Hello guys.
I made some Youtube videos using my MSI GT70 Dominator GTX 870M.
The videos are for view games i have installed and i am just demonstrating the settings and the Frame Per Second.
I use it's integrated nVidia Shadow Play which is awesome btw.
Check it out please.
I play the new Watch_Dogs, Metal Gear Rising, Battlefield4, Assassin's Creed Freedom Cry and i am uploading Batman Arkham Origins soon.
I dont have many games. but if you want me to test a game. i'm willing to do so. if it's actually worth trying.
My channel is http://www.youtube.com/user/the9prince/videos
or Youtube search Prince Alfa .. first channel hit.
Thank you.
PS: I'm not trying to get hits on the videos or anything.

Compatible videos in iPhoto should show up under the item "iPhoto Videos" near the top of the list in the Events Library. Click on this item to reveal all the clip thumbnails in the Events viewer. Drag clips in the normal way to a project. Note that videos in iPhoto are not accessible in the same manner as photos, which you drag from the Photo panel in iMovie.
As your Canon G11 shoots in H.264 format (in a .mov container), the clips should import directly to iMovie without the need to import first to iPhoto. I'm assuming you are using iMovie '11 (or possibly iMovie '09).

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?

What is the book key (F) in MSI GT70 to boot from CD/DVD?

Hello,
What is the book key (F) in MSI GT70 to boot from CD/DVD? I tried all F keys but nothing.

Change to legacy mode and reboot again to see if your CD/DVD is in the list of boot menu. Any drive not in the list is usually not bootable under current boot mode. You just need to choose the correct boot mode and make sure your CD/DVD is not broken or scratched. :cool:

MSI GT70 Switch from RAID (2xHDD) to 1x SSD & 1x HDD

Hi
I’ve a MSI GT70 (sry. I don’t know the exact model, but it’s the one whit the nvidia GTX 670M, Intel i7-3610 and 2x500 Gb HDD …currently it’s running Windows 7 and BIOS version is E1762IMS.30P).
Now I want to switch from RAID0 to 1x SSD (for the OS and co) and 1x HDD and upgrade to Windows 8.1.
What I’ve done so fare:
-   I’ve removed the old HDDs (Just to have a working system as backup…until the new configuration works)
-   Installed the new SSD (Samsung 840 Evo Basic (750GB, 2.5") https://www.digitec.ch/ProdukteDetails2.aspx?Reiter=Details&Artikel=280458)
-   Installed a normal HDD 500 Gb HDD
-   Changed SATA mode in BISO from RAID to AHCI
-   Installed Windows 8.1 on SSD
My Problems:
-   If I try to boot my notebook, I get a disk read error
-   I tried to change the boot order so that my SDD is on the first place … But I don’t see the SSD in the BIOS
-   If I remove the HDD and reboot with F11 pressed (Bootmenu) I can select my SSD and start Windows “without any problems”
Do you have any idea what I’m doing wrong?

Did you install Windows 8.1 in UEFI or legacy mode?
Your boot order should probably have "Windows Boot Manager" for the SSD if you have installed in UEFI mode.

MSI GT70 0NC - upgrade from i5-3230M to i7-3610QM?

Hi Guys,
Can You upgrade MSI GT70 0NC from i5-3230M to i7-3610QM? Has anyone of You tried that? How does laptop perform after such change? Is it stable?
i5 is unfortunately not performing well, when I try to play with virtualisation, so I'm looking if I can simply get more powerfull i7 onboard. Then I'll add 16 GB of Kingston RAM + SSD drive, and it should perform well... I hope.

