Msi ge60 2pc apache pro fan problem

So 2 days ago, while I was playing some games. I noticed that my fan made a weird noise. Like the fanblades are hitting something. So I opened the notebook up and cleaned it from dust, even though there really wasn't that much dust.
I looked at the fan if it was hitting something but I really can't see anything? What could be the problem. I only have this notebook for like 3 months and I'm not really looking forward to sending it to msi and having to do without my notebook for a few weeks. I need it at home and at school.
Thank you.

that rattling noise sems to be fan layer is wearing off early :/ so yeah for it to be fixed free you would sadly have to send it to MSI Service in your country where they will open your laptop up have look at fan and confirm that fan is wearing out so they will re-place it with new one under warranty if you still have vaild warranty

FPS / Stuttering Issues (Overheat , Speedstep Issues ? ) MSI GE60 2PE APACHE PRO

**EDIT**
Unable to post direct image links , please ad HTTP:// before links
Good evening Fellow Gamers and Adepts.
I come to you tonight with a serious doubt , which has rattled me for a while , and after some intense troubleshooting i have came up blank.
Here's the deal , as stated , i have a MSI GE60 2PE apache Pro
Now , playing cs go has been the bane of my existence, i am aware there are heating issues with this laptop , but those have been fixed by a Thermal repaste, a cooling pad and the backplate removed.
Now i have no more throttling of CPU , and GPU appears to handle fine aswell; the thing is i keep having MASSIVE lag spikes in CS:GO , and apparently they are being cause by CPU issues.
Image for clarification .
(Standart situation , notice the relative low fps for a old game)

After a few seconds the following occurs
imgur.com/cJ2Ly80,27y1P5C,aq30R4r#1
Notice the fps drop and the CPU frequency percent alert in game
another shot of this in console so you can see the several occurrences
imgur.com/cJ2Ly80,27y1P5C,aq30R4r#2
now keep in mind that these are the lowest game settings, in Fullscreen windowed mode , if i even CONSIDER putting it on standart fullscreen i get unplayable jitterness and fps that range from 10 to 80 , all in a second.
Now , as i have stated i have fooled around and disabled speedstep in the bios , meaning that the cpu is always at 100%, seeing i have removed the backplate , throttling is not an issue as IXT (Intel extreme tuning) can attest.
note aswell the "active core count" spikes to 4/3 in the exact moments of the stutters, meaning that both problems should , in theory , be connected .

Details of IXT
gyazo.com/1f03a344b9ac2642b1a885ee0a8ea078
can ANYONE give me an ideia of whats going on ? i rather enjoy playing with games with friends , but this is driving me up the wall..
Lastest NVIDIA / Laptop drivers installed ; Bios Updated and EC firmware aswell.
Thank you for your time guys x)

MSI GE60 2PF (Apache Pro)-609UK

Hi All
I'm new to forum so hello!
I'm looking to buy my son a mid-range gaming laptop, he doesn't need anything crazy fast and have come across the MSI GE60 2PF Apache Pro.
Only thing is, when I do a search for the laptop itself in a search engine it doesn't bring that information up about it. The specs according to the website are as follows:
Intel® Core™ i7-4810MQ Quad Core Processor
15.6" Full HD Screen
Microsoft Windows 8.1 64-bit
16GB DDR3 RAM
128GB SSD + 1000GB 7200 RPM HDD
DVD Rewriter
Dedicated GTX 860M 2GB Graphics
USB3 | HDMI | Bluetooth
2 Year MSI Warranty
Does anybody know any more about this laptop?
Thanks

Yeah, that's the one. Was looking for more "hands on" experience though.
The real issue I have is that this laptop is about £200 cheaper than the GE60 2PE laptop. I can't see any differences with the two other than the PF has the 4810 and the PE has the 4710 processor. Just seems a tad weird that the PF is a lot cheaper... Just wondering if I'm missing something glaringly obvious?

MSi GE60 2QE Apache Pro - Simple Questions

Hi,
I just purchased my laptop yesterday, and overall I'm quite happy with it! I do have a couple of questions:
1) My idle temperature of my GPU is around 50 degrees, which is a little warmer than my old laptop. Is also true for you other MSi notebook owners?
2) After installing some software and games, I am somewhat unhappy at the read/write speeds of the given 1TB HDD. I was thinking of installing a SSD to speed everything up. After taking a look at the specifications online, I see that there is also an mSATA socket for a SSD.
a) The specifications indicate that its up to 128GB. Is this what MSi could potential provide default? Can I install a larger mSATA SSD (e.g. 256GB), or am I limited to at most 128GB?
b) Can I have both the mSATA SSD and the 1TB HDD inside the notebook?
c) If (b) is true, can I clone the data (OS,apps,etc) from the HDD to the SSD, and boot the computer from the mSATA SSD?
I have only take a quick search, but I saw threads how some users were having issues with the mSATA with their own respective notebook. Is there anything I should know or is there a guide in order to properly add an additional SSD and set it as a boot?
Thanks for all your help

1) Your temperature seems normal for me. I have a GE60 2QE sample here and it also got 90~93 degree while running FurMark, just a maximum.
2)
a) I think 256GB is not a big deal, but if you want to make sure, find the post on Internet to see if any one had installed it. I don't think there's any limitation to install SSD more than 128GB.
b) Yes, your model has at least 1 mSATA port for SSD.
c) Yes, run the BurnRecovery (the icon on Desktop) to build a recovery image (from hidden partition) and recover it to your newly purchased SSD.
Remember to buy SSDs for SATA interface, not PCI-E interface.

