Hi there guys, I am from Dubai and own GT70 2PE with 880M. Its been great being in the forum with lots of helpful senior members willing to help. Lot to explore here at T | I specially for a noob like me

thats great info bloetschkopf, 2 things that is concerning me about the upgrading is, will it be worth it upgrade to 980M from 880M in terms of performance gained and money spent on upgrade( upgrade kit being $800 as i checked). Also on the other hand it will be definite advantage in terms of heat issue of 880M. Second thing is as i saw your benchmark results the GT72 has lower scores compared to GT 70, is it due to the unlocked Vbios is GT70.

Thanks for the reply guys. I did a repaste with Artic Silver 5. I was not able to find IC diamond here in Dubai ( thanks for suggesting Spell bound), unless i had to order it online and wait for it. for the repaste i did for both GPU and CPU. at the moment it running at 75- 80C however for Metro i did also disable the Advanced Physics option.. Out of curiosity Bloetschkopf did you upgrade your GT 70 to 980M. If so can you please guide me how you did it.

Hello I have a MSI GT70 2PE Dominator with Intel i7-4810 MQ & GTX880M and i am really worried about the temperatures it is producing.I am using the MSI Gaming Center program that came with the laptop to view temps and i discovered today that after playing Metro Last Light that the cpu temp was at 90C!The GPU was around there too but it lowered quickly down to 50C when i quit Metro and the cpu temp is still sitting at 65C right now..I remember when i first got this thing it used to sit at 40c idle cpu and like 35c GPUWhen i turn it on it stays at 40c cpu and 35c gpu but if i play Metro the temps go up fast. I would appreciate if you guys can help me sort out the issue as i dont want to burn my Laptop or is it just normal.
