MSI Gt70 dominator gtx 870m touch panel issue

Hi!
The touchpanel of mine msi gt70 dominator stopped working after I upgradded the EC.
I cant use the Fan boost anymore. I still can activate or deactivate wifi through SCM but there is no option to use the Fanboost. Can anyone help me ?

Yes you probably need BIOS too to work with newest EC.
But tell what are your current BIOS and EC versions 1st,
look for them in BIOS setup system information

GT70 Dominator screen and touch buttons issue

Hi guys
Got myself a GT70 Dominator and everything works well except for the screen and touch buttons sometimes.
First of all the screen. It works well BUT it starts to flicker sometimes. The screen is working and then suddenly it just starts to flicker and everything is doubled for 20-40 seconds. I have the latest GPU drivers for my nvidia and intel GPU's.
And the thing with my touch buttons is that, the G button, the one left of the G button and the Media player button are not working(Plane mode, keyboard lighting and cooling buttons are all working).
Any help is much appreciated!
UPDATE: The touch buttons started working again just out of the blue ...

I've never heard of something like that with the screen. If it's still rather new, I'd probably consider sending it back to MSI for them to look at it.

MSI GT70 dominator pro 890 For workstation

Ive posted this on the 'workstation' section, as it would fit better there, but my laptop is technically the gaming. So, yes it is a double post one in each forum.
Wanted to know if my laptop was good for rendering, if there were any tips or tricks for using my laptop for video editing, or any tips or tricks for using vegas pro 13 in general. Newbie to this program, normally use cyberlink powerdirector 12.

Question of the rendering process. If I have gpu accelerated turned on in normal preferences, but render using cpu only in the actual final render as options screen,, my 15 min movie takes about 22 min. Temps skyrocket cpu wise for first 5 seconds then calm to 90c (80c with turbo fan), gpu gets to 70c (60c with turbo fan). CPU is around 80% resourced, gpu core max, memory clock max, gpu load 15%.
But if I have same gpu acceleration on main preferences, and change to gpu rendering only under the actual final rendering as options, it takes 28 min, cpu is at 68% (80c max fan), gpu core and memory max, gpu load up from 15% to 30%, memory controller up from 3% to 11% (65c temps).
So what I see is that gpu rendering preferred options but render cpu only, uses some gpu but more cpu, and gives faster results, than total gpu rendering with more gpu power and less cpu.
Shouldn't gpu rendering be far quicker than cpu? I know my cpu is good, but thought that the 880m would definitely beat it out in rendering.

Normally I would like to say this is very good choice, but since MSI have real workstation, I recommend you check below link to find the real machine for OpenGL graphics works!!

Yup, great recommendation, and also what I thought and spent about 2 weeks researching before not buying. The most often supplied k2000m chip is crap. What it does for professional programs could be compared to the gtx 755m. The k3000 gpu is a decent mid range chip, but the k3000m is a low end. I'd compare it to the gtx 765m for gaming. Only real benefit would be specific drivers. The k4000m is the equivalent of the 870m but for professional. But isn't offered until you hit the $3000 mark. Reading so many reviews and watching several youtube videos showing side by side geoforce vs quaddro, and some programs like photoshop and vegas pro are actually rendered quicker on the geoforce. While Autodesk and maya were within a min of each other.
I know you probably saw this chart
I saw it to, which in the very beginning of my laptop search I thought I had found the perfect laptop. But after reading user forums, talking to/with people first hand, then watching some you tube showing side by side 780m vs 3100m rendering. I decided that until I could get the 4100m at a decent price, the 880m would suite me well.
The 'workstation' laptops are also 4700mq not the 4800-4810mq.

Heres one of photoshop comparison
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryf4b6BMjNk
heres a 2 year old maya comparison. While this one is a little off. I found one a few weeks ago that was perfect and I really should've short cutted it. But for maya and solid works, the geoforce is either right behind or right ahead for speed. But when it comes to quality, the quaddro's cant be touched.
When I use solidworks/maya for a project, normally its just something really quick. In which 100% detail isn't important, but speed is. If/when I need a perfect product, that's what the pc is for. My major projects even on a k4100m (the best mobile chip) it would take countless hours to render. My pc, dual titan black, would take 30-60 min. So I could use laptop to start and work with project, the 880m does a great job at in project editing acceleration, then i save file/settings export. Load on pc, make sure everythings still good, and render on there. But typical large projects are better done on high dpi mouse, mechanical keyboard, and larger monitors.
I'm not slamming you at all. Thanks for the comment, typically you'd be 100% correct. And if i didn't have a full out rendering pc, that would be my only option. Plus, i hope you or anyone reading this learned a little something. Or if im wrong somewhere, i can be corrected and learn something.