MSI GT70 2PC Dominator Battleship – EpisodeⅠ

[Introduction]
[Roberts are the dream of every man] one of my close fellows said. Actually, I am not a 3C fans. But it is really excited that Titan Fall is online now. So I made a tough decision that I never did it before. I purchased the [MSI GT70 2PC Dominator] with last year bounds.
[Open box article]
Finally, the shipment is coming today. It is true that now is one of my happiest moment in life. I put down all my work and start to share my new toy for everyone.
Note:
It is sad that I only have a phone next to me. Please forgive me those non-quality and non-professional pictures in article.
That is cool that we can find a big case with MSI log and an extra backpack in package.
There is MSI log on the top of box. Furthermore, I must said the Dragon log is so fashion and beautiful. That is a nice backpack which we can carry it outside anytime.
There is an extra soft layer behind the backpack. It improves the comfortable and air permeability for user.
In my own opinion, I like this kind of design.
Let’s check what surprise us in box.
We could see the label of GT70 2PC spec on the side of box.
MSI really provide the multi-protection for their products. There are two more cases inside.
We can find MSI gaming mouse/ SteelSeries SIBERIA V2 gaming headphone in box. Besides, there is a small and special box which has MSI Log. We will check it later.
All right. I think we can throw away the empty box now.
Wait a minute!!! The box is still so heavy. It must be something else that we didn’t take out.
Oh well, I see. There is a warranty service book and driver CD in the right side.
Also, battery and adapter are behind the cover.
Let’s take a family picture.
We have quick guide/MSI rromotional materials/manual for F3 recovery/driver CD for Win8.1/Warranty service book/ Windows 8.1 guide
Oh my god. There is a signet in that special box. Dragoon postmark is so elegant.
SteelSeries SIBERIA V2 Full-Size headset.
Furthermore, it supports 4 different languages. You can find the spec on its box.
Wow. MSI log is on the headphone. Totally, It is customized for MSI brand!!!
Another dragon army log on headphone.
MSI didn’t forget the inside of headphone. A beautiful shield is on it.
SteelSeries also promote this headphone on its website. It is so popular.
http://steelseries.com/products/audio/steelseries-siberia-v2
Now, let’s show SteelSeries KINZU V2 mouse.
Mouse supports 4 different languages, too. We also can find the spec on box.
However, there is no driver CD in box…LOL. How do I use it? We only can find the cute mouse and manual.
Sorry, my bad. We can download the driver and firmware from SteelSeries official website.
http://steelseries.com/products/mice/steelseries-kinzu-v2
Of course, there is a powerful dragon on mouse pad.
Take a mouse family picture.
180W adapter is just like a big strong brick. It is designed by most famous industry DELTA. You can find all kinds of safety signatures on it. It is powerful and undefeatable on playing game. But please understand that I didn’t suggest dear readers to use it as a weapon to throw/hurt people!!!
The battery is 7800mAh. And you can see all kinds of safety signatures on it.
Finally, our rock star is coming.
The laptop is surrounding by a lot of soft foams.
Huge dragon shield log on it.
Take off the black jacket. Then, we can see a nonwoven fabric inside the plastic bag.
Game start!!
This universe battle cruiser will help me dominate all my enemies in game .
We can find the security lack/power jack/ RJ45 port/D-SUB/m-DP/HDMI in back. The sales man said it can also support three external displays at same time. I must try the solution by myself when I get my new screens.
On the left side, there are USB3.0 port/Card Reader/HiFi headphone port (According to the spec, it will increase 30% audio performance). I can’t wait to listen my favorite music with it.
I didn’t forget my lovely BD. It also has BD reader/writer and 2 USB2.0 on the right side.
I can’t stop myself to take another wonderful photo with the MSI logo and upper case.
I have a feeling that my dominator is ready fight.
There is a [SteelSeries] LOGO on the left side. What a surprise it is. YA! We have SteelSeries keyboard on GT70. Absolutely, this is a gamer dream. Best Keyboard vendor SteelSeries and Top Gaming NB brand MSI are working together! It is totally worth for me.
DYNAUDIO, the leader of audio industry. As you know, BUGATTI’s sport cars use the DYNAUDIO. And MSI is the first notebook in world with this sound of Danish pride.
HA!HA!
I’m listening the best sound as rich people sitting in their sport cars. It feels great.
http://www.dynaudio.com/int/multimedia_sound/index.php
There are many thoughtful buttons on middle cover. (Power/Airplane mode/display on&off/Gaming button/Caps Luck/Num lock).
More convenience buttons, media/turbo fan/backlight LED.
We also have Bluetooth/WLAN/battery/sleep/disk indicators in front of laptop.
Here is GT70 spec and signatures form Sound Blaster CINEMA / nVIDIA /Intel.
An independent On/Off switch for touch pad.
Built-in Camera and Mic on the display.
You can see the thermal design and the battery when we check the back side.
The silver part is our bass. Just like the cannon on our battleship.
What is under the battery?
The left side is the safety signatures for GT70 and its WLAN.
The right side is Win8 LOGO and serial number.
Now we know my baby is born on February.
[Power on]
Gee!the Log is shining when the system is. power on .
The keyboard is just like the most beautiful rainbow that I’ve never seen. It is stunning. Honestly, my cheerful tear is dropping.
Anyway, Titanfall, I’m coming.
What? Something pops up when I attach the network.
What is [Killer Network Manager]?
Wow. Now I know that Killer high-performance networking products combine intelligence, control and superior networking speed for HD video, high quality audio, and online games. That’s great. I hate the evil [LAG] in game.
https://www.qca.qualcomm.com/products/killer-technology/
After the quick test, it is time to install my game.
I find a secret app in the tray of task bar during the game installation.
YA! That is SSE (Steelseries Engine). I can set my own hotkey, backlight LED and combo key with this good friend.
SSE is a smart app. It recognized my GT70 and my mouse immediately when I launch the app.
Sorry again. I was wrong because I don’t need a mouse driver. The SSE can control all of the actions. It is so sweet.
It is the time to say goodbye. Titanfall is calling. See you on battlefield!!!

