Hello, I just wanted to ask what are the Hertz of the monitor for the MSI GT70 Dominator Pro ?

yeah.... never heard they build it with 120hz....

if its the same as mine it'd be 60 but since they build em all the same as far as I can tell I'd guess its the same

MSI GT70 2PE 880m Bus Interface Question

I recently purchased an MSI GT70 2PE with an nvidia 880m gpu
The question i have is should the card be running with a bus interface of x4 at all times?
gpu load when other screenshot was taken:
The above is a screenshot of gpu-z while running its render test
the bus interface always reads x4 3.0 even with games such as planetside 2 running at max settings
I am on the latest nvidia driver and did install the vbios update from msi
From other forums ive gathered it should be running at x8 when idle but should be reaching x16 when running games or stressing the card?
If so is there any way to get it to work correctly?
Edit:
The only other state i have seen it in is this:
which is x4 1.1

Probably GPU-Z isn't up-to-date with 880M; my 680M is recognized as x16.
This is probably it. Even though the 880m is a refresh of 780m and has been out a while. There are still plenty of programs and utilities that don't even identify it or know what it is. I'm sure things will get better.
If you really need/want to know if it is 4x or 16x lanes, then run a game on it with clear documentation of settings for that chip and results on a non multiplayer game. If your laptop isn't running all 16 lanes, then it should run far slower than the rest.

MSI GT70 0NC Firmware in Question? Which one is for my notebook?

I am a bit confused with the MSI firmware page for my MSI GT70 0NC Notebook. I'm running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit which one of these out of the list should I download to have the latest firmware revision for my notebook??? Confusing to see along list. Yes, my keyboard has the backlight leds.

But I am running Windows 8 So which ones or which one do I need? I already clearly posted that I am running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit Is there two updates I need if so please advise which ones for Windows 8 Pro 64-bit. Thank you!
I noticed 1504 says supports Windows 8 I flashed it and when I went into system bios I still see the same firmware version: ME FW Verision: 8.0.0.1351
Since you are using Windows 8, then go for 1504

This is ME FW, not EC FW. This is not suppose to change after EC update.
This one should change:

If you use Windows 8 OS, then go and flash 1504,
else [if you use different OS] then go and flash 1414

I updated the system bios to the latest revision. Now I'm just hopping to do the firmware upgrade. It sounds like a two part bios update for the firmware based on your reply. Please clarify your statement?
Which BIOS ver you currently has?

Adding mSATA/mSSd to a MSI GT70 2OD-407US

Hi,
I'm a new owner of an MSI GT70 (wife finally let me buy one). I'm not at all new to modding computers of varies calipers. I honestly haven't been in the game in 3 years and coming back up the ladder because the technology has changed. I've kinda been in a geeks purgatory(married and in the ARMY), so life's been really busy for me and has not allowed me to keep up with current tech.
My Question. Modding my GT70 2OD-497US:
MAXing RAM to 16GBs, Easy. that's a no brainer.
where I need help is adding mSata/mSSD to my MSI to use it as a boot drive for the Window 7 Home Premium it comes with.. Thinking about add 128/256GB as boot and recovery as well as other important files and using the 1 TB 7200RPM HDD as pure storage to run programs, videos, movies, and music off of. (I'm not a big gamer)
I have not received my MSI yet and won't touch it for another month or so. I have plenty of time to figure it out. This question been raking my brain for a week, so that's why I'm post for some help.
Any information no matter if you're "talking above my head or not" is highly appreciative. If I think I don't know what you're talking about I will ask questions and do tons of research.. I used to be at the top of the GEEK food chain, but starting at the bottom now. I don't mind admitting that. The Army and marriage takes a lot of my time.
Add-on to message: I do not know if the GT70 2OD-407US comes with the msata slot board, it should, but can't seem to verify. If not I can buy one.