MSI GT70 Dominator FPS problems.

I recently bought the the MSI GT70 Dominator, and Ive been having some issues with frame rate. Unturned only runs at 25 fps sometimes, and I can't get minecraft over 30fps. League of Legends sometimes dips below 30 fps on max settings, but also sometimes gets above 60fps. Why are my frame rates so unpredictable, and why cant I get minecraft over 30 fps??
Thanks for the help

Do you have GTX 880M? If so you should use 327.23 Drivers. If it is working fine with them then it is famous 880M bug. I suggest you to RMA laptop then and wait couple months to buy GT72 with 880MX or whatever GPU but not 880M.
And you need to google proper modded inf file for this new GPU in 327.23. Search at laptopvideo2go or ask somebody at some forums to add 880M IDs
However if those drivers will not help and you already tried "launch with high performance Gnvidia GPU" then check temperatures. If it goes above 80-90 then it is throttling issues. Overheating.

MSI GT70 Dominator Pro Inconsistent Frames

I have MSI GT70 Dominator Pro and I noticed that there has been slight decrease in game performance after playing the game for 7-8 hours. I am currently playing Tomb Raider 2013 and before I started playing the game I did a overall performance test of my laptop with a built in benchmark.
My Specs:
Intel Core I7-4800mq
Nividia Geforece GTX 880M 8GB
1920*1080 LCD 17.3 inch Screen
16 GB Memory
1TB 7200RPM-128GB SSD
Initial Benchmark before playing the game.
Tomb Raider (2013) on Ultimate setting (Tressfx on)
Min-34
Max-68.0
Avg-49.1
Post Benchmark after playing for 7-8 hours
Tomb Raider (2013) on Ultimate setting (Tressfx on)
Min-28.2
Max-58.0
Avg-40.7
Note: GPU and CPU same temperature on both initial benchmark and post benchmark. GPU (max-76C) and CPU (Max (55C). Same background programs and same video card drivers and same game version. I would like to know why there has been decrease in performance even though the factors are the same.

Welcome to the MSI club buddy! ....there have been quite a number or threads about inconsistent/low frame rates. I too own an MSI GT60 with GTX870M and seeing inconsistent frame rates. Hope some vbios update fixes this

MSI GT70 2PC-1044US - HDMI / GPU / FAN issues

MSI GT70 2PC-1044US - HDMI / GPU / FAN issues
I am having trouble with my HDMI port on a brand new MSI GT70 2PC-1044US . Whenever I plug my HDMI cable from my notebook to the TV, after a few minutes (5 - 20 minutes), my fan will start reving at around 5k RPMs and sounds like a jet engine. When this happens, according to MSI Dragon Gaming Center tool/monitor, the GPU temp reading hits 255 degrees Celsius, which is clearly a glitch. I used another monitor, msi afterburner, and when this HDMI problem happens, this tool reads a normal 40 degrees Celsius.
Here are the things I have tried so far but the problem keeps reoccurring:
1. Called MSI tech support, sent me the link to the newest BIOS and updated it
2. Called MSI tech support again, claimed the HDMI is controlled by the intel graphic controller, and they recommended that i update intel drivers (every software tool on my notebook says it's the NVIDIA GPU that controls the HDMI port /shrug???), so i did this as well.
3. Called MSI teck support again, they suggested I send the notebook back to MSI so they could take a look at the hardware. I did not do this because I did not trust the tech guy and did not want to wait a few weeks to get my notebook back
4. Luckily, the store I bought my notebook at was nice enough to replace my notebook for a new one. I got home, tested it, and the same thing happened. So I think we eliminated faulty hardware.
So now what? What else can I try?

