My son has been printing nonstop. We like it so far. Will post another video soon going over how to print, showing some of our initial prints and a general review of the printer. Stay tuned.

Thank you for the good questions. Below are answers to both questions. I hope they are helpful to you. 1. The monitor has a glossy coating. When it is off, I can see my reflection in it. However, due to the high brightness of the monitor, when it is on, glare is not visible. 2. Manual pixel refresh is available only on later firmware versions. For example, it is available for firmware version 1007.1. For information on how to update your firmware please see the following video. czcams.com/video/DLkAlntNUDc/video.html . 3. The following may also be helpful to you. In addition to pixel refresh you have other options to prevent screen burn in. If you have an earlier version of the firmware and do not wish to update to a newer firmware, please see the following video for other options. czcams.com/video/s5qPj8koxSw/video.html

@@JoeAlisando I’m currently using last year’s version of the oled g9 with the smart tv feature, g95SC. In the menu system there’s no pixel refresh option found anywhere. Is that in one of the firmware updates

@@VeggieMight101 I do not own the G95SC so cannot comment on the firmware update. For G93SC, updating the firmware from 1004.0 to 1007.1 added the pixel refresh option. Check your firmware for updates and if there is one, it may help to execute the update.

Thank you for the positive feedback. Glad it was helpful!

Hi, it comes with a graphics card anti-sag bracket which can help support a graphics card. For a full list of hardware that comes with the case please look up the user manual page 2. For installation instructions of the anti-sag bracket see page 11 of the user manual. There are also optional kits you can purchase that will allow you to change the orientation of the GPU but those will cost extra. See page 12 of the user manual for the optional kits.

Glad it helped!

I believe it may be possible with an adapter that plugs into a thunderbolt or USB port in the computer. I will attempt it and share the results in another video. Stay tuned!

Yes, the re-mineralization filter attached to the carafe is optional.

Thank you for the kind words.

Hi, the monitor in this video is not the smart monitor version and does not come with a remote.

That is a great question. I haven’t had any issues with oled burn in so far. I will soon prepare a separate video on what I do to prevent that issue. Stay tuned!

Glad it was helpful!

If you install two ram sticks instead of four, do you still experience the same issue with the RAM speed? Have you checked your RAM for issues using MemTest86 as shown here czcams.com/video/6sxf25WGuJk/video.html ?

@@JoeAlisando When i tested it with 2 ram sticks, I was getting 5200hertz with out XMP as that wouldn't boot when i turned it on either in bios, if i remember correctly i could never reach 6400hertz

Thank you for the answer. If MemTest86 does not show any issues with the RAM sticks, I would update the BIOS. For more information on updating the BIOS, see the following video czcams.com/video/fB5tFFb8fyo/video.html .

​@@JoeAlisando So finally got round to updating my bios as flashing can be quite daunting but it must have been the cause of XMP not work with 4 sticks. Now with BIOS update 7D86vA4 its running XMP with 4x32gb at 5200hz with no issues, Not tried running higher as my sticks are each 6400Hz, But might experiment more but least XMP works and its a higher hertz thanks for all your videos on the MSI MEG Z790 ACE MAX :D

I am glad to hear the bios update fixed the issue and thank you for sharing the outcome.

Under normal circumstances, the filters do not need to be taken out of the machine during startup.

@@JoeAlisando my water still looks a bit murky/slightly dark after 7 changes of water. Is there a reason why

@@Loveisabrilliantlight on the LCD display on the machine, what do the in and out numbers say? For me the in is typically between 310-490 and the out is typically between 8-11.

@@JoeAlisando the in ranges from 350 to 480 and the out is from 30 to 60. Also I’m getting water from a faucet that already has a house water filter (not a RO) and I’m surprised at the number being that high

@@Loveisabrilliantlight I agree 30 to 60 out is too high. Try running a few more cycles and if the out numbers don’t consistently drop to less than 20, contact the manufacturer for support.

Hi, thank you for the question. The first wash is not going to produce water. It fills your filters with water as they come pretty much empty. Make sure to let the first wash run all the way through even if there is no water coming out. It may seem like the machine stopped but let it keep going. Once the first wash is complete, discard the water from the reservoir and add fresh water. The second wash should have water coming out. See the video at 9:50 for an example of the first second and third washes.

Thank you for the kind words. Glad you liked it.

That is very strange. For me the cover came off pretty easily. Did you make sure to press the release button before trying to remove the cover. If so, I would recommend contacting the manufacturer to see if they can help.

Hi Adrian, thank you for the question. Which cable are you using to connect the monitor to your PC? Did the cable come in the box with the monitor or did you get it through a third party? If you got it through a third party can you please share the manufacturer and other details so I can look it up?

The order of updating bios vs drivers does not matter. For a new build, I update the bios if needed, then install windows and then install the drivers. The default window drivers can also work so the driver updates from msi are optional. You can download the drivers from the msi website one at a time and install as needed.

Thank you for the questions. See below for a list of answers to each question. 1. The display always powers off correctly for me, and the red LED light turns on when the display is powered off. Also, in regard to the power off button from the menu, for me it always turns off the display after which the red LED light turns on automatically. 2. The blinking red LED means the monitor is still on but there is no source signal. For example, when you turn off the PC the source signal goes away so the display turns black with the red light blinking. If you were to turn your PC back on, the signal returns and the monitor will automatically receive the signal without you needing to press the physical power button to turn it on. 3. Not sure if it will help but I also have the automatic turn off display option selected under Menu -> System -> Off Timer Plus -> Off Timer -> On. I have it set so the display turns off in 1 hour if it does not receive a signal.

@@JoeAlisando What's your firmware version?

