Not getting enough performance out of Msi GT60 0NC

Hello there guys! Since I've got my laptop I have been getting the feeling that I am not getting enough power out of my toy. I dont know if its me who have too big expectations about this laptop or it really should be performing better?:( I have done hours of research regarding drivers, graphic setup and not at least overclocking which seems to raise the performance quite a bit but it easily gets unstable. I am using Msi's preinstalled drivers as it seems like they give the best performance so far. I have also installed the modded Firmware from https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=162629.0 which works better than the original one from Msi. But still, i hear a lot of people playing demanding games on ultra with fps around 50-60. In bf3 I get around 40-60 on High with shadow on medium and post processing off, anti-aliasing off. Turbo is on + overclock. The performance in Gw2 is even worse.
So here is my question: am I expecting too much from the laptop or can I do something to improve it and make it run like a charm? Another question would be if it is possible to change powervoltage to get a higher overclock?
I would very much like to hear from u guys how your msi gt60 is performing:)
Best regards, Mathias Kanstrup

Same here, Gt70 0NE + 680M; overclocking GPU core causes clockdowns so gains are minimal. Overclocking memory is successful upto about 2500MHz but gains are small as the memory isn't the restricting factor in preformance - or the effect is just minuscule. So mostly 2 to 8 % in benchmarks, max.
With extreme air cooling and a modified VBios, it's possible to get up to around 15%......I know this first hand.
I just don't care to do it since there's little point in pushing the hardware that hard regularly. Yes, it's great for bragging rights, but it's not useful for long term use unfortunately.
Overclocking the memory in the GTX675M might help a bit more than in the 680M. I'm not sure, I haven't really followed up on the other cards.

Not getting optimal performance out of premiere Pro CC with New Mac Pro

I have just purchased a new mac pro- 8core 64gb of RAM, and D700 graphics cards. I say I'm not getting full optimized performance because my machine will not playback 4k footage at full resolution. Should it? I looked into the package contents of Premiere Pro and notive that the D700 graphics cards were not listed under supported cards. If I type those in will that fix the issue?

No it wont. No editing software out right now will play back 4K media such as Red at full resolution. The latency for processing the codecs is just to high right now. Redcine X Pro can with Red if you have the GPU accelerated Debayering version. Until that decoding is done on the GPU's in the editing applications, you wont see the full res playback most likely. I wouldn't expect the Red Debayering done at the GPU's in Adobe for a while since Red is still refining it.

CONSIDER UPGRADING HARD DISK OF MSI GT60-0NC

I had bought my new MSI GT60-0NC recently in Malaysia. My com is equipped with 750GB 7200rpm hdd, probably sata maybe.
So far I am satisfied and indeed quite impressed with its performance. Who knows maybe after few years my specs will soon outdated and cant cope with my requirements for performance?
I would like to seek for some guidance for upgrading hdd to other type of hard disk drives like ssd or raid-II.
Is any kind of SSD hard drive can be installed on the laptop? Any brand recommendations for ssd or hybrid hard disk drives?
Thanks a lot.

It's really hit or miss with most SSD's for some reason.
I've seen a few people who got Samsung 840 non-PRO/PRO drives have problems, and some who had no problems.
Personally, I've got the super raid adapter and have 2 x Mushkin Atlas Deluxe mSATA 240GB drives in my laptop, and it work great.
I've had a few people with Intel 520 based drives have problems as well.
Personally, I would find what you want and try it out. If it doesn't work, you may have to return it though. Everything SHOULD work, but it's not always the case unfortunately.

MSI GT60-0NC SCM Bluetooth Problem!

