bro hellfire, are you in touch with the service center alone or with MSI cust srv rep also?
because my laptop, sent in on 17th, out 31st already. change mobo, ge62 laptop.
they told me mobo shipped out on 25th, arrive 29, installed 30th, ready 31sy
*
i basically call the service center, MSI KL, MSI taiwan aka HQ etc.. u name it i have it.
Their explanation is the first replacement part they send in is faulty and they send another one. So all in all is more than 1 months plus and still no tangible solution. just call me today again and claim they receive part from taiwan dy and need more time to fix it.

The hell with MSI. Dont get MSI in future!!!

Really disappointed with msi. expensive but dont even have a proper after sales support team.
BTW bro hellfire, what was the issue? your first replacement mobo was also faulty, and you had to wait for another one?
*
my laptop initially mobo fried. ..send in and the first replacement board come after 1 month..but this so call replacement board faulty...then they have to order another one....

anyway yesterday when starting dota..it crashed...now format reinstalling see if it helps...else i think the hardware they give me is problematic..

MSI GE62 2QF CPU Fan always fails...decided to change it on my own. The machine is also always overheat. After i apply the thermal paste it is back to normal. A Dota session the GPU temp never exceed 70C and hover around 60C. The MSI shop at digital mall dont wanna help me claim warranty for the Plextor m2 SSD. Ask me claim myself..so sad.. So i end up buy another m2 ssd.

Gladly, pls let me know how.
Unlike the guy below, I play Overwatch only so far on this laptop and its always around 76-78C in air-conditioned room. In non-aircond room, I tested and the temp reaches 82C.

Btw, this is my second machine - the first machine I had been provided 1 to 1 exchange for keyboard issue at the time of opening - even that laptop reached 80C when first turn on machine. Very odd.
BTW, cool DIY bruh. Can I ask your overheating issue is the SSD? I thought it was the HDD that is giving out heat problems.
*
The over heating issue is due to 1. Faulty fan (replace 1 time before but broken again) 2. I am shocked to see the existing thermal paste is as good as no thermal paste..

The SSD has nothing to do with heat issue. Since i am opening it up and the SSD is cheap now, i am upgrading it to higher capacity.

Right now the CPU temp is always at 50 C and GPU is 47 C when i am not doing anything resource intensive.
