I immediately replaced the tim with IC 5 diamond 7 carrot and saw a 10c drop (highly recommended) other than that i recommend giving this a go http://forum.techinferno.com/msi/4185-fan-control.html im using it currently. very good stuff

Has anyone found out a way to control the fan speed? My temps reach 80c and while i know that's not bad at all the fans barely rev up anywhere near to what coolerboost 2 provides when i activate it Anyway to change the way the fan activates at certain temps, much like msi afterburner's fan curve.

Hey guys. So I've just bought a gt60 20d 3k ips edition to which has the following specs 4700MQ 780m GTX 16GB 1600mhz 1TB + 3x 128gb SSD with super raid 2 3k WQHD+ (2880x1620) 15.6 lcd display What should I start by doing? I've done a little research and I hear something about lowering the voltage of the 4700mq and raising the clocks? What about the graphics card? I would hope to overclock it as the 3k display will definitely need some more horse power. How do I go about doing this on a laptop, whats best for MSI? I've done flashing awhile ago but this is something I'd better be safer asking about beforehand. Any help would be appreciated guys!

Got it back yesterday. the graphics card blew it seems. Bet it was those damn 320.18 drivers.

Nope the only thing its ever used for is playing games. The temps were fine with the graphics card never going past 83c and the cpu at max 75c. I even bought the U3 coolermaster pad for it. Yeah It was driving me crazy, I couldn't for the life of me figure out how swapping over to a hdmi display could blow the graphics card....considering its not even plugged into it... Sent it back today to OC UK. Will report back lol.

As soon as I put the hdmi port in. It was perfectly fine beforehand. Its literally forced displays on that and even when I go to use the hdmi port now for any tv it always uses the hd 4000. It even says HD4000 is being used in resolution settings.

So the other day I plugged in my hdmi port to use my tv as the display and the display on the laptop goes blank and then a blank screen is on the tv then it just shifts back to the laptop only this time its using the igpu and everytime I try to swap back to the gtx 680 i get a message saying this display is not using an nvidia gpu so I can't use the nvidia drivers. I've tried these things Formatted Twice System restored uninstalled new/older drivers of both the nvidia and intel cmos restart taking the graphics card out booting up and then shutting down and inserting it again trying a different hdmi cable and a different screen. Disabling in device manager and restarting It just won't swap back to the dedicated gpu. So has the hdmi socket short circuited the gpu and now its dead? it just says error 43 in the device manager and in gpu its all 0 core and memory its just not being used at all. I'm gonna try and send it back. Hopefully i'll get somewhere....But in anycase I've just inherited a large paperweight!!! Yay.

Hey I was wondering if I'm able to fit better fans inside my p170em and if anyone has done anything like that and if they could recommend some better fans.

Havent done much on the overclock mem wise as i hear the 4gb limits the amount quite abit but as it stands its +300 atm

Just purchased a Clevo p170em (OC UK Destroyer, apparently) off ebay worth 2000 for only a 1000 lol check these specs out and tell me what you guys think 3840qm 4gb gtx 680m 16gb corsair 1600 vengeance ram 60gb ssd intel 830 for the OS 240GB corsair force 3 Samsung slimline 4x blu ray and I even got a SWISS GEAR PEGASUS 17 bag thrown in worth 60 as well lol needless to say the guy was quite annoyed. I'm absolutely loving this laptop and as my first one I'm damn impressed. I used to think laptops could never reach the heights of desktop gaming but now they are getting very close. I've overclocked the 680m already as I hear the Clevo 4gb cards are one of the betters out there for OC'ing. I've only got it to 953 core atm but I plan on getting the 1v voltage mod and seeing where i can go from there. Also am I the only one who keeps playing with the keyboard lights lol?

Lol whatever it had it wasn't very good...Wasn't even a decent laptop either just a single core. Not sure if it's still alive, doubt it very much.

Holy damn that's a hot temp...not as bad as my friends who hit the tjmax 105 just from browsing lol :/

Hey guys I have a P170EM with the 4gb gtx 680, 16gb ram and 3840qm. and I've never done this before anyone mind giving me some help? my brick says 100-240AC input so is that okay? Thanks.