I own a MSI GT60-0NC Notebook. I have made a clean install of Windows 8 Pro. After that I installed SCM. But I have a problem. When I run SCM, bluetooth enters an endless loop which turns on and of with 1 second of delay without touching. What can cause this? Should I update BIOS? It will be my last choice though. Thanks in advance

I had the SAME Problem with a GT70 bought on the 13.9.13!
I update BIOS & EC!
Now there is no loop, but i cant activate or deactivate BT. Win8 sasy its on, but no LED!
Think this is a big BUG from MSI.
At the old BIOS version you can uninstall SCM and reinstall KLM, than it works but no ECO/Fly Shortcut.
With the new BIOS & EC the shortcuts work fine after clean install without SCM but no ECO & Fly shortcut. With SCM there is the BT issue and after deinstalling SCM no shortcuts work any more.
MSI PLZ fix it!
Place: Austria
Edit:
I tried it with the KLM & SCM NEW Version from the GT70 Dragon Extrem 2 Edition.......
Same BT Issiu -.-

HT1414 I'm not get no sound out of my 4s

I'm not getting no type of sound from my 4s only when it rings that's all no typing no music no picture sound no motification sounds no voice mail sound no power off sound

Never mind - I got it. It has to do with the Rotation Lock and Mute switches in Settings/General.
How did I figure it out? Google.

-[ Have you tried various recording sources? When I record a couple different FM radio stations, the signal peaks are near 00%, with rare clipping. Another particular station's peaks are near -6 dB (50%). If I record from a profession mixer, the output signal peaks can range from clipping (00%) to whatever level I set it.

MSI GT60 0NC Erratic Touchpad

I just purchased a GT60 laptop and there was an immediate issue with the touchpad. The cursor moves very erratically, often jumping from one place to another. Control is very limited. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the touchpad drivers including the latest synaptic drivers to no avail. I've run the laptop under safe mode and the problem persists. I've also done a full system restore and there has been no solution. I would greatly appreciate some advice as I am getting very discouraged with my new purchase, I'm starting to believe it is a hardware issue.

Quote from: Tiger on 16-August-13, 06:29:08
purchased my first MSI GT60 for business vs gaming due to many of the great features in June 2012 ... exchanged computers a few months later - not functioning properly.
Right now, I am very frustrated with MSI, after doing a lot of research into purchasing this "deluxe" laptop, I am regretting this selection and fed up for the wasted time - which I would like to charge back to MSI for lost productivity.
Not long into the 2nd MSI GT60 started to experience:
a) cursor bouncing around - I don't have time to play "let's find the cursor" and once you find it, play "let's find what words/sentences it changed when it hopped elsewhere on the page".
b) slowness!!! ??? how on earth with 12 G RAM, a brand spanking new i7 processor and 1 T hd - which had NO DATA transferred and stored on it (using external back up and 30 G usb) was it slow????
c) " S bar stopped loading and working
d) intel turbo booster stopped working
e) my on screen keyboard stopped working
f) mouse touch pad nor an external mouse was intermittently working ... when it felt like it, it would come around
g) moving from WORD to EXCEL, the pages would temporarily freeze
h) oddly I couldn't edit documents in WORD that I copied into, so I could highlight and color code.
i) I tried to back up my Outlook emails - system could not find the .pst folder!
I took it in for a 1 year service check - what should have been guaranteed 5 business days turned into 9 days - not impressed.
They had to re-install Windows 7 and "apparently kept it to see if it would act up, of course a phone call would have been nice, except it didn't happen, not impressed.
NOW the cursor has some kind of dial that suddenly pops up AND TOTALLY FREEZES on the page ... no cando anything until "it" decides when the game has caused "enough" frustration. This too is intermittent. All is fine and you're working away and suddenly full tilt stop!
and it just did the NEXT thing that is driving me over the deep end ... the cursor suddenly CHANGES FONT SIZES .... ALWAYS SMALLER to TINIEST and this is where it stops - barely legible on the page and I can't find where the friggin' size thing is to change it or TURN IT OFF!
I have called the Tech twice now for the same problem and I have only had it back barely 3 weeks and I didn't even call him immediately when it started to happen!!
Today I was over the top when he told me to disable the mouse pad and see if that works ... it's a lap top .... if the mouse pad doesn't function, there's a problem.
To have these problems in the first year - it is DEFECTIVE!! and once again the voodoo Font Monster has taken over and I can barely see this script!
Frustration and fed up!
My blood pressure is boiling beyond e
Sorry you had such a bad experience, but I highly doubt all this was caused by hardware.
Did you bother doing anything to try and troubleshoot the problem? Was the CPU overheating? Did you look at the temperatures?
A number of the problems you seem to indicate, really point more towards there being a very bad virus or trojan installed on it. That laptop shouldn't slow down that much, and even my GT70 (which has been flawless) works great and its nearly the exact same laptop.
I really think the problem is not as you suggest.
Lastly, the simple fact that a single user is having a problem like this, and it's not widespread, really is indicative of it being something due to the user and not due to the design/manufacture of the laptop, unless it's a heat problem with the CPU.

