I'm really sorry bro. I don't know the model series but I only know it's a MSI laptop, with i7, GTX860m, 17 inch...
LOL, that's pretty awesome. Honestly, my friends and I have been using desktop for gaming for several years....we always reach 90 degree celsius when gaming for several hours....your results seem good  rclxms.gif
If you follow the trend, most laptops, smart phones, tablets come in sleek, slim and plain design. Examples would be ipad, iphone 6, Samsung Galaxy Tab S, Note 4. In terms of laptop design, we have got something like Macs, Acer V Nitro......and another design like those in Alienware, MSI, Asus G551 hahaha

No offense but Alienware and these "gaming laptops" design are quite bulky lol
*
Yea bro. Really awesome cause this laptop is thin and light, i dont expect it to be that good. Thumbs up for acer. Previously using their 4830tg. Its a well built also. I played battlefield 3 on my 4830tg before and now played it on my nitro, the difference is night and day man! Can easily max out everything on FHD and still got 50+ above fps. Really love the cooling also as its really quite while gaming. Overall really great job from acer. Im now playing dragon age:inquisition on this beast. thumbup.gif

Its not over the top bad. 89-91 degrees average after playing awhile but i can't stand the heat lol. I'll get u the reading smile.gif

Ahhh i see. I barely feel any heat on this nitro, maybe because the heat goes out at the back, palmrest place is really cool, the only place thats little warm is top side of keyboard. Others all cool. thumbup.gif im thinking of underclocking my laptop. To make it more cooler. Haha. biggrin.gif

Bro u have twin heatpipes for BOTH cpu and gpu. And twin silent fans. Best optimum design. It took YEARS for msi to think twin fans is the best to go (look at gt72).

You could use power settings to underclock ur cpu, imo its the main heat culprit. Set settings to 99% and ur cpu will max clock at 2.5ghz (i7 4710 max speed without boost). You dont need intel boost for most games. Try the setting and see if it works but i'll be more envious of u bro sad.gif

I did that on my msi to prevent random fan hairdryer speed while doing normal task like web browing and excel/msdoc stuff. Its already mildly loud at 3k rpm while idle and there nothing i can do to lower the fan speed.
*
Ahhh i see. Wow, never know about it. Good to know that. thumbup.gif Ayte bro thanks for the tips! Will test it out tomorrow. Hope it works cause i dont really need the turbo boost anyway. Already got used to core i5. Haha. biggrin.gif

No prob smile.gif
Games are not bottlenecked by cpu but by gpu. 2.5ghz is more than enough. Unless u want encode vids or do photoshop or something like that... I can advise modifying max cpu power 99% at balance mode and 100% for high performance mode at power settings, ac or battery mode. U can actually tweak alot of things at power options.

You can select whatever power settings with a click as you need then. Sorry i am lazy thats y i do this haha.
*
tested out as what u stated, but i don't know how to see the difference between on turbo boost or not. haha. sweat.gif anyway, i played bf3 single player on fhd ultra setting for around 1 & 1/2 hours, (i am bit surprised can get constant 60fps, previously played bf3 on my 4830tg low settings also cant get 60fps sweat.gif). Finally i can hear my dual fan kicks in! haha! but to my surprise the fan is not as loud as my previous Y500. Im really damn impressed with this laptop, plus im playing it while im laying on my bed, put the laptop on my belly and leg as support (lazy mode, haha!). Previously cant do like this on my Y500 cause its f***en heavy, this nitro is really lightweight. thumbup.gif

Adjusted, it's sharp now  rclxm9.gif

Since it's new, I'm still hesitating whether to leave it overnight or not for downloads coz i'm afraid it will reduce the battery life.. hmm.gif

Do not hesitate bro, just use it as it is. Dont worry so much about the battery. It will be degraded overtime anyway. The faster the better maybe can claim warranty before 6 months of usage. laugh.gif (iinm previously my acer 4830tg battery warranty cover 6 months. Not sure about now.)

Do you guys actually put the battery inside the laptop all the time while charging and playing laptop? Cause  I wanna buy new laptop, Acer V Nitro, no stock everywhere. Sigh

V Nitro battery is built-in bro. U cant take it out. The only best option for removable battery is the Asus G551JM. nod.gif

Lol, I went to PC fair first day and survey. Last day of PC fair decided to buy Acer V Nitro, reach 4pm out of stock. They said two more weeks only got stock. Fine.

Search garage, found it, make full payment on 22-Nov. Said will receive on 26th. They have no stock, need to delay till 29th. On that day, the guy ask for my bank account, full payment refund. Said Acer irresponsible, keep on delay, damage their company reputation.

Got money also cannot get laptop, furthermore the laptop that I'm using is overheat every 5 mins.  unsure.gif

Since the struggle is real, I'll inform you if I able to get it somewhere.

@zuhaili87, Oh, I didn't know it. Thank you for clarify.  smile.gif

I didn't know that either, thanks for the info but I usually use adapter I'm afraid I'll damage the battery easily
Thanks if I found it will inform you too smile.gif

You're welcome. smile.gif nowadays most notebook manufacturer started to provide built in battery, i really hate this cause i too usually use laptop without battery. I just dont understand why u must put a built in battery into a "gaming" laptop. For example Y50, V Nitro, even the Alienware 14. Reason being is to make the laptop thinner. sweat.gif

Not sure, but my GE60 doesnt recharge the battery unless it is less than 90%. So sometimes when playing intense games and the adaptor (120w) cant supply enough power to the laptop it will use up some from the batt. If play simple games like cs:go no prob but when play crysis 3 the batt will slowly drain until below 90% then only it recharges. I guess this helps to increase batt lifespan...
I also already ask other people in msi forums with their msi. Seems msi implement this tech across their gaming laptops.

Yap same. I think if less than 90% to 95%. nod.gif just that main enemy of battery is heat. Cant run away from that while gaming. laugh.gif

bro,on 28 december, i saw ready stock in sunway pyramid it department (the shop is handled by foreigner, they have not display in their shop, you have to ask them and only then they will show you the v nitro, you may try your luck there) rclxm9.gif

Ya, i also ask there, got stock, but i asked at the gaming laptop shop the right end. Indeed they all doesnt have display unit, but they have ready stock. And price is ok too. Usually pyramid is the worst place to buy, mark up price kaw-kaw, but nowadays no more, at least they follow the retail price. And maybe can nego if add up other stuff a lil bit. nod.gif
