MSI GT683 -Graphics problem = computer fried several times

hello..
first i would like to say sorry for my bad english.
i brought a MSI GT683 for little over 2 years ago because i wanted to play D3. the first 3-4 months i was playing battlefield3 because d3 was not release yet and the laptop was working with no problems. when i startet playing diablo3 i startet to experience hard FPS drop. from runing 100+ FPS it would drop to 5 fps for 10 secs every minute. after 2 weeks the laptop just shut down and i sent it to repair shop. they told me the grapiccard was fried. so after 1 month i got it back and began playing D3 and it worked fine for 2 weeks until it startet FPS drops again and 2 weeks later the laptop shut down again and again i sent it to the repair shop. and they told me the grapiccard and memory was fried. when i got it back 1 month later i decided to not play diablo3 again (what actually was the reason i brought the laptop) after the insurance ran out i fear to play games with average grapic
i have never had an MSI before this. but i used so much money on this laptop so its hard for me to see my little brothers  6-7 year old  computer runs better than my expensive laptop.. this expercience with MSI gaming laptops has really disapointed me because my friends said i should buy an MSI because they where build for gaming.. i feel i have paied 1500 euros to play league of legends
does anyone with the same laptop (MSI GT683) have had any problems like that ?
Regards
Daniel
a dissapointed gamer :(

If you have reason to believe that the repair center did not repair or diagnose the laptop properly, then you have the full right to claim the repair under warranty even when Warranty is expired, up to 6 years after Purchase in Europe. The issue however is, that 6 months after purchase the burden of proof lies with the buyer.
In other words, if you can proof that the problem with your laptop is not caused by you(mishandling, user error, etc) then the retailer has to take it in for repair under warranty.
So the question is, have you been using the laptop on surfaces that it is not intended for? IN example, are you using the laptop on your bed, your lap etc while its venting and heating ports are closed off? Thus not allowing any fresh air to come in?
Have you meddled with the fan speeds of the laptop?
Edit : Take in mind though that this EU directive is very hard to proof and stores, unless you literally press them with a copy of said directive, will try to get out of it and even if you show them directive they may still opt to go with the countries sales of goods act.
edit 2 : The directive in question is 1999/44/EC.

  • MSI GT683 graphics card lagging GTX 560M

    Okay, so i bought my GT683 back at July 2012.
    a month ago, my laptop started having BSOD, i went to the MSI store and have them check my laptop, and they fixed it, they said that the RAM was causing the BSOD and they put in new RAM.
    When i got my laptop back, the graphics card started to show bad performance.
    Even NBA2k13 runs very badly, which is a game that should be running real smooth on my specs.
    I even lag on GTA San Andreas.
    What do you guys think is the problem? You guys think i need to go get my laptop and bring it to the MSI store again?
    Thanks
    and oh yeah, when i click on the Turbo, it doesn't light up too, even though i installed the updated driver for it..

  • Bonjour computer appears several times in finder sidebar. Why?

    A computer on my network appears many times in the list of Bonjour computers. It looks like:
         Computer (14)
         Computer
         Computer (10)
         Computer (12)
    Only one is actually active, but which one? clicking the others will just bring a delay and a spinning pizza while it fails to connect.
    I am not sure if this is a Yosemite problem or not, but I've only noticed it since "up"grading both computers.
    I also can't find any discussion categories that seem to apply.

    I don't understand what SMB means.
    I don't appear to have any file sharing turned on in either of my iMacs however printer sharing is turned on in the older 24"iMac and the new machine is printing via that. Could this be the explanation for "imac-95a8c4." appearing.
    By the way it is never there if the 24" iMac is powered off but sometimes it is there if the 24"iMac is sleeping.

  • Problem - computer freezes every time a 3D game / Wine game is run

    Hello. My brother's computer is a quite powerful machine. He would be very satisfied with it if it wasn't for one thing: it freezes every time he runs any 3D game or any game using Wine.
    I have tried to do some troubleshooting, but after long time I still cannot find the cause. The problem persists. No update has fixed it yet.
    Some 3D games seem to run, some don't. I have tried AssaultCube and it worked, but when I tried Sauerbraten it froze.
    Wine games seem not to work at all, or at least that's my general impression. As a test, I tried a freeware DirectX 7 game. Froze straightaway. More complex games of course also froze.
    The problem seems to be related either to hardware or to some NVidia-specific stuff. I tried a test run of XP on this computer. It ran when it was a clean install, but when I installed NVidia drivers, it didn't boot again correctly. There was no error description as far as I remember.
    I have swapped a power supply to a higher wattage thinking that it maybe was energy starvation that took the system down. No luck.
    Output of different commands:
    "hwinfo --short": http://pastebin.com/Sj8SbvZy
    "lsmod": http://pastebin.com/dtchwqAF
    "pacman -Qi nvidia": http://pastebin.com/rhKcLUpH
    "uname -a": "Linux 2.6.35-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Aug 21 07:23:08 UTC 2010 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux"
    One more thing. Even though it's a 64-bit CPU, I'm running a 32-bit system. Would that create a problem? From what I've read online, it doesn't really seem to make that much of a difference.
    Please help me with this. I really don't know what to do.