So lets back this up with a number of facts.
I can't find any information about the GT70 2OD-497US so....
Does the notebook come with an SSD?
If it does, then you will have the "Super Raid" adapter that lets you put mSATA drives into the laptop.
If it does NOT, then you will NOT have the "Super Raid" adapter, and you will not be able to put mSATA drives into the laptop.....without attaining a Super Raid adapter. This is difficult. MSI will NOT sell them. If you are LUCKY, you might be able to talk to a distributor or company that offers customized MSI notebooks into selling you just the adapter, but I'm not sure they will. If they will not, you're pretty much SoL. Supposedly there was a chinese company selling the adapters, but I don't recall the name or if they still are.
In all honesty, if you don't have the adapter, I would just order a regular 2.5" SSD drive instead and live with it.
A couple of other things I can suggest.
Get at a minimum a 240/256GB SSD. You'll find that after installing Windows and such you only have roughly 75 gigs maybe left on your 128GB SSD. And I just don't think that's enough. The 240/256GB drives are cheap enough now that you shouldn't have any problems getting it.
When you partition your SSD, only partition it for about 85% of the total space (so 85% of 256GB = 215 GB). Leave the rest of it unpartitioned. This is called over-provisioning, and will help to maintain the overall speed of the SSD (read/write speed) during the entire life of the SSD. The reason it does this is because it provides more space for TRIM to work, even if you completely fill the partition you created. If you had fully partitioned the drive, and almost filled it, the speed would start to deteriorate because there isn't enough 'space' to do TRIM anymore and it has to work harder to do it, causing your overall read/write speed to decrease. This is especially bad on Samsung drives. (for more information, go search around on www.anandtech.com, plenty of good information and benchmarks to backup my statements)
Other than those tips, you should be good to go.....BUT!
The VERY FIRST THING YOU DO AFTER LOGGING INTO YOUR NEW NOTEBOOK? Please please please create the backup DVD's! MSI does not provide backup media inside the box. You need to make these on your own using the included MSI Burn Recovery software.

MSI GT70 superRAID setup

hello guys.
i just bought a new MSI GT70 Dominator. and it comes with a single 1TB HDD.
and the other harddisk tray is empty. i am planning to make a superRAID configuration.
my question. where do i buy the connector that connects the 2 mSATA mini SSDs together and then connects to the laptop? what is it called?
please check the pictures .

Best bet is ebay, very costly indeed...

MSI GT70 2OD eSATA Port

I might be asking a stupid question here but where is the eSATA port on the MSI GT70 2OD?
On the MSI website under specification it states (sorry can't seem to post a hyperlink):
eSATA 1
eSATA/USB Combo 1
If it is one of the USB ports, what type of adapter do I need to use eSATA (without loosing performance by running under USB)

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gtx-770m
According to that it is supported.
I'm not certain how well it will work, but it should. I would assume it does over Display Port, but I honestly have no idea as I don't have any.

MSI GT70 0ND-490NE

Hi! Is adapter 957-16F21P-101 (19,5V, 9,2A output) Compatible with my msi gt70 0ND-490NE (Battery says output range 19V 9,5A, old adapter had 19V, 9,5A). Im currently running on battery. Could the new adapter harm my laptop?

There's actually 2 places for the memory. 2 sticks are right under the keyboard, 2 sticks are on the bottom accessible by removing the bottom plastic panel.
My GT70 came with 12 GB (4GB x 3). 2 sticks were under the keyboard, 1 stick was on the bottom. I added another on the bottom for 16 GB.
Anyway, all that aside, if you have questions on disassembling the GT70, go to the following guide, it's very accurate:
https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/uploads/156/MS-1762_Disassembly_guide.pdf
That should be able to help you with removing the memory sticks.
If I was in your shoes, I'd consider just buying all new memory. It will probably cost more for you to RMA the memory or laptop (in shipping it to wherever it would need to go) than to just purchase some new memory.
Thanks for help
I just removed the Ram on DIMM slot 3 and now im working with 24GB ram without any problems

MSI GT70 0ND - Upgrading Video card

Hello! I currently own an MSI GT70 0ND with a gtx 675m gpu in it. Im looking into upgrading it to the 770m which I was told should fit fine. Thats mainly my question here, does anyone know for sure if the 770m will fit properly with the heat sync? The cards are identical aside from the Chip themselves on the board. I'd like to assume all would be well considering the 770m's chip is slightly smaller in width.
Thank you for any information :D

Laptopvideo2go. it's the Place to get video drivers when others fail; all new hardware gets added to the infs instantly when revealed.
NVIDIA_DEV.11E0 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M" is supported in the latest inf;
download http://uk.download.nvidia.com/Windows/335.23/335.23-notebook-win8-win7-64bit-international-whql.exe
and unzip it into a drawer.
download modified inf http://laptopvideo2go.com/infs/335series/33523_win8x64/nv_dispi.inf
copy the modified inf into the Display.Driver drawer and then run setup - hope it works. If not, try another driver with a modified inf.
It worked as far as installing, but after rebooting the laptop goes to a blue screen. Looking at the screenshot, does this have MSI bios? Will I have to flash it to MSI?

