So my friend got a MSI MPG 271QRX QD-OLED
He streams/games long hours.

Problem is the monitor pops up with OLED care after 16 hours and is very obstructive.
Power cycling doesnt help and having a popup mid game is disruptive AF.
It doesnt go away untill he does the OLED care scan which takes 7 or so mins.

I got in contant with MSI and they say they have no plans to disable it completely yet there are many forums complaining about this.

Is there a monitor of a similar spec/ cost out there with no disruptive popups?

Well, on my XG27AQDMG the pop-up message can be set to every 2, 4 or 8 hours, but can also be disabled completely. Also, the pop-up only shows for 5 seconds, it's in the bottom right corner, and you can dismiss it without it forcing you to run the cleaning cycle. Basically the monitor will never run a cleaning cycle while it's powered on automatically without consent, unless you either manually do it or confirm the pop-up.

Running the pixel cleaning cycle lasts exactly 4 minutes and 12 seconds (which is about the length of a bathroom break.)

It appears after 16 hours? perfect timing. He can go to sleep whilst it runs. Or just run it at the beginning of the day and that way it'll run again at the end of the day.

If he can't take a several minute break whilst it runs then I think the 'problem' is lack of breaks or sleep. Sorry for the sarcasm but this is such a first world problem.