Say Goodbye to my old desktop! Got my new high mobility and performance MSI GE70 2PC Apache!

Time to get rid of my old PC, which is barely can run latest games. So, after I made some researches online, I decided to buy MSI GE60 2PC Apache. It perfectly matches my budget.
The box inside comes with black design. The notebook is protected by a black sleeve.
The packing includes a power adapter, MSI branded gaming mouse, a battery, CD, and manuals. I especially like the adaptor design in slim and compact size.
The metal brush front cover looks gorgeous. I like the red dragon badge with backlight enabled. This is one of my favorites in this notebook. I believe it will make my new notebook stand out from the other Apxle notebooks when I use it in my campus. “The fruit” is not the only shining star anymore. 
There is a red line on the side~~
Here comes my new notebook. Btw, the packing also comes with a MSI bag.
The labels says it features with Matrix Display (extend to 3 external monitors), Killer lan (network for gaming applications), Steelseries keyboard, and Audio Boost.
The touch pad is in one piece. Again, metal brush!!
Intel i7 and NVIDIA GTX 850M inside of my new baby. 
Audio system is powered by DYNAUDIO. As I checked online, this is a Danish brand and seems to be very famous. 
Steelseries keyboard~ I think I don’t need to mention what Steelseries is. All gamers should know it.
I found one thing very special that the Windows key is moved to the right. According to MSI website, it is for games not to mis-touch the Windows key in gameplay. Very ergonomic design for gamers.
It has an individual numerical key area. Good for my accounting courses.
He he he… I used my Cannon digital camera for below full color backlight keyboard picture! I tried several shots. This one is the best one to show. Anyway, the point here is the color configurations can be customized!!
720P webcam!
On the left, you can find one HDMI, two USB3.0, golden audio jack with Audio Boost feature, and one combo memory card slot.
On the right, you can find one RJ-45 with Killer lan feature, one VGA port, two USB2.0, and BD Combo drive.
The panel can be opened up to roughly 135 degree. I think it is good enough. I am not going to use it as a tablet.
Sound by DYNAUDIO with 2.1 surround audio channel!
The close-up of the shining dragon logo on the front cover.
I find a secret feature.
When the notebook is running by Intel integrated graphics, the power indicator shows blue. However, when it is running by NVIDIA graphics, the indicator shows red.
Very good feature for me to know if the NV graphics is on when I play games.
Signal Indicators show wireless, Bluetooth, hard disk, and power status.
Okay, now it is the time to start the live demo.
Oops…my friend is calling me….need to go out with my friend now. After I finish the basic settings, I will find time to make real gameplay demo and share with you later.

Back again for my part 2 sharing.
Here is my testing result of 3DMARK on my MSI GE60 2PC Apache.
X7654
Boot up time - SSD
Sleeping dog - FPS
Need for Speed – FPS average 60 FPS. (this game only supports max 60FPS)
All settings are set to max
Conclusion:
The metal brush design on front and keyboard sides looks decent. I love its 17” FHD display which is good for playing games, watching videos, typing my reports in a comfortable way. After I got this, it is difficult for me to go back to smaller display.
I expected that online streaming could cost a lot of system resource. However, its Gamecaster Xplit online streaming feature surprised me! No lag and very easy to use! Its quick boot-up time with SSD and GTX 850M gave me a whole new PC experience.
The Haswell i7-4700HQ and NVIDIA GTX 850M are sufficient enough for games and online streaming. Not to mention it also carries Steelseries keyboard which is a Plus when I play games. I am glad that I decided to buy this GE70 2PC Apache to replace my old desktop because it can satisfy all my needs for gaming, multimedia, and document editing.
If you have the same demand as me and also looking for a notebook, it is worthy to give it a shot on MSI GE70 2PC Apache!!

