Hi guys, I am planning to buy msi ge72 6qc.

Well, I looked around penang. All of those seller only sell at srp.

Then I searched around lyn, there is a 3rd floor Evernew at lowyat plaza, which offered me at 41xx.

Googled, but found a lot of complain regarding its salesman.

Should I buy from there? Also afraid of 2nd hand or cloned set

Hi, any msi laptop owner successfully convert ur ODD drive into hdd/ssd slot using caddy drive?

Found a shop at Penang Prangin Mall selling Akasa brand caddy drive that support 9mm to 12mm drive.

Tonite will send my PE70 to change the ODD drive to caddy drive + 512G ssd.

Installation done.  caddy + installation RM50.

Guys I need help! I'm planning to purchase MSI GE62 6QC in Subang Jaya Mega mall (MSI CONCEPT SHOP) at RM4399 but I have a concern. If something happens to my laptop (example : Internal fault, damaged / scratches) do I have to go down to Megamall again for services? (I'm from Penang but in vacation in Subang Jaya now) or I can just went to Penang's MSI concept shop in KOMTAR for services? (Same applies to warranty) I can buy it right away or should I buy it back in Penang?

Yeah, that one I googled and get a lot of complaint.

Then I search for other seller around lowyat.

Guess which I found ?
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3679340&hl=

Assume I buy from him, which the stock is in sealed condition. Cash and carry, can I go to 2nd floor msi center there check its originality ?

Price too good to be true, beware its demo set or faulty unit

this software can let you know how long the HDD of the laptop has turn on, if you see the HDD turn on long, high possible the unit is demo unit and they packing back.

Hi,I'm having the same issue with my GT72 model. I'll get a yellowish/reddish tint on the the screen whenever the background is pure white. The new line of GE models don't seem to have this issue though as I've compared the models side by side. I managed to fix this problem by calibrating screen colour manually, by reducing the red hue by slightly. You can just delete whatever "True Color" application installed on the PE line, in my honest opinion it's complete garbage and just a gimmick.

Gt 72 old gen is with tn panel, no matter how u calibrate, its view angle still limited

FYI, I had pay a visit on MSI concept store below is some summary

GE Series
GE62-2QF (Broadwell) - SDC324C (From Samsung, IPS)
GE62 - 6QE (Skylake) - CMN15x (From Chi Mei? Chi Mei Panel )

PE Series
PE60-2QE (Broadwell) - SDC324C (From Samsung, IPS)
PE60 - 2QE (Unsure) - LG040E
PE60 -6QE (Chi Mei Panel, review by Skisz)
PE70 - 6QE (Chi Mei Panel, review by Dannyoski)

Conclusion
MSI had variation on LCD Panel from version to version, please check your panel type if you really concern for IPS/PN/PLS and colour accuracy.

Method
Right click your screen > display settig > advance display setting > display adapter properties > monitor taps > properties > detail > drop down to hardware ids

Some review on best notebook panel.

Sorry for being a bit off topic here. (Since u guys are discussing about the latest skylake msi pe60 with cheap display panel). I heard that the broadwell msi pe60 has this bsod bug: BSOD MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION error. One retailer I asked mentioned that broadwell msi pe60 is well known with this bsod bug. Is that true? Anybody here can confirm this?

MSI SCREEN QUALITY MYSTERY SOLVED?
It says "IPS Level Panel" <-- This means IPS panel is NOT guaranteed?


"15.6" Full HD (1920 x 1080), Wide-viewing angle, IPS level panel "


In the specifications it says IPS-quality not guaranteeing IPS. This could explain why one may not get an IPS panel per se: http://my.msi.com/product/notebook/GE62-6Q...o-specification