MSI GT60-0NC-004US BIOS UNLOCK Request

Dear Svet,
I’m Brazilian and I own a MSI GT60, I bought it at EUA in August 2012.
I’ve searched a lot about GPU upgrades and I’d like to try.
However I’d like to talk with one of the best in BIOS mod, and this guy are you.
I’d like to update my currently GTX 670M to a 970M.
It’s not sure, First I need to buy this card here in Brazil, since there’s a probability that the card fail.
But in parallel I’m talking with you about the BIOS update that I’ll need anyway.
Current BIOS: E16F3IMS.10U
Current EC: 16F3EMS1.414
My GT60 came with Windows 7 pre-installed
Is this BIOS the latest available for it?
Is there any safe way to update the BIOS to the Windows 8 Version?
Because I’ve heard about the BIOS version E16F3IMS.51X and its compatibility seems to be better.
Do I need to update the firmware? Which version?
Is there any way to personalize the temperature x fan speed curve?
I’d like to set FAN speed to max above 75°C.
How much will this cost me?
Feel free to contact me via PM.
I’ll be waiting for you answer.
Thank you very much.
DMTwo

yes for Win7 based bios, but if you want to add 970M card , 5.xx, 7.xx will be required

MSI GT60-0NC Paging File Size Help!

I'm having issues with my laptop (http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT60-0NC.html#/?div=Overview) after messing with the paging file settings. I'm wondering what the default values are for this particular laptop.
I'm not sure what it was before I started messing with it, but after I changed it my benchmark for 3d renderings (architectural visualizations done through maxwell render) have dropped more than significantly.
While rendering, my physical memory usage is about 95%, my CPU usage is only 4% (which should be between 70-90%), and my Disk usage is 100%. Disk usage must be my problem, because when I check the resource monitor my the system is writing about 10,000,000 B/sec to the pagefile, while maxwell is reading about 13,000,000 B/sec from the pagefile. This read / write of the pagefile keeps my disk usage at 100% throughout the render.
If I allow windows to "automatically manage the paging file size for all drives," it allocates 12288 to drive C: (OS) and none to the other drive in the RAID. Displayed at the bottom is "Minimum allowed: 16 MB; Recommended: 5107 MB; Currently allocated: 12288 MB"
What started the problem is when I went to manually manage the pagefile myself, and moved the paging file to the other RAID drive (D:), and ever since I haven't been able to render properly. I'm trying to isolate my problem, and this is the only significant change I made to this system since it was able to render correctly, other than removing it's ability to hibernate.
Anyone have any advice? My first step was to allow windows to automatically control the pagefile again, and its back on the C drive, but the problem still persists. I also did a system restore to a date before I made these changes, and that didn't help either.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for the response.
Both drives in my raid are HDD, and are set to defragment weekly. Defragmenter says it was last run today, and they are both 0% fragmented.
Update:
My issue ended up being a corrupt scene file (for the rendering program), which once I rewrote the scene the problem has disappeared. Disk usage is back to very low, and CPU usage is back to 100% where it should be during a rendering. Slowdown was associated with the corrupt file causing me to hit the limit of my physical memory, which caused the major slowdown in reading/writing massive amounts of overflow to the pagefile.
That's great. Atleast you know what the problem was and know how to solve it next time!

