wanna send in my lappy for hd replacement next week or so once i got the moolah!!! btw, how long should i live without my lappy during the replacement process? as in, how long does it usually take for you guys to get your lcd panel replaced?

zzz..so warranty voided if i tear off the sticker?

nope. MSI-MY has already clarified with us that the warranty wont be voided if the sticker is torn. The backpanel gives access to everything.

really? that's great

ealier i was wondering how can i clean the dust on my own and maintain the warranty

Yup. Just make sure you dont tamper the stickers under the panel. those will cost your warranty I suppose.

MSI-MY told me the warranty will be voided. It is best you guys confirm with him again.

Dear All

For your information, the "Warranty Void" sticker has it purpose.
Initially, once the sticker is torn, the warranty will void.

But, to ease our customer, that would like to change/add HDD or RAM, we will still accept unit that

1- Harddisk changed
2- RAM Changed/Added

If the sticker is torn but no HDD and RAM upgrade found, the unit will not be covered by warranty. It is best for you to ask your dealer (that you bought your laptop from) and upgrade it for you.

Hope this is clear.

Regards

so if i want to clear some dust i have to bring it to msi to do it?

Whats the Price for it now ah ?
2K can get ah ?

Dear noobfc

Please take note that our service center wont accept if there is no problem with your unit.
However, if the dust piled up, i believe the unit will be "hot" and "overheat"
So, if your unit encounter issue above, you can send to our service center for servicing

I believe most model from other brand also practice the same, that end user dont have access to clean the heatsink.

i see, thanks for your clarification

Is it just my badluck or what.

Got my FullHD upgrade 2 days ago and today a stuck/dead red pixel appear on the LCD.. darn.. and Im leaving Malaysia on Friday somemore..

Hopefully MSI can do something ofr me

hey im think im soon gonna get this brand, may i know is there any promotion coming up soon ? and which reseller/distributor is trustable and cheap ! i live around subang ! thanks in advance.. today i went to lowyat but none of the distributor have the model so hard to show to my parents anywhere i have display or test unit for this model or 683DX

Hi MSI-MY regarding access to clean the heatsink.

Let say I want to change the original Factory Thermal Paste. To a better paste. I "MUST" Bring my laptop to your service center/Distributor and ask Person in-charge to apply the thermal paste for me?

Dear Batusai

Arranged everything and your replacement LCD is on its way to Ipoh.

They will change for you tomorrow.

Regards

Yup no problem. Hopefully its gonna be smooth

RRP = RM3099/RM3599

Many Thanks to MSI-MY and E-Maintenance for their fantastic job.

Managed to get my LCD replaced on the spot today before leaving to overseas!

MSI service amazed me!

batusai how the difference ah on the screen? is'it more sharp? can't wait for mine

Ahh. Its not my first time using FullHD screen. Well. Its just plain awesome to me.

Its definitely note sharp. Icons and everything will looks small which some people do not like it.

FullHD movies would look great on it. Normal HD movies or those dvd ripped RMVB will look kinda awful, you'll notice the pixels.

gaming would be tough on native. Normally I use 1600x900 or 1440x900 which is very good already. COD can go on native, Battlefield 3 only manage 1440x900. Do update the latest Graphics driver. Has alot improvements to it.

Do check which LCD you got when it comes back. At first I got AUO which had dead/stuck pixels and got it change into LG Philips now. But are equal quality but just from diff manufacturer.