The software version I have installed is M-C9349GGAA-1004.0

@@JoeAlisando Same version. Yesterday, coincidentally, for the first time, the monitor refused to switch off. Held down the menu button like 4 times and each time the menu kept coming up. Had to unplug the power cord. First time I have encountered a monitor that is such a hassle to power off. Maybe it is becoming sentient. 😄 There is a newer firmware version; 1006 but I read users having problems with intermittent black screens occuring on that version. Although there is a way to downgrade the firmware by renaming the firmware file with a higher number tricking the monitor that it is installing a newer version. So there's that piece of mind if I feel like updating.

I am sorry to hear you are having so many issues with your monitor. The issues may be a hardware related. Have you tried contacting Samsung customer support? How long have you owned the monitor?

Thank you for sharing. When you use an HDMI cable through the HDMI1 port does the display work?

How do you turn that on?

@@mrbrightside3771from the nvidia new app

Can you provide some more detail on the problem you are experiencing (i.e. what happens when you experience the issue)? Also, can you provide more detail on the components of your build? Which BIOS version do you have installed? Which slots do you have your ram installed in? Please see the following video for instructions on how to diagnose if there are any issues with the RAM hardware. czcams.com/video/6sxf25WGuJk/video.html

@@JoeAlisando sorry I meant to say does this board allow ddr5 2x48 96gb 6400mt/s cl32 or will it not run

@SilentWhLsper it should work. Also make sure to activate XMP in the BIOS so the RAM overclocks to the max speed. For more details on the board specs, visit the msi website. www.msi.com/Motherboard/MEG-Z790-ACE-MAX/Specification

Thank you for the kind words. The button for accessing the monitor menu is in the back of the monitor. Please see the following video which shows the location of the button and much more about this monitor. czcams.com/video/8lawVjheCk4/video.html

Glad it was helpful!

Glad it helped!

Hi BMAR92, the monitor supports HDR10+. You can turn it on and off as shown in the following video. czcams.com/video/x8SQ5Ji-gYA/video.html Please see the following link for the full specifications of the monitor. www.samsung.com/ca/monitors/gaming/odyssey-oled-g9-g93sc-49-inch-240hz-curved-dual-qhd-ls49cg932snxza/

@@JoeAlisandothanks for letting me know. Regarding your video link, it not showing anything specific about what type of HDR supports or how to enable HDR from the monitor menu, also g sync from nvidia control panel. It will be nice to have a video about all this information as well, more details about menu and what monitor offers. I can’t find anywhere videos about it. For example, in this video you are not showing anything specific about HDR in menu. Is just fast forward.

Thank you for the feedback. I will work on putting a video together that goes in more depth regarding those topics.

Be careful about keeping discord open for too long, close the window when you're not using it, you may suffer burn in

have been using this monitor for roughly 9 months now with some pretty disgusting screen time between work and gaming anywhere from 9 to 13 hours some days. Still no signs of burn in for mine. YMMV though ofc. I suggest grabbing wallpaper engine from steam and setting it to screen save after X time as well as having windows sleep after a half hour to hour.

Make sure your cables are compatible. If you are using the cables that came with the monitor and you still can’t get 240 Hz refresh rate it may be that your graphics card needs to be upgraded.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video. The graphics card I have is MSI Suprim GeForce RTX 4090. czcams.com/video/bEqjjufLQ3Y/video.html

I am sorry to hear you are having issues with the M2_1 cover removal. When removing the cover for the M2_1 slot, I didn’t think it took too much effort. Make sure to fully depress the side button on the left before pushing the cover up.

Thank you for the questions. You do not need the older cpu to use the board. I would recommend buying the 14900k, assembling your PC, using a different PC to download the latest BIOS update, updating your BIOS to the latest version and then installing windows. If you want to activate XMP, you will need to do so in the BIOS as shown in the following video. MSI MEG Z790 ACE MAX Fixing Incorrect RAM Speed czcams.com/video/DwPOxjr-bZQ/video.html

@@JoeAlisando You're goated thank youu!!

To boot up and get the bios update installed for the mb to accept the 14900k

Thank you for the question. You do not need another cpu to use the board. I would recommend buying the 14900k directly, assembling your PC, using a different PC to download the latest BIOS update, updating your BIOS to the latest version and then installing windows. That is what I did the first time around before doing any subsequent bios updates. I hope this helps.

@@JoeAlisando THANK YOUU! You're goated

I would recommend to only use the BIOS for your motherboard. Z790 Ace and Z790 Ace Max are two different motherboards, so I would not mix the bios between the two.

For more in depth instructions on how to install and remove the graphics card, please see the following video. czcams.com/video/yN_PQnd6Mmk/video.html

XMP profile is enabled. Please see video at 1:17 for XMP configuration in the bios.

And not 59.8?

Please try updating to the latest BIOS version. The following video goes over how to update the BIOS. BIOS Update for MSI MEG Z790 ACE MAX Motherboard czcams.com/video/fB5tFFb8fyo/video.html

Glad it helped!

Thank you for sharing. When you get to trying the method in this video, if it still does not work, you may want to see the following video which shows how to check if your RAM is working properly. RAM Error Checks and Benchmarking Using MemTest86 czcams.com/video/6sxf25WGuJk/video.html

@@JoeAlisando gonna try it m8 thx a lot have a great day best regards and much love from Türkiye 🇹🇷❤️

Thank you again. Most of the settings should work on the i9-13900K as well. The only difference that I can think of is that you may need to select a different setting for CPU Lite Load.

Thank you for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you for the comment. I will be making another video focusing on undervolting and the challenges associated with the i9-14900k.

Hi fahad5940, I am sorry you are having issues with the m.2 cover. Please see the following video for instructions on removing and installing the cover: czcams.com/video/kVuEwlVEhM8/video.html .
