon Prime members, and a flat $5 shipping fee for everyone else. If you’re considering this deal, act fast—inventory is likely to move quickly.
