hey need advise again... power supply psu for notebook unit, is it possible for me to purchase any psu to be use on my GT70 cause msi provided with 180W power brick... hm possible to by 240w to be use with this?

Will you consider audiophile level headphone with wide headstage? A few of them are highly praised for gaming like Audio Technica AD-700, and of course for music listening as well.

I'd like to have a build in mic too lol, considering the GE40 mic is so... very... crappy.

I know I can order an external mic like the modmic or something but having them all I one for pc use (I have IEMs for other purposes) is convenient. The Vulcan especially so because it folds up. The baby bro Orion also looks nice (and is 30% cheaper!).

Also, there are some that think that the 700 is overrated (as in, overpriced for what it does) for gaming and some of the Fischer Audio cans are better suited. But even those have no mics built in.

Them modmics are out of stock ANYWAY.

@unseen: You interested to sell it (the headphones)?

Also, getting a 240w psu is fine, as long as it's has the MSI connector and similar voltage ratings. I'm actually looking for an MSI 120w psu myself.

@xFreedom: GE40 = Much better battery life, small size, rubbish built in mic. GE60 = Better screen, sliiiiiiiiightly lower temps.

Essentially it depends on your budget and whether you want a 14incher or a 15incher.

for this part i think you should look around. get a power brick that has the same voltage (+0.5V is still ok but not more than that), but higher wattage (230-240W, 330W; well 330W might be too much hehe).

unfortunately the MSI BIOS lock it down to the 180W , so 240W won't take any effect , the system will still using 180W+hybrid power , but maybe can unlock the BIOS and change to 240W

Wo.. Thanks for the head-up; because of the hybrid power thing?

oh my... sorry i thought i explain to you(on PM) regarding hybrid power that msi GT60/70 use they call it NOS ... explanation is when cpu on boost mode and gpu (boost mode) ac power 180w reach it limit... bios will switch to use battery power+ ac power in theory there be + 10% gpu/cpu boost.. is like built in boost system/OC on the GT60/70... (hybrid stop using battery when the charge of battery is 30% )

hmm thank you for confirmation of hybrid power msi call it NOS lolz silly name still think it as gimmick... but more i use GT70 i understand why / reason they implemented the tech add on... is simply to compensate e.g. boost 2 not just faster spining fan but also extra connected copper bridge...(which is work fine cooling ), Dynaudio speaker.. this speaker can drown noise from fan when it on boost mode... plus sound system came with GT70 is impressive creative blaster cinema (as i came from Asus G series sound is not satisfy) ... keyboards.. steelseries... (some ppl luv this keyboards) not me.. lols like color tho... and i never understand Killer wifi thing... ??

hmm kinda.. but it got Asus Rog symbol on it reason i purchase is to match my G75vx... and headphone cal ASUS vulcan ANC when i get home i take pic.. post it...

actually , if let me choose another notebook again , i will pick Sager/Clevo although their speaker and keyboard not so well than the MSI notebook but u can apply external speaker and keyboard .


Between the Killer Wifi 1202 , it load the streaming video more faster than the Intel 6300N Wifi on youtube .This is what i observe ....

Have you tried Killer wifi 1303 yet?

well when i move to gt70 i see improve sound/ thermal so on from my previous g75 but except screen lcd and noise.. when boost mode.
x
wifi killer .. maybe cause i have slow streamyx then.. or u could teach me how to use killer thing...

KILLER network cards (WIFI/Lan) have more features and faster speeds (supposedly) compared to normal cards.

@tonberry_ax: 1303 doesn't come with BT. Plus it's still pants compared to the Intel 7260 AC cards.

Yea i aware of 1303 dun comes with BT, but i dun mind anyway since i dun use BT in lappy. ac card still not available in malaysia market right?

Any MSI GE60 20C-068MY

or

MSI GE40-2OC-097MY
user?
Can tell me the temperature of these 2 laptop when running games?

I honestly do not think that the Asus ROG Vulcan is anywhere near comparable to the K701. How was the K701 being driven? straight from a headphone jack? Or on a full on desktop system?

nothing wrong screen, i just use to 120hz lcd(3D) glossy bright screen..

my GE60-2OC can hit 75 degrees, but with turbo fan can just get merely 70-73 degrees depending on how stress the game is.

Ehem. "Holds its own" here doesn't mean it's comparable. It actually means "it doesn't sound like outright sheet compared to", unlike most other gaming headsets. Supposedly anyway, it was from a review on the net.

It was from a desktop external amp-dac btw.

Anyhows, I'm now leaning towards the notion that Razer Surround + an "okay" Headphone is enough for most of the stuff I do on the laptop anyway - spending 800+ just to be able to know which bullets come from where ACCURATELY is not really important when you're being suppressed on a regular basis by heavy enemy fire + tank shells while being mortar spammed, all at once.

I mean, YOU KNOW where they're coming from. No 7.1 or audiophile headphones are gonna help you pwn a tank and an entire squad of angry Russians right in front of you.

For music I'm listening from the on board realtek anyway so...

@tonberry_ax: Bring it in from outside and install ler lol. AC routers are available locally already anyway - though the biggest bottleneck is still bloody UniFi, so it's sorta pointless.