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.

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 - which ones are required drivers and apps? Which ones are optional?

I have MSI GT70 0ND but I suppose lots of things will overlap with other GT70 even GT60 owners (Windows 8 x64). So which onces are needed and what are they? I will post some that I know, then ask you about the rest:
http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT70-0ND.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win8%2064
DRIVERS
Realtek HD Audio - is this the orange sound icon for additional effects? If Yes, then I will use it
Intel(R) Chipset - main driver, download
Intel N2230 Bluetooth 4.0 - is this the bluetooth driver?
Realtek Card Reader - is this for adding memory cards in the slot, thus the driver for it?
NVIDIA Geforce GT670M/670MX/675M Graphic Card - best is from Nvidia site, latest
(Beta) NVIDIA Geforce/Quadro Graphic Card - this is for some other video cards, I dont need that right?
Intel HD Graphics Family_Intel Ivy Bridge - now what is this? Does any1 know, so that I decide if I will use it?
Synaptics Touchpad - that's my touchpad
Intel N2230 Wireless LAN
Qualcomm WLAN Killer N1202+ Bluetooth - Is this like the above case with video graphics, just need to choose 1 of them for Bigfoot killer, or both? Which one should I choose?
Intel Rapid Storage Technology - no idea what this is for and if I need to install it... so what is it?
Intel Management Engine - what is this?
Camera - it's clear duh
Intel USB 3.0 driver - for my USB 3.0 ports?
Radio Switch - what is this?
Intel RAID - and this? do I need it? I don't do enhancenements with software.. so
UTILITY
Cyberlink PowerDVD 10 Blu-ray patch - so I need this to play BluRay?
SCM
SCM (Only for Windows 8 upgraded from Windows 7.) - I know this is screen contrl manager but do I really need it? Can't I do - disable.enable wifi, bluetooth etc from Win8 without it? I think I won't use it
NVidia VGA OC - this I would need only if I am to overclock my videocard, right? (which I won't do). So is my 675MX using the 4GB since total memory when you see specs shows 1664MB and I think it is dedicated?
Keyboard LED Manager - that's for the lights of the keyboard, ofc I would use that
THX AP
THX EQ - I see it is for the sound but is it something needed, what does it do?
If you could answer about those so that I know which ones I will exclude, would be great

SCM
SCM (Only for Windows 8 upgraded from Windows 7.) - I know this is screen contrl manager but do I really need it? Can't I do - disable.enable wifi, bluetooth etc from Win8 without it? I think I won't use it
Well, you don't know what SCM is. It's the System Control Manager. It is the most important tool at all. It is required for the system to work properly no hotkey will work without. Even e.g. enabling/disabling WLAN wouldn't work.
Quote
Radio Switch - what is this?
Bluetooth won't work in Windows 8 without the Radio Switch. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh450832(v=vs.85).aspx
Quote
Intel N2230 Bluetooth 4.0 - is this the bluetooth driver?
Yes.
Quote
Intel USB 3.0 driver - for my USB 3.0 ports?
Yes.