have you done EC reset? https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/how-to-reset-the-ec-embedded-controller
can you try to plug the HDMI into your dell screen[insteal of sharp TV] to check if the same issue will hapends?
Install latest Intel GPU drivers from: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/graphics
then retest
-Yes, I did the full EC reset. Once the EC flash was done, I removed the power cord from the back and the battery and let it sit for a few minutes before restarting.
- My Dell monitor is old, and does not have an HDMI port, but I will try a different cable on a different TV.
-I already have the most recent intel graphic controller drivers, this one of the things the MSI tech support guys asked me to do by phone

MSI GT70 Dominator Temperatures

Hello I recently bought a MSI GT70 Dominator with Intel i7-4810 MQ & GTX870M 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 GTA IV (with modifications) that the cpu temp was at 90C!
The GPU was around there too but it lowered quickly down to 50C and the cpu temp is still sitting at 70C right now..
I remember when i first got this thing it used to sit at 40c idle cpu and like 35c GPU
When i turn it on it stays at 40c cpu and 35c gpu but if i play GTA IV the temps go up fast.
I do not have a laptop cooler? would that help in this situation?
I just got it in May
Thanks!

Honestly, you should be sitting at around 40C if your room temperature is 25C, when you're at your desktop.
During games, going up to 85C or 90C isn't terrible, but it shouldn't really get any higher than 90C, even with the newer 4th gen Core i7's and GTX7xx/GTX8xx cards.
You might consider doing a repaste job on the heatsink compound for the CPU and GPU. That can play a very significant part in keeping your temperatures lower. Just make sure you use a good silver based compound (like arctic silver MX5 for example), these will provide better cooling than normal heatsink compound.

MSI GT70 Dominator GPU Throttling Issues

Hello everyone, I'm new to these forums, but figured someone on here might have an answer to my problems. I received my GT70 Dominator yesterday, and am having serious trouble getting it to run Titanfall properly. By default I used the Nvidia Experience recommended settings which were 1080p, and High across the board. This made sense because I bought this laptop to replace my desktop which has a Core i5 2400, 8GB Ram, and a GTX 760 in it. My GT70 has the Core i7 4800HQ, 16GB Ram, and the GTX 870M. The laptop's CPU should be more powerful, and the GPU should be within 10%. Titanfall runs at the same settings on my Desktop Flawlessly, but the framerate drop on this laptop is HUGE. The game will start around 60FPS, but will almost immediately start dropping in to the 20's. The FPS fluctuate constantly.
I've tried running MSI Afterburner to see exactly what speeds the GPU is running at under load. Unfortuantely it can't display the info yet (the 870m must be too new.) I tried GPUZ then, and it just says the GPU's specs (doesn't show moment to moment actual numbers.) However the MSI Kombustor software does display the Core speed and Throttle speeds. The Core Speeds almost instantly go down to 888Mhz, and drop off from there. The Throttle speeds go from 754Mhz, to 724Mhz. This is before the GPU even hits the 80C tempature limit. I've never seen this GPU over 900Mhz where 941Mhz should be it's baseclock (which I always thought was the minimum.) Running at 724Mhz whould net between a 20-25% performance drop, and would make sense why Titanfall can't keep up with my Desktop performance.
Has anyone else come across this issue? Has anyone found a way to disable, or change the throttling settings? If I can't fix this then the laptop really doesn't perform at the level I need it to.

Quote from: hch;100907
NV changed the way GPU works on GTX TITAN and GTX 700 Series, maybe try to increasing the temperature target with some third-party software, then you can raise the performance.
Sorry GTX 870M doesn't work with this.
But the dropping behavior seems normal, cause it will start dropping when hits its temperature limit. that's probably why it acted this way.
Think you can try the methods other mentioned maybe it's the setting or driver version.

MSI GT70 20C WIN 8.1 UPGRADE ISSUES!!!!

Hello everyone A bit of a quagmire here. I have a new MSI GT70 20C. It is an awesome gaming machine to say the least. I decided to choose the best of two evils and decided to upgrade to WIN 8.1.....
Here is the issue:
1:Uninstalled the old Killer E2200 LAN/WLAN/BT 4.0 Drivers.
2:Installed the new Drivers provided by MSI and all work except LAN.
3:Uninstalled everything and tried again but this time noticed that when device manager is open and installing the driver pack, the device manager refreshed about 10 times or so and it is all fine until after the program says to reboot then the LAN is not working again. I proceeded to uninstall and re-install this time to cancel the install as I realized that there is something in the driver pack that is conflicting with windows during the install process. I restarted the system and now it all works.
This is not just a request for assistance from support but also a really strange assist. Please respond if anyone encounters the same situation.