Not getting any signal out from the NI9472 cRIO

I want to generate PWM signal from the NI9472 in cRIO.
I made a vi which (I think) should generate the pulse in the DO0 port.
but when I measure DO0 with oscilloscope, I get nothing out from it. (The LED comes up in NI9472 that channel 0 is active)
Is there anything I am doing wrong here? (I attached the project and block diagram in jpg)
Thank you so much.

Hi hinewwiner,
Overall, your implementation looks good. I think it might be worth your while
to look at two other examples of PWM I found on our website which may be more
efficient and more accurate. Another important thing to not about the 9472 is
that it must have an external power supply connected to it for any output to occur.
If you do not have any supply, the channel may be switching (and thus the
channel LED will show activity,) but you will not see any change in output
voltage. Also note that the LED should be off when the channel is not switched,
and on when it is switched. So if you run your PWM at a slow enough speed, you
will see the light turn on when the pulse is high and off when the pulse is low
(at the rates shown in your attached project, your eye will probably not be
able to discern a change.) It may also be helpful for you to describe exactly
what the LED is doing to get a better idea of whether the code has stopped in a
channel closed position, or if it is simply changing very fast.
Another slight possibility is that the unit has experienced an over current
condition. Because the module has automatic over current protection, if it is
exposed to a current greater then 13A, the unit will open the channel switch
and wait for a reset. This may have occurred, and the activity light will still
show normal operation. To ensure that this condition is removed, simply reset
the channel, or disconnect and reconnect the external power supply.
For testing purposes, it may also make sense to simplify your VI by removing
the case structure, start button, stop button and outside while loop. You can
then simply start the VI in your real time controller, and stop the VI using
the abort command given in your real time code.

How to get better performance out of iMovie?

I have a 13" MBP (2010) with 2.4GHz. I bought the machine to edit video on the road and it did great when I first bought it running Snow Leopard. After upgrading to Lion, I noticed it started to play back some choppy video clips while inside iMovie. The rendered clips play fine, so I wasn't too concerned. A bit of a hassle. Then I figured I would upgrade some RAM and am now running 8GB. I don't think the graphics card is limiting, because it used to run the clips fine. The video just doesn't run smooth and I am wondering how to fix. I played some clips while in iMovie and the app starts consuming 150% of the CPU resources from 2% when no video is playing. Is this what others get?
Thanks in advance!

I found a good article on this topic here: http://helgeklein.com/blog/2014/06/customizing-installing-lenovo-w540/
Published on June 17, 2014.
"With Windows 8 the product key is not printed on a sticker on the device’s underside but stored in the BIOS instead. According to the rare information to be found on this topic a plain vanilla version of Windows may or may not accept that key. In some cases additional certificates have been added to the vendor images without which the BIOS key cannot be used. Long story short: I had to try it out and had to be prepared to supply my own product key."
He doesn't comment on if he was actually successful retreiving the Key from BIOS. Does the last sentence imply that he actually had to get another product key?
BTW: just worked with the TrackPad and yes it's very noisy and clunky to click. Luckily I always use a mouse with my laptop.

Satellite Pro M70: Can not get the TV OUT working

I have connected my laptop to my TV via the TV-OUT socket and a 4 pin S-Video lead. I have turned on the TV as an output in the advanced settings of my graphics card. I have selected TV via the Fn-F5 keys and I get nothing on my television.
Can anyone suggest what I might have left out to make this work?
The S-Video lead is new and the hook up to the TV is via a Joytech AV Control Center 2.
The Joytech unit is operational and the video lead appears OK as the Fn-F5 key press indicates that a TV is available - this disappears as an option if I unplug the video lead from the Joytech unit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Lorraine,
I presume that the TV is actually switched to your Joytech AV device ? I presume it gives some kind of signal so that you check that the TV can actually detect it. I once spent a happy few hours trying to use my TV in this way only to find it was switched to the composite inputs not the S-Video one. ;-)
