As mine is shorted. Does MSI will offer below NVIDIA Bundles Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/nvidia-bu...antom-pain.html » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Starting today, NVIDIA GeForce customers can live in the Metal Gear world for free. For a limited time, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will be free with the purchase of qualifying GeForce products. The offer includes GeForce GTX 960, 970, 980 and 980 Ti-based graphics cards as well as notebooks that feature the GeForce GTX 970M or 980M GPU. Previous chapters in the Metal Gear saga allowed players to experience the thrilling world of Snake and his gang. The latest chapter, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, has arrived — with its photorealistic thrills enhanced with NVIDIA technology. As we announced last month, our engineers are working closely with Konami to get the graphics just right. We’re also ensuring the game takes advantage of unique GeForce technologies such as G-SYNC, Dynamic Super Resolution and ShadowPlay. Metal Gear is a beloved franchise that offers great stories and lots of fun. Last year Konami’s teaser, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, gave us a glimpse of what to expect next. The world of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is going to be bigger and bolder.

They will charge RM70 just to help you open the laptop casing, put the hardware in and close the casing back. Totally wtf on that part... bloody sucker If not because there is one sticker to cover the screw hole, really wont like them to do it.

I'm thinking of buying MSI GE62 2QD later this month but I've done some research (Even though I'm still had no idea what it's about), is GE62 gonna get upgraded? Well actually my budget was below RM5K that's why I'm going for this machine. By next week, ge series @ skylake is reaching our shore

de~sign "ing" Senior Member 3,102 posts Joined: May 2005 From: Penang ̡͌l̡̡̡	QUOTE(xFrostKnightz @ Nov 19 2015, 12:38 PM) Is there any difference on prices if I choose to buy GE62 2QD not in Penang but in KL? Some birdies told me it's cheaper in Lowyat Plaza. Is buying from Gadget Zone better? It cost about the same as the MSI concept shop (RM4599) the birdies told you is true as really some seller is really cheaper on Lowyat. 2nd, there is no different to get on GZ or MSI concept shop as long as its Msia set, so just choose which service you like if you purchase in Pg. (Pg will just sold follow retailer price)

If what you said is true which means as long as it's msia set the price it's the same isn't it? Example you buy a car, in different showroom they also give different discount as long as they get the customer. Same apply to IT stuff, some shop get more unit so their cost is lower so better price they can offer.

de~sign "ing" Senior Member 3,102 posts Joined: May 2005 From: Penang ̡͌l̡̡̡	QUOTE(xFrostKnightz @ Nov 19 2015, 08:18 PM) Ok so I've been told by a salesman from the MSI concept shop in Komtar and they recommended me to get MSI GE62 6QC as the specs are similar (except it comes with Skylake) and it's cheaper compared to MSI GE62 2QD. The only downside is that it doesn't have the Multi-Colour Steelseries keyboard and it comes only with 4 GB of RAM which I'm planning to buy another 4GB of RAM. What do you think? Should I go for the GE62 6QC or GE62 2QD? From review, you barely notice different on performance increase. But battery life should able to notice it. Its always bettter getting new gen if price is not much different.

de~sign "ing" Senior Member 3,102 posts Joined: May 2005 From: Penang ̡͌l̡̡̡	QUOTE(Dannyoski @ Nov 26 2015, 11:25 PM) Caddy is a mechanism part that replace your internal dvd/bluray drive into a hdd/ssd drive. This allow you to add in additional storage to your laptop. Example of MSI PE60/70, it came with only 2 storage slot. They are the m.2 2280 pcie slot and a regular hdd slot. By adding a caddy drive, I can have 3 storage slot. Here's my setup: 1. M.2 2280 pcie ssd slot - still empty waiting for pcie ssd price drop 2. Ori hdd sata slot. Replaced with a 250g ssd for window os. 3. Caddy drive. Added 512g ssd for data. Was thinking to add m.2 sata 250g ssd to the pcie slot and raid 0 with my exisitng 250g ssd while waiitng for pcie price to drop.....still thinking....... Dont need to wait its drop, the price different and actual user can feel is unbalance, you barely can feel anything compare Sata3 (500mb/s) vs PCIE (1.5gb/s), its only talking about few second different from boot up.