I've got the newer/newest gt70 dominator pro, which came with windows 8.1 installed.
So I don't have the same issue as you.
But with killer and drivers for it, ive had nothing but problems.
As of right now, I deleted the killer suite and only have drivers installed. The LAN driver in my device manager shows the yellow exclamation mark, but it works. So that's where I am and that's where im choosing to stay.
I will end up, and soon, getting an intel wireless card, but not sure if you can replace the lan as I think that might be part of the board.

MSI GT70 DOMINATOR 2PC + MSI afterburner help ¡¡¡

Hey guys need your help, im new on gaming laptops, so this it's my problem, recently i bought an MSI GT70 2PC with GTX 870m, download the msi afterburner to check the temperatures of the graphics card, but dont let me do anything, only i can change the clock and nothing more, why happens that? anyone know how can modify the fan speed, because my graphics card got 75-80 ªc when i play

The absolute maximum of the GPU is 93 C, at that temperature it should clock down automatically - if you stay below 90 C everything is OK; my readings hover on about 80 - 85 C max.
With this you probably could set the fan to about 60 -70% with much less noise and decent cooling if you want to be on the safe side:

Pixelated Graphics and Sound Issue (Gt70 2pc dominator gtx 870m)

Sup.
Bought my first MSI gaming notebook a couple days ago. It's fairly nice but it seems I'm having a couple issues.
First:
Sound issue. I have a Turtlebeach Z22 headset. When using it on my MSI laptop I get a series of pops every couple words. The Z22 uses both usb and aux for the mic/headphones and I have tried everything from swithcing jacks, usb ports, updating drivers and playing around with realtek settings. No dice.
Second: For some reason in game cutscenes have a lot of pixelation.
I have tried crysis 2 and farcry 3 so far on max settings. Any sort of cutscene that uses a video clip (like Farcry's video tutorials) has a lot of pixelation and is sometimes fuzzy. The games are usually fine for the most part. I have updated my gfx drivers played with gfx setting and set launching options to Nvidia as global.
Any ideas?

Do you mean the pop sound? It would be better if you can share a video or sound record of the situation.

Quiet manay people talk about the issue, try to change the game setting to improve the situation.

GT70 2PC Dominator GTX 870M

When i get to pick file for BIOS update, shall i take 50w or 70w version?
Little confusing what 70w mean, watts or screen size?

Quote from: fstaengler;109016
thanks Zipper, then 50w it is.
yes, my ASUS g750 running win8.1 never have any shutdown issues, while this GT70 seem to fail to shutdown every now and then.
additionally, cooling doesnt seem to be as good as it was a month ago...
is there any way to control default rpm of the fan? i would raise it by 15%, so the laptop stays cool for general use.
Does the shut down issue happens recently?
Can you share more details of you system configuration and the shut down issue?
For example when does it happen normally, is there a certain task or program you're running or is there a BSOD showing up?

Where are the downloads for GT70 Dominator (GTX 970M)?

Original post https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=184675.0
I've looked very hard but I just can't seem to find where the downloads are for the GT70 (GTX 970M), also known as GT70-2QD. I've even registered my product but it doesn't change anything.
GT60 (GTX 970M) seems to suffer the same problem.
On the other hand, GT72 (GTX 970M) has the downloads but I'm not sure if I can use them (BIOS, Drivers etc).
Any help would be much appreciated :cool:

I'm talking about the new GT60 and GT70 with the GTX 970M..... they just came out lol
i read what you said but there is no drivers appearing for any of the GT60 or GT70 at all it just appear empty box on drivers section :/
since when i search on model you gave the first link i get goes to this
GT70 2QD-2292US DOMINATOR model and when i click on Support it throws me empty box bellow no drivers nothing.
The model it takes me to says it has GTX 970M so yeah still no drivers under support tab at http://ca.msi.com/product/nb/GT70_2QD2292US_Dominator.html#hero-overview
