Mind me asking how much you got for it?

And I notice on mine, after removing Norton Internet security trial the start up is much more faster 

Up until now still did not have a chance playing any games on it yet  how about you? others are already asking question how GX60 performs, haha

@Elysian: It's a terribad MSI oversight, supplying 90w adapters for a laptop that sucks 130w at full load. AND that was the ONLY real issue I have had with the GE40 anyway lol, everything else has been super.

@davidmak: Oh mai. I'm waiting for my 1202 to come in to replace my Intel Advanced-N (which in turn replaced the single-band Azurewave crap MSI was bundling with the GE40). I got a Broadcom BCM943228HMB too from eBay but that came faulty (ugh).

Yeah, I've gone through 3 WIFI cards already. Now using the Intel, which ONLY works with the standard Win8 driver - upgrading it to anything newer from Intel makes it stupid lol.

Don't tell me the 1202 has issues too. Sheesh.

Does ANYONE make GOOD, SOLID WIFI cards ANYMORE?

Mate, I'm on the GT70 2OC. Nope, never saw the BSOD (Power Kernel code 41/63) before. I only saw 0x0003b once immediately after log into Windows 8, then it restart. I've also seen the display go wonky with a lot of lines and then restart. On one occasion the advanced startup (for diagnostics) wouldn't boot. Then once in awhile, I get driver failure here and there. Was diagnosing one after another. Then it occur to me that perhaps it was the RAM. Took them off, restore from image. Has been rock solid ever since.

By the way, I still have 3 remaining problems:

1. I'm on the latest Killer 1202 driver. Every time when Windows 8 boots up, the wireless connection would be disconnected. It'll take awhile before it'll connect. I can see that it already detect the SSID (it appear on the list), but just wouldn't connect to it. Unless I give it some time and it'll connect automatically.

2. On random times, the Killer 1202 would lose connection, especially when I come out of a full screen application such as a game. During online gaming, its rock solid. Never lose connection at all.

3. Does your device manager list 'Intel Display Audio' under the Sound section? When I was re-installing both Intel and Nvidia drivers, I saw that appear in device manager but with a halt sign (status power failure). Then it disappear. I remember Intel Display Audio is for routing sound through the HDMI connection. But isn't the HDMI and Display port powered/hardwired to the Nvidia card anyway? I tried plugging it into a TV, sound works just fine through the HDMI.

I'm glad to see that there are many MSI gaming laptop owners now.

Most of you are using Windows 8? Isn't it better to use Win 7 for gaming?

Besides that, I guess you wouldn't face as much problem with drivers in Win7.

Btw, great job on the event organising specially for MSI gamers

There's a MSI Gamer Gathering this Saturday at The Kitchen, 1st floor of Kelab Victoria.
The event will be a Dota2 centric event. For any inquiries or more info check out StashDen or MSI Gaming NB's Facebook See you guys there

Ya, but still, Windows 7 is still preferable. Until today, I have not converted over to the Win 8 due to compatibility issues and the interface. I don't like the swiping gesture using a mouse, it seems silly though it actually takes time to adapt to it.

I still like Windows 7 the way it is.

Anyway, what is the average price of a GT70-2OD in Malaysia anyway? Above 6k for sure?

I've been with my rig for 2 years, still kicking ass with games at acceptable graphical performance, haha. Definitely no regrets buying it for the performance that it can offer. Except now it has temperature issues after I fixed my display cover, currently at maintenance.

Anyone tried Super Raid 2? Worth the money? 0_o

how much for 4gb ram

Haha, nice try dude. I'm not buying, just trying to speculate the market for gaming notebooks in Malaysia. With the demand getting higher, it would get more affordable in the future =)

I won't be buying 1 until next 2-3 years, still satisfied with mine and I still feel there are certain technology that are still new and needs to mature a while.

Killer 1202 has been out for a while, I'm looking forward for the same type of Killer 1202 but with an extra antenna, that would be great 

I'm actually very curious about the Super Raid 2, I wonder if it's actually worth investing on for just a gamer and some minor editing work.

at the early days of adapting to w8, i was uncomfortable with it also (the famous start button syndrome:)). it's like i always go to the usual places for tools but they are not there.

however, since i'm used to most win key combos, things were getting better in a week. i just need to learn 2 more win keys, win+x to access system menus, and win+i to access power button. the rest is almost the same.

now all the programs i use for home and work are already made compliant to w8. i'm now looking forward to upgrading to w8.1 lol!

Acer actually has the stickers too. Dell/Lenovo has some void stickers INSIDE (last I checked anyway).

The WORD from the MSI representative on this thread (MSI-NB) is that "it's not recommended to do your own upgrades". He DID NOT say "prohibited". Also, he (she?) says that if the seal is "broken" by an authorised MSI dealer to add RAM, it's fine.

So take it as you will.

What I DO understand is ONLY the RAM and the Storage Device can be touched at all. Touch anything else and RISK voiding your warranty.

erm upgrade ssd leh? what is ok and what is not ok... did they put anything in writing? Otherwise one day they beh song they can insist that the seal is broken too bad...

So when they upgrade they got break the seal or not... stupid seal is making me so turned off from buying this MSI people are so stupid

about the ram let me think about it first since you got no price

Because more printed words = more cost amirite? Simple is cheap.

*EHEM*groupbuythestickerslahwoi*EHEM*

Feel like putting it over every key on the keyboard just to troll them lololololol.

I couldn't guarantee if it's effective in events of biological warfare and such or any situation like in Metro 
where's your location bro?

Then you could come to the gathering. I dont see why you say you cant lol.

Anyways, anyone else going? Also, hoping there is other game events besides dota. I tried back playing against AI(insane). Gosh I sucked. Must have lost my magic in 3 years 

Well, it would be more meaningful than driving 3 hours for an item and driving 3 hours back. Or , try killing 2 birds with 1 stone, since you did mention in your previous post that you're coming to KL, set up to a meet at the 14th, then come to the gathering(if you are interested). Your call, not forcing though, just a suggestion. 
Regarding the event, there will be only dota2 

Hi guys.. wanna ask
For budget of Max 4k..
Which version should best benefits me?
For gaming and programming in future.
Read review on GX60 for the underperformance APU bottleneck the GPU, any ways to improve the processor performance?

Prefer a gaming laptop that runs cool.
Don't rly emphasis screen size , etc.
