Panel26.5-inch flat QD-OLED; 2560 × 1440 (WQHD), 16:9; anti-reflection surface

In QD-OLED, light from a blue OLED layer is converted to red and green by quantum dots; because each pixel emits its own light, blacks turn fully off.

MSI
44.5-inch (113 cm) OLED, 800R curve; 3440 × 1440 (21:9); 0.303 mm pixel pitch

800R means the screen curves like part of a circle with an 800 mm radius, wrapping the edges around your view. At 45 inches, 1440p gives low pixel density: up close, text and fine detail look less sharp than on a 27-inch 1440p screen.

LG
Refresh rate240 Hz; Adaptive-Sync 48–240 Hz; 2560 × 1440 at 240 Hz over DisplayPort 1.4a, both HDMI 2.1 ports and USB-C (DP Alt)

240 Hz shows 240 frames per second for smooth, clear motion in fast games, provided the graphics card can produce that frame rate. Adaptive-Sync matches the display’s refresh to the card’s frame rate to prevent tearing.

Response time0.03 ms (GtG)

This is grey-to-grey transition time; OLED’s very fast transitions reduce motion blur, but it is not the same as total input lag.

MSI
—
Brightness and HDRSDR 250 nits (typical); HDR 450 nits at 10% window and 1000 nits peak at 3% window; VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400

OLED brightness falls as the lit area grows; 1000 nits appears only in very small bright highlights. True Black 400 certifies deep blacks with at least 400 nits HDR performance.

MSI
—
Colour10-bit (1.07 billion colours); 99.1% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB coverage (CIE 1976); ΔE ≤ 2

The wide gamut gives saturated colour in HDR and games; MSI states colour accuracy as ΔE ≤ 2.

MSI
DCI-P3 98.5% (typical, CIE1976), 90% minimum; 1.07 billion colours; factory calibrated; hardware calibration ready

Hardware calibration writes settings into the monitor itself through LG Calibration Studio, so the colour setup stays with the monitor even if the computer changes.

LG
Contrast and viewing angle1,500,000:1 (typical); 178° / 178° MSI—
Inputs2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4a, 1 × USB-C (DP Alt, 15 W PD), headphone out

The HDMI 2.1 inputs support WQHD 240 Hz on consoles at 48 Gbps (Console Mode). USB-C with 15 W only charges small devices such as phones and is not enough to charge a laptop; the port runs at USB 2.0 speed and there is no separate USB hub.

PiP / PbPPicture-in-picture and picture-by-picture support

Shows two sources at once: in PiP one is a small window, in PbP the two sit side by side.

OLED care and coolingMSI OLED Care 2.0; fanless design with graphene film and custom heatsink

OLED Care includes protection functions that reduce the risk of static images leaving marks (burn-in). With no fan, it makes no noise while running.

LG
Refresh rate and response time—240 Hz; 0.03 ms (GtG)

240 Hz shows very smooth motion when a game approaches 240 frames per second, which needs a powerful graphics card. 0.03 ms grey-to-grey describes the fast transition of OLED pixels; it is not total input lag.

LG
Brightness and contrast—200 cd/m² typical (160 minimum); typical contrast 1,500,000:1

LG’s typical brightness refers to a full-screen SDR image; with self-emissive OLED pixels black switches fully off, giving very high contrast.

LG
HDR and sync—HDR10, HDR effect; NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, AMD FreeSync Premium, VRR

G-SYNC Compatible and FreeSync Premium match the refresh rate to the graphics card’s frame rate to reduce tearing and stutter. HDR effect is a picture mode that adds HDR-like contrast to SDR content in software; it is not real HDR.

LG
Gaming features—Black Stabilizer, Dynamic Action Sync, crosshair, FPS counter, user-defined key, auto input switch

Black Stabilizer brightens detail in dark scenes; Dynamic Action Sync is a mode that reduces input lag.

LG
PiP—Picture-in-picture (PiP)

PiP shows a second input in a small window over the main picture, for example a PC and a console at the same time. LG does not list PbP (side-by-side split) for this model.

LG
Connections—2 × HDMI, 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (DSC), 1 × USB 3.0 upstream, 2 × USB 3.0 downstream, optical digital audio out (S/PDIF), 4-pole headphone out (sound + mic)

DSC (Display Stream Compression) compresses high-bandwidth signals such as 3440 × 1440 at 240 Hz over DisplayPort 1.4 without visible loss. With the USB upstream connected, the monitor’s USB-A ports act as a hub for the computer. A headset with a mic plugs into the 4-pole jack; DTS Headphone:X adds virtual surround. No built-in speakers are listed.

LG
Lighting and control—Hexagon RGB lighting on the back; remote control; OnScreen Control and Dual Controller software LG
Power—External adapter; 100–240 V; 129 W typical, 160 W max, under 0.5 W in sleep LG