MSI GT70 0ND-622AU - Accessing BIOS/Finding Windows Product Key

Hi,
Looking for answers to the following questions on my MSI GT70 0ND-622AU please.
1. How do I access the BIOS? There's no "Press blah for setup" prompt when powering on. Only an MSI screen.
2. How can I locate my Windows 8 Product Key. There's no stickers on these laptops including under the battery. I'd like to install an SSD as the primary drive and assume I'll be needing it to install the OS.
Thanking you in advance

Per Microsoft's new rules, the key must be embedded inside of BIOS, which will only activate with matching edition.
You can use http://rweverything.com/ to check your ACPI -> MSDM to find out what your key is.
However, if you still cannot activate your OS then you will need use recovery DVDs to restore the OS back to the stock one.

Msi gt70

Hello, I am looking to buy the MSI gt70 2oc-008us laptop and I have a question about it. I have read that the gt70 supports a 3x ssd super raid 0 and I was wondering if all of them support it or just a few. Could anyone tell me if this version of the gt70 supports it?
Thank you

Well, this is a very loaded question......
Technically, ALL the GT70 laptops support it.....but they don't all come with the proper adapter in order to actually install the drives.
Only models that actually list an SSD should come with the Super Raid 2 adapter.
IE purchasing a model with a single 1TB Mechanical hard drive will not have the adapter needed to install the mSATA SSD's.
Purchasing a model with a 128 GB SSD + 1TB mechanical hard drive will (most likely, do NOT quote me as saying it will) come with the adapter needed to add 2 more mSATA SSD's.
The best thing to do is to actually contact MSI directly and find out from them, or your reseller.

MSi GT70 2OD GPU

Hi guys.
I´m new here, but I have one question.
Is it possible to change GPU on MSi GT70 2OD notebook? I whould like to change from GTX780M to GTX980M.

It will most likely work fine. You can get a 980M for $720 and a 970M for $450. Either card will probably work. The 970m works fine in my system (a GT60 2OD 780m). No reason a 980m wouldn't also work fine. You will need to do a small heatsink mod with a dremel or rotary tool. Took me about 5 minutes.
Eventually you will be able to find official MSI 970m heatsinks on eBay or forums from other users. You can then purchase that and have an official MSI heatsink.
There is a thread I created over at notebook review forums under MSI section showing the mod required and how I did it. Goodluck with your upgrading.

Msi gt70 2pc running games very badly.

So, i just bought my msi gt70 yesterday and installed windows 8.1, drivers, etc. Now i installed borderlands 2 so i could play this game. It should run perfect because i heard you could even play battlefield 4 on this laptop? The problem is. On normal settings i get 15 fps MAX. The game ran perfectly on my older computer wich had a radeon hd 6800 series graphics card. I already tried adjusting it trough the nvidia control panel. I'm starting to think this was just a waste of money. Hope anyone can help, else ill have to return it to see if anything might be wrong. Thanks ahead.
Specs:
i7 4800mq
geforce gtx870m/3gb gddr5

http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/72567/can-i-force-steam-to-use-my-nvidia-gpu-instead-of-the-integrated-intel-card
Most likely the game is using the Intel iGPU instead of the NVidia dedicated GPU, and this is why the games are running so badly. Follow the instructions linked above to setup the NVidia Optimus driver to use the NVidia card during Borderlands 2 (and any other games) so they work properly.

Msi gt70 2pc dominator wlan

Hey guys its me again, i have a question which i cant seem to find on the net.
In the msi gt70 2pc dom driver page there seems to be two wlan driver; killer gaming wlan driver and intel wireless driver (beta).
What are the differences between the two? I cant seem to find the intel wireless driver on my device manager despite installing the beta intel wireless driver. As im still having issues with the killer driver, i was wondering if i could use the intel driver. Thx

The GT702PC has a Killer Wireless N1202 network adapter. There is no Intel adapter in the laptop (source: device manager).
Edit - This is a Qualcomm Atheros device, so if you absolutely must start messing around with drivers, first step is the driver disc that came with the laptop, then MSI's site, then Qualcomms site.
Extra edit - According to Qualcomm's site, the most up to date driver for this device is V10.0.0.274, which is the driver I currently have installed on my laptop/for this device. If you also have this driver installed, it's as up to date as it gets. You could try DL'ing it from Qualcomm's site & reinstalling it once you've ruled out other causes for any problem you're seeing
