If you’re looking to get into an OLED monitor in a big way, you’re probably bracing for a big hit to your wallet. But today Amazon’s closeout site, Woot, is offering a gigantic 49-inch ultrawide OLED gaming monitor for just $589.99. That’s less than half of what these monitors were going for just a year ago.

There are a couple of downsides that come with this big discount. First, this is a refurbished monitor, as is generally the case on Woot. Second, this slightly older model (MPG 491CQPS) has a 144Hz refresh rate, which is a good bit slower than the 240Hz that’s become standard at this point. You also get just a 180-day warranty, which is better than the typical 90-day on refurb electronics, but well below the 3-year panel warranty many OLED sellers (including MSI) offer now.

But there are a lot of reasons to like this thing, even beyond the price. At 5120×1440, it’s got the resolution of two 27-inch monitors crammed together on one big curved panel. You also get USB-C support with up to 90 watts of charging for gaming laptops, a built-in USB hub with a KVM switch, and even easy support for consoles.

This deal is good for another 10 days, unlike many of Woot’s single-day offerings. But it’s still limited by stock. And at a price this low, I bet it won’t stick around for very long.
