When people talk about large screens, the product that usually comes to mind is a TV. You can easily get a 55-inch 4K TV for around RM3000, a great deal if you're trying not to spend too much. But what if you need something more suitable for a desktop PC setup yet have the quality to excel in games and productivity? In my opinion, the option you'll want is an ultra-wide OLED monitor.

MSI also provided two extra plastic panels to cover the monitor mounting section and the cable outlets. The monitor stand also has a cutout for routing cables through. These are great for people who love to keep their setup neat, as it makes cable management easier. Once the monitor was assembled, I just plugged in the 3-pin power and an HDMI , and voila! Of course, there are more output ports, but more on them later.

Of course, there's always the option of connecting the monitor to a wall mount or a monitor arm since it's VESA compatible . These options allow you to use it in portrait orientation and have more freedom in positioning the screen. But even if you want to use it as a primary screen in a standard frontal position, the monitor arm is still my recommended option for this display. You won't even need one with a high weight capacity, as the screen is just 6.5kg without the stand and feet.

However, I won't recommend doing that. Games look amazing in fullscreen, so you won't want to play with a small window. The MEG 342C QD-OLED delivers a near OLED level of visual quality, which means excellent contrast and colour gamuts . The colours really pop in the game, and dark areas look like true black. The photos I took doesn't give it much justice. But trust me, the monitor actually does really well in the colour performance department.

Besides that, the ultra-widescreen view doesn't apply universally. While I had no problems with the general Windows 11 usage, games often had some parts that wouldn't render in the 21:9 aspect ratio. For example, most menus in Cyberpunk 2077 would keep the standard aspect ratio, resulting in black bars on the sides. Fortunately, the game rendered regular gameplay properly, so it's not a big issue.

Gaming is definitely what you want to do with this monitor anyway. Playing games on the MEG 342C QD-OLED is an amazing experience. Sure, it's not quite the number one gaming monitor even to my untrained eyes. But the colours and contrast are more than just good enough, so games look incredible when rendered on the screen. What's better is the ultra-wide aspect ratio. Combine it with a maxed out field of view in games, and I get a very wide view of what's happening on screen.