[Help!] A problem with the display of my GE60 2PE Apache Pro

I just got a new GE60 2PE Apache Pro and this is my first msi laptop I've ever had. I don't know what's seem to be the cause of my msi, but the display is always black and kind of glitchy at first when I just start it up.
The msi logo and the Windows 8's blue flag is also displaying fine, but after that on other Windows 8 OS, it's suppose to show the password screen. But instead, it's just black with several glitching white color. It's solved after pressing the windows button + P, which is supposed to control the dual monitor settings. After that, I checked on the display settings in the control panel and my device manager it's like this:
From the display settings and device manager, it seems that I kind of like have two monitors installed in my msi. It looks like one monitor for my Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600, and the other one is for my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M, although I don't know which one's running which. And it seems like the default display screen on my msi is the 2nd monitor (See from the display settings in control panel) because the 1st monitor is like plain black or acted like a projector in which I can either duplicate, extend, or turn it off using the PC Screen Only option when I press the windows + P.
But thinking back to every time I turn on my msi, the screen is black and I have to press windows + P to be able to actually see the display. Does this mean that every time I turn the PC on, the monitor is running the 1st one while the actual thing is running in the 2nd screen?
Is there any way to fix this so every time I turn it on I don't have to press windows + P to actually see the display? I'm having trouble because sometimes pressing windows + P doesn't work and I have to restart again using the power button to try and see does the windows + P will work the second try. Please help

Delete, remove, uninstall, whatever term you'd like to use for getting rid of it from your device manager.
Disabling it won't help, it'll still be there.
Judging by what I'm seeing, there's an extra entry for a monitor and it's most likely the issue that's causing your screen to misbehave.
Okay, so here's an update about the current situation:
I did gather up the courage to uninstall both Generic PnP Monitor from the Device Manager. Everything seems okay after I uninstalled it, the screen is not off, it's just as before. After I uninstalled both monitors from the Device Manager, I tried to see the Display Settings, but it is still showing two monitors (With the 2nd monitor displaying my actual screen and the 1st is plain black). I thought maybe it has to be restarted for it to take effects. So I shut it down, and boot it again (Because so far just doing a normal restart won't occur with the black screen. The "shut down and boot" is how do the black screen occurs again.) I really hope that the problem is fixed, but it's still the same. Showing the black screen with some glitching white stripes, and I have to press the Windows + P to get to the actual screen again. After I look up the Device Manager again, here's what's shown:
The Generic PnP Monitor showed up again! And it's two of them. So is there any other solution or any idea of what's causing this?
Thanks for all the help so far.

Request for BIOS: GE60 2PE Apache Pro

Hello Svet.
From what I have read, you can unlock the BIOS features from MSI laptops.
I have a MSI GE 2PE Apache Pro with BIOS E16GFIMS.518 retrieved from www . msi . com/product/nb/GE60_2PE_Apache_Pro.html
My installed OS is Windows 8.1 x64 English
I understand that this is a performance laptop, but I am hopping that from unlocking the BIOS, I can change something in order to make it quieter, namely stop the fan when the PC is in idle and some other settings in order to increase the autonomy. Is that possible?
Also, please feel free to PM me with the usual amount for the donation.
Thank you and keep the good work.

well done

Mac Pro Fan Problem

Hi, I have been having some problems with a Mac Pro I have been working with. At the Start-up the Fan goes to top speed and once it logs-in the fan is still pretty loud. I've checking the Temperature of all the computer parts via a Temperature Diode, and its normal and not high. After searching the internet for hours looking for posts that were for the Mac Pro and not for the MacBook Pro (which comes up in about all the searches using the words Mac Pro Fan Problem) and I found some software all of which is not for Mac Pro's. Is there any application I can run do reduce the RPM of the Fans, Reset the Fan Speeds to only turn on when it get hot, or something along those lines.

Thats odd, seeing as Apple have it listed in the Support article:
To reset the SMC on a Mac Pro:
1) From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
2) Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
3) Wait at least fifteen seconds.
4) Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time. Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
5) Press the power button to start up your computer.
It does exactly the same thing as the SMC_RST button, simply by removing all power from the system. I would assume the reason for this would be that the SMC settings are stored in RAM, which is erased once the power is removed from the board, hence the minimum 15 secs wait which gives time for the capacitors in the power supply and system to discharge.
So yeah, it does do the trick, or has done for me in the past a few times.

Month Owned MSI GE60 Apache Pro Fan Issues

Hi everyone,
I have had my MSI GE60 Apachce Pro 15" laptop for a little over a month now.
For the first month, I could barely hear the fans when leaving the laptop idle or using non-power hungry applications that do not involve gaming, such as browsing the web or watching videos. Now, however, the fan seems to always be running at a medium intensity, even when idle. As soon as I boot up the laptop, the fan is much more noisy than it used to be and stays that way.
The program HWinfo64 shows my CPU temperature at usually 41 degrees Celsius. Moreover, turning on the Cooler Blaster feature does not decrease the advertised 5-10% temperatures either. In fact, it increases the heat to around 42-43 degrees Celsius.
My desk is usually completely dust free, so I do not think dust is the issue here. I will have to open up the back to be completely sure, but I do not want to void my warranty for something as silly as cleaning it out (There is a void sticker right above one of the necessary screws to remove the back casing. I will contact MSI to inquire about this because I read that MSI will allow owners to remove this sticker in certain locations without voiding the warranty).
Could there be any other reason besides dust that could make my fans this noisy? Does anyone have suggestions on improving it? Thank you.

Quote from: James D on 12-May-14, 09:11:18
Try to remove battery and hold power button for 5 sec.
I tried that a few times, but it did not work. The fan noise is becoming unbearable tbh. Considering selling it now :/
