MSI will debut the MEG 342C based on a QD-OLED (3440x1440) display
The MEG 342C has a 34" curved ultrawide format and 3440 x 1440 resolution. It has a QD-OLED panel and 175Hz refresh rate. This offers exceptional black depth and contrast ratio, per-pixel dimming for HDR, and near-instant response rates.
MSI's new MEG 342C QD-OLED display is a direct competition to Dell's Alienware AW3423DW and Samsung's Odyssey G8QNB. The gaming monitor has a 34-inch QD-OLED screen with a native resolution of 3440 x 1440 and a super-smooth refresh rate of 175Hz. MSI's 1800R curvature incorporates MEG features including as Sound Tune AI noise cancellation, a KVM switch, smart crosshair, and an ambient light sensor. Alienware recently released the $1400 AW3423DW (with very identical specs: 34-inch 3440 x 1440 resolution + 175Hz refresh rate with a QD-OLED display). MSI hasn't released a price for their new MEG 342C QD-OLED gaming monitor, but we do know it features a 0.1ms GtG reaction time, a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, and a brightness of roughly 1000 nits for HDR content and gaming.
The screen will be labeled "QD Premium Color" by MSI and will support MSI True Color technology as well as the proprietary Premium Color Mode. This will contain a wide color gamut with coverage of 99.3 percent DCI-P3, 97.8 percent Adobe RGB, and 139.1 percent sRGB. It is also stated that the screen would come factory calibrated with a dE 2.
Aside from the built-in smart processor, which can be managed remotely via a smartphone, it also has Sound Tune AI noise cancellation. Smart Crosshair, an ambient light sensor, PBP/PIP support, and a built-in KVM capability are among the other features. We have seen no indication of connectivity possibilities at this time.

As I said earlier https://github.com/bp2008/BetterClearTypeTuner can solve/mitigate some of problems with fonts on WOLED and QD-OLED displays. Just give a try.

Definitely, not saying it's not an issue in all situations, just saying that i believe it to be mostly blown out of proportion in the same manner people often come here and say: ' Stay away from OLED, burn in burn in! ' without ever having owned one. But there are definitely situations where it could matter, no doubt.
Most of the times I can not hear at all my desktop keep this low rpm and undervolted ! If it is completely silent then is fine but people here complained about the sound .... Small fans are rather screamy

I can not disagree there , also depends if that fan kicks in only during gaming the I would have never heard it my self (except if the bearing goes bad and sound like a turbine :p) . In general I avoid failure points that are hard to spot and or fix is not easy. Is the same reason I prefer tower coolers over aio coolers even if the aio coolers look soooooo good !

Im sure I can wait 12-18 more months till this is affordable.

It really depends on what monitor and if it's gysnc ultimate.
That being said, i'm not sure i understand the complaint, as unless you have a completely silent desktop, your desktop is going to be louder. (Yes, i do have a monitor with a fan in it, no, i have literally never heard it)