    hello again.
    glxinfo looks good and normal
    Right.. i have been reading bout similiar issues ..like that of your system freezing..
    a reported fix would be to
      echo 1 | tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings
    as root
    and add it to the /etc/rc.local for it to be applied every boot up..
    Link of where i have gotten the info from
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … bug/151382
    Apart from that ,  i have noticed your kernel isnot up to date.. Please run your updates.. the latest kernel in the core repo at the time of writing is 2.6.36.
    Hope it works out for you
    and if the above doesnt work out..
    i would need to see your

  • MacBook video graphics problem - NOT artifacts this time, but rather boxes

    http://www.johnwaller.org/bb/topic.php?post=167#post167
    I document the problem there ... in response to someone asking me about the artifacts problem. I have gone through three MacBooks trying resolve misc. issues, and on my most recent MacBook, I never turne don Secure Virtual Memory is System Preferences, so this is a COMPLETELY different problem.
    Anyone have insight on this? I experienced it in 10.4.6, then now in 10.4.7. It seems to be a fix for the artifacts that was instituted in 10.4.7 in response, but it looks like some half-*** bake job by joe-smoe intern working for Apple this summer ....
    grrrrr...
    I spec in with the following:
    Intel Core Duo 1.83
    100GB 7200 RPM Serial-ATA drive (replaced 60GB drive)
    1GB of DDR2 (2x512)
    the rest is stock.

    As far as I can tell, the switching from 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 on my MacBook FIXED the artifacts problem, yet created this NEW problem.
    So, I did in REVERSE what I would have done in 10.4.6 to fix the artifacts problem, which NOW I'm 10.4.7 and thats.... to turn Secure Virtual Mem. ON in the Security section of the Systems Preferences.
    Whatever THAT DID, I fixed my problem. I haven't experienced the problem since about 3 days ago and I use my computer pretty hard-core ... so I WAS going to run into this problem, I would have experienced it by now - I believe.
    SO .... no official fix, but it DID seem to resolve my question here....

  • MSI GT683 graphics slow after Live Updater

    Hi there, in a moment of boredom I installed the MSI Live Updater and allowed it to update the Intel Chipset driver and I think a usb driver.  Since doing so I have had a steep drop in FPS.  I've subsiquently updated the video drivers to the latest but its made no difference.  Has anyone else had this issue or have any suggestions?  Perhaps it's changed a setting?  Is it possible to revert to the previous drivers without rebuilding? 
    Thank you

  • MSI GT683 Problem Installing Graphic Drivers

    Hi to all, I need help about my laptop MSI GT683...I have bought a graphic card because my is broken, that is Nvidia GTX560M but I have a problem: when I install Windows and I try to install the driver the screen became multicolor and I can't do anything else. I seen that when the site of the nvidia auto reconizes the graphic card the model showned is Nvidia GTX560 SE...Another problem is that in the bios the model of the notebook is GT680R and I don't know why...can you help me?

    What means "multicolor"? Do you have any picture of this symptom you described?
    The model name in the BIOS depends on the graphic card you installed. Some models re-use the same barebone of the older models and their difference is only the graphic card, so MSI may only provide one version of BIOS but will automatically detect the graphic card to change the model name in the BIOS.
    I'm not sure what's the problem you are facing but you can ask for help and contact local authorized service points.

  • Unable to sync with computer. does not recognize Iphone and wants me to restore factory settings. Tried restoring several times in past but problem persists.

    Unable to sync iphone4. iphone not recognized. wants me to restore factory settings. I've done that several times and problem persists.This has been an issue sunce buying the phone.

    Hello @dazegoneby,
    I understand that your HP Pavilion p6-2220t Desktop PC running Windows 7 used to connect to your home network without an issue, but recently it does not recognise the network. I am providing you with an HP Support document: Troubleshooting Your Wireless Network and Internet Connection (Windows 7), which has steps to help resolve issues such as this. Now I am not recommending that you do the step that asks you to reset up your router as you have other devices that are working fine so that would not be the issue.
    If the above document does not resolve your issue could you please re-post with either a screen shot of your Device Manager showing what is listed in Network Adapters or re-post with which wireless card you have.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
    Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.
