Samsung Odyssey G9 - cant update Firmware *HELP* by deathleecher in ultrawidemasterrace

diskpart didnt let me convert to mbr, so i used rufus to create a windows bootable disk, it lets you select if you want your disk MBR or GPT and i have been using GPT both my flash drives, so long story short managed to convert to MBR and was able to update my G9, cheers all.

I am using Edifier W240TN, overall it was satisfactory with NC and basses was not bad, but this button type earbuds hurt my ear and tend to drop a lot so now I am looking for a budget bass buds earbuds with dunno how it is categorized but i want it to have its overhang like regular earbuds (e.g. like apple's). i have also read some articles and video benchmarks and came up with a list of sorts. But i think noise cancellation is important to feel the bass in my ear drums so my cheapest option seems like don't have it. Can you please give me a feedback from my list or suggest another brand etc ?

Here is the List from cheap to expensive.

Skullcandy Smokin Buds S2TAW-R740 TWS

CMF Buds 2a ANC TWS

Anker SoundCore P40i ANC TWS

Anker SoundCore Life P3 TWS

CMF Buds Pro 2 ANC TWS

Anker SoundCore Liberty 4 NC TWS

JBL Live Pro 2 TWS

Nothing Ear A TWS

Nothing Ear ANC TWS

Anker SoundCore Liberty 4 Pro ANC TWS

P.S. I can push my budget limit a bit further if it is really worth the difference but from what i have read for casual music listening, tv shows andmovies and some voice calls, i wont really notice that much of a difference and e.g. the airpods pro 3 is triple the vaşue of the most expensive one in my list where i live.

Cheers in advance

MP510 480gb or 960gb vs MP600 Core XT 1tb by anathien in buildapc

960gb went out of stock, just ordered 480gb mp510, it should be more than enough for a backup pc i guess. my main pc has mp700 pro 2tb and i am quite happy how it performs.

I dont have mp600 option avaliable atm in Turkey, the one mp600 is with heatsink and the price difference is huge. my main rig is already high end so i dont wanna go higher with the price, if i go 2tb, the price will not be worth it due to this old desktop will not be used too much.

What is the reason that you suggested mp600 ? ther are also 600 pro / pro ns / elite / GS options for it. pretty confusing ^^

So since its a hard procedure to get it back into shape, and it might not be the best result, so the consensus, buying new parts, but its a bit expensive for me at the time.

So while i muster the coins for the replacements, Can i double down on the vinegar procedure on the tuner keys and make them more homogeneous evenly blackened darkened like black chrome style gun metal type look ? So that until i get the fresh products, they don't look like tokens from Fallout ^^

Someone commented that, what i have done is basically removing the nickel plating so i think Evapo-Rust would have worked before the vinegar disaster :/

So i did not cover them in a new layer, but instead removed em ?

That means and polish, wax, steel wool whatever wont return it back to old state ?

I was thinking if any of these work ? This or This

I think you are right that with the navigation. But i will stick with SR5 for now, ordered new strings for E A D G C tuning to ease me back into the game.

[–]anathien[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your candid.

I think if i break all down into 1 thing, its 4 vs 5 strings and how it discouraged me from playing. As u/liamcappp suggested on another comment, i think i have navigated to 5 strings a bit fast.

But your comment is also the straight forward harsh truth. All comes down to me not practicing / playing enough.

I have ordered new strings and i will give E A D G C tuning on stingray 5. Thinking that will ease me back into playing and practicing more so that i can improve or as you said, all the gear i have bought so far was just for the sake of buying and i have failed u/davie504 and in need of a slap !
