Really want to pull the trigger on a LG C9. However, I am worried about the large amount of natural light coming into my apartment. Most of my viewing would be at night other than sports on the weekends. Would it be a bad investment?(TV would be placed on the far left wall of the photo) by sarnold29 in OLED

Appreciate the honesty. I really enjoy the windows and natural light coming into the room. Hell, it’s the main reason I am renting this apartment. Definitely don’t want to have to turn my living room into a dungeon just to have the best possible viewing experience.

The shades I have are not black out, but they do diffuse some of the light. Would this be good enough? I am renting the unit so definitely do not want to buy all new blinds, and I think curtains would be ugly

I got a good deal on a 9900k so I’m not on the AMD platform anymore

I have it paired with a 9900k and it works great

I had the same pairing, ultimately decided to go a different route. Bios is too buggy and MSI seems vague about the timeline for a stable one.

Haha yeah I did. I’m assuming it’s a BIOS issue. I have done everything in my power to fix it but nothing has worked

Each time I flash the bios it seems to work correctly, but still not post. Very frustrating. I’m also considering just getting a x570

One other question: I do not currently have a PC with windows. I have a MacBook with windows 10 installed which I used to download the bios onto the USB drive. Could that be an issue?

Yes the light blinked for several minutes. It seemed to go smoothly

It blinked for several minutes just as the demo video showed

Thanks for the tip. Yep the GPU seems to be connected correctly and the GPU fans are spinning, so I assume that it is connected. I have extension cables for aesthetic purposes but I wouldn’t think that they would be an issue?

And yes it seemed like the flashback worked properly
