My GPU spike to 90'c too, with or without battery, same temperature. Played BF3. I guess this is normal, but not good for long run tho, because the gpu might spoiled over the years.

I mostly play without batteries. Treating it like a desktop at the moment. Guess have to lower the graphic settings a bit or play in aircond room. Lol.

eventhough it's marketed as a 'gaming' laptop you still have to lower the setting

unless the game is old i wont bother put high, stressing a laptop is not a good idea

missed the poster (and free headphones) too... and i hope the lcd panel upgrade would still be available after CNY when im back in KL by mid february...

Hi all Ref pic Above my Quick Access Button seems not to be working. "DVD Eject/Display Off/Turbo Battery/S-Bar/Cinema Pro"

And anybody here using CM Notepal U2 as their Cooler ? Which better U2 or U3 ?

Thx.

U need to ensure ur S-Bar is enabled. I am using U3 now, quite good, but it might too big sometimes.

U2 is just fine for me. still figuring out the sweet spot to place the fan though

@rd33 >...< still cannot. With S-Bar Running Quite troublesome if wanna Eject DVD need to go windows explorer and do it. Haha.

@rd33 @lucifer_666 <3 <3 got pic of U2/U3 while Laptop ontop it :3 any improvement ?

@lucifer_666 Sweet Spot should be the CPU Vent and the Intake Veent <3 Too bad the laptop don`t have vent at GPU lol XD... mod mod >...<ll

ahhh.. the 'star' bother you right.. well i'm kinda already get use to it.. i juz ignored that.. hahaha..

got no cooler pad for a moment. and didnt run too much heavy games.. only dota whenever i'm bored..

no pic of it now, but will try to load later tomorrow once im home. the laptop is slightly larger than u2 though actually, but i just think that u3 could be a bit too big. personally dont feel much of improvement in temp reduction, even after motoring using hwmonitor. rather had it for the sense of ergonomic and improved airflow beneath the laptop.

still crashed when im playing bf3 though with temp peaking at around 90C (yes, thats at lowest setting)

@AwaN87 LOL trying to ignore the problem but.. imma using dvd to burn site project stuff. XD...
@lucifer_666 :3 same problem with battlefield 3 but.. play 1 round rest 1 round lol hahah pix pix >...< <3

@hiozneko i played on hard and cant even defend the "walkway mission" in Iraq. always ende dup dead and im giving it up, for now... maybe will pick it up again someday later at least, its good to know that its not just my pc

Im using a CM NotePal X-Slim. Not too bad lar. Does lower the temp a bit. BF3 for me also CPU around 95, GPU 90. All low graphic settings also same temp. Scary to play too long sometimes.

I have System Control Manager installed. Sorta like an alternative to S-Bar if you hate the star on the desktop (which I really do). But the keys next to the on/off buttons still don't work, so I gave into S-Bar. Found the off monitor button so useful with my dual screen setup.

System Control Manager download at http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT683.html#/...ty&os=Win7%2064 under Download > Utilities.

battery u need to use sometime don't let it like that for too long, for storage in long time u need to leave it atleast 50% power left

Yea, only for now. Gonna be flying off soon. I charge my battery til 100 then take it out.
