GT Series is amazing in terms of heat management. I've been using mine for about 5 months now, very satisfied. In fact, I'm selling mine currently.

I'm considering GS60 6QE now since my 13" rmbp was stolen from me few weeks ago. Mac was an enjoyable experience but I do miss gaming.

First off is there any wide spread problems or issues with this laptop? I was actually considering the Xps 15 as well but the problems reported by users are putting me off.

Next is whether I should go for the 4k screen or the 1080p? I do a lot of photo editing and enjoy some occasional gaming so I reckon the 4k screen would be better, but I'll have to scale down to 1080p for gaming obviously. Will the scaling look obvious or bad? Or will the 1080p screen be good enough for both of my usage? I'm having the dilemma now because coming from the mbp's retina screen I'm not sure whether I would like the 1080p screen at 15".

I'm in the UK now instead of Msia btw. So put aside service related issues.

Just bought GL 62.

So far so good, like the built quality and steelseries keyboard.

Just want to ask here, will it void the warranty if i want to upgrade SSD and RAM ?

Thanks.

From what i now last time i want to upgrade i need to go to authorize seller or service centre to upgrade.

Thanks for the info.

I guess i will give them a call before i send for upgrade.

GL 62 adv as a gaming laptop but no backlight keyboard, what a joke MSI ==-

Indeed.

But for me i dont mind at all.

The spec and price is within my range 4k and below.

Need to try some games first.

Hehe.

Anyone know what kind of ssd can firt msi prestige pe70 6qe

Any 2280 M2

havent got issues with GT80s 6QE so far. just the weight is killing me.

Man... I sent in my MSI laptop for warranty due to the Speaker issue for 3 weeks and yet to receive anything from them. Zzz

which model with free gifts ( diary , keychain, mouse --etc) as pics you uploaded ?

Is there any widnows 10 clean install guide on GE72 ?

Bit lost here. And I don't want to lose the OEM key.

Sorry bro I didn't go and explore about it

your oem windows key will be different from original.

I got my laptop with Win8, after send for repair, came back win win10.
Windows not activated.
Called microsoft, tell them my issue.
Operator ask me for some info like previous key etc
Ask me copy new key down, key in and activate.
Less than 10mins.

Dont even bother to wait for MSI personnel to help you out, they will tell you "checking"

Edit: basically, I mean is, if your OS is original, copy down the number first. that will be your proof of purchase and free upgrade to win10

1080p would be enough since windows still very weak on tweaking font size on larger resolution.
personal prefer output to a better LCD since you can get a better LCD with almost same prize of 4k screen update in laptop unless you're rely on laptop to done your photo/video editing job most of the time.
970m 1080p gaming is good but for 4k still not recommended.

otherwise Alienware not a bad choice if u wanted for 4k gaming due to the graphic amplifier~

btw i'm using GS70,as a lightroom and vegas pro user i would prefer a better LCD output than rely on laptop screen since it's tn panel with 6bit colour processing.
*i did try to compared to ips panel on gs60,it look real good with better colour but lcd output still recommended if you're not fully rely on laptop for photo/video editing*
and also i heard some ppl suffer from screen light bleed issue with new panel or new panel in msi seem not good like older batch.

last time my gs70 stucked for upgrading to windows 10,
loading to 15~17% then roll back to old windows and i tried many way including reinstall all bios,driver and windows 8.1 but no good news.
so i directly installed some windows 10.iso perform a clean install.
now it's say windows were activated,should be ok right?
haha...old oem cd key confirm lost since i clicked format on os drive.

Window 10v1511 will auto detect OEM licience and active for you.
