I wish the best amongst the best of luck for your mission

Don't worry, not even going near the keyboard lol. It's just ridiculous.

Testing ME3 now, though I doubt I'm gonna feel anything with the air conditioning going on.

Plus I'm now thinking that this cheapo X-Lite II cooler (which I leave at my folks') ACTUALLY works better than the FUIYOOH U2 Plus. There's just so much air volume it's not funny anymore.

Probably for the best. The spaces around the chiclet keys are very narrow. Risky wor.

Yah. I'm surprised how petty the airflow is from the U3 fan, even cranking max fan speed.

Problem is with the X-Lite (and everything else for that matter, save for the Deep Cool MultiCores) is that the single huge fan gives greatest air volume... to the center.

My GE40's bloody vents are at the front end lol.

Actually, the U1 fans are bloody good. It's a single fan for one USB connection and it's damn powerful (for such a small fan, that is). I use them stacked with the U2 Plus double fans, which don't even blow half the amount of air as the U1 single fan, even when you add them together. Plus it attaches fine to the U2.

Now thinking of buying another U1 fan from Thundermatch LYP, the ONLY place I know of selling them. They're cheap too.

Oh, and yeah the CF skin helps. Temps are about the same, after taking into account the colder AC air being circulated into the lappy. But the CF skin DOES helps moderate the heat to my palms.

Before it felt like I was putting my hand on a toaster. Now it just feels like someone's warm bum after an hour's worth of exercise...

The bummy heat lingers a bit longer though, due to the fact that it's not being conducted as efficiently to my palm. Maybe the engineers at MSI intended for the palmrest to serve as a secondary heatsink for the GPU, thinking "gamers will prolly use a gaming keyboard or a Nostromo... why not we...".

Regardless of the stock fans, I did notice a change of temperature while gaming, but if time permits, I would opt for the U1 fans, probably a pair, since the U3 has more than enough space for 5 fans.

I think due to the light build of the ge40, i think the whole lappy feels warm ? And your hand was probably an indirect form of another cooling

Speaking of gaming keyboard, anyone saw the Roccat Ryos?

Actually, post *ehem* repaste *ehem* and also after turning Turbo Boost off, the WASD area (aka. the CPU) never feels even warm, much less the other parts of the laptop lol. Of course putting your hand just an inch over to the left side puts it right over the heatsink fins (read: WARMNESS), but the WASD area itself remains comfortable most of the time.

It's just the extremely hard working GPU and the area around it (dat palmrest).

Not that I didn't anticipate it happening. MSI DID stuff a 760 into a laptop an inch thin after all. I hear the Razer Blade is EVEN HOTTER at full load.

Hello guys, i just noticed there is a grey spot/ line at the bottom corner of the screen. Any ideas to fix it?

SRY FOR THE FLASH, PLS IGNORE IT.

ouch! flash hurt my eye...

OH MY GAWD IM BLIND!

Anyway, is that line inside the screen? If it's just ON the screen some cleaning spray (sprayed onto a CLOTH, not the screen) should help clean it.

If it's inside... Uh...

Hi guys..I got my MSI GE620 DX one month ago..Its a discontinued version of the MSI Gaming Series but it still packs a punch thou~ Not much info could be found thou..Here is the link of my laptop~

http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GE620DX.html...er&os=Win8%2064

Welcome! Your lappy looks like a older, bigger brother of the GE40/X460DX/1420 BTW... Nice!

Haha Thanks!! Oh i see..Yeah, it seems like a low-budget gaming laptop to me compared to the rest of the MSI Gaming Series..But I felt jelly when seeing my mates having new models one ><..Oh well, the price was the best feature I had for this laptop haha!

Well MSI has always been about value for money (though I'm not sure how value the top of the line GT70 is at 13k). Yours came with the 555 or the 635 GPU? 555 = Alienware M14xR1 level woooo.

GPU 635M 2GB...Quite decent running games now..But I put everything to the lowest except a higher reso

My advice is if you're looking for absolute good performance then avoid it. I was considering on getting the GX60/70 laptop too. The 8970M was really attractive. But after watching Youtube videos and forums about it, decided to skip it entirely. Some went to extreme lengths to upgrade the CPU to an ES version so that OC can be done is good testament.

Of course, if you're on a budget but still want all the nice MSI features such as cooler boost, dynaudio, audio boost, etc then its a good buy. Just be prepared to lower down the eye candies hehehe...

If it's inside, theres no way to fix it? From the looks of it, it seems to be inside.

call MSI service center... if it still under warranty... i really want to know what MSI so call service center is in action..

I got impatient and ended up covering the entire display frame in CF vinyl as well. Nothing fancy, just another half-hour rough hack job. Thankfully it looks half-decent (if not a tad tacky), and at least I'm now completely free from them shiny plastic bits.

Total cost (Palmrest + keyboard sides + display frame): RM50 + about an hour's work cutting and pasting. Quite reasonable considering I have A LOT of CF skin left over.