Yes, use the Nvidia latest if possible.
Quote
Intel N2230 Wireless LAN
Qualcomm WLAN Killer N1202+ Bluetooth - Is this like the above case with video graphics, just need to choose 1 of them for Bigfoot killer, or both? Which one should I choose?
The Intel lan driver is for the Intel lan, Qualcomm WLAN Killer N1202+ Bluetooth is for the additional Killer NIC.
Quote
Intel Rapid Storage Technology - no idea what this is for and if I need to install it... so what is it?
Yes you need it, http://www.intel.de/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/rapid-storage-technology.html
Quote
Intel Management Engine - what is this?
ME controls Intel hardware, such as chip sets, storage, and other components. There will be an unknown device if you won't install ME.
Quote
Intel RAID - and this? do I need it? I don't do enhancenements with software.. so
You need it if your notebook came with the optional Super Raid and before installing Win8.
Quote
Intel HD Graphics Family_Intel Ivy Bridge - now what is this? Does any1 know, so that I decide if I will use it?
It's the driver for the cpu's integrated gpu which is used for non-3D applications instead of the GeForce.
Quote
NVidia VGA OC - this I would need only if I am to overclock my videocard, right?
This is used to utilize the gpu's boost via the turbo button if using SCM as well. It doesn't allow any manual overclocking.
Quote
Cyberlink PowerDVD 10 Blu-ray patch - so I need this to play BluRay?
Yes.
Quote
THX AP
THX EQ - I see it is for the sound but is it something needed, what does it do?
It adds the advanced THX True Studio Pro to enhance sound.

MSI Gt70 Windows 8 Factory Reset problem

Hi, first time posting here
Ive owned an MSI gt70 laptop for around 6 months
Attempting to factory reset my laptop since its got clogged up with lots of crap and i feel that it has slightly dipped in performance
Attempted to do this via General > Remove and Reinstall windows, with no joy telling me i need a bootup disk/usb
So i have purchased one of ebay that seems to have done the trick on alot of other machines, however i am unable to boot from it
I have attempted to boot from it via Advanced start up, however this menu doesnt seem to have as many options as other videos ive seen e.g doesnt have the troubleshooting option or UEFI firmware options
Im really struggling any help deeply appreciated
Regards
John

What laptop do you have? GT70 0NE? 20C? What? GT70 helps, but it's not enough.
Did you bother making the recovery DVD's/ISO's using MSI Burn Recovery? This should have popped up the first time you booted your computer.

MSi GT70 - 0NE-276us Sudden Power Off/Will not Stay On

First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to read about my problem. No sob story, however this is my only computer and it was/is my work machine in the IT Administrative/Deskside Workplace. Any ideas are welcome.
I have an MSi GT70-0NE 276us Laptop. I bought it last year (Christmas). I was playing a game on Steam when suddenly the machine turned off. Using my troubleshooting experience, here is what I tried:
-Removing the battery and power supply from the machine and holding power button for 1 minute
-After testing with ONLY the battery inside the machine, pressing the power button makes a white flash and a shimmer of light sent to the keyboard, but doesnt actually turn on. It does this upon each keypress and does not skip a beat.
- I tried to connect the power supply directly into the laptop WITHOUT the battery connected, and it does the same thing. As for the battery indicator light, it does not stay on as it normally would when the power is connected to it.
NOTE: I have NEVER used my laptop WITHOUT the power cord connected; it is always attached since I know its a power hog.
- I have checked for any smells of burning/melting and there are none. The laptop was also not that hot when it cut off suddenly.
- Ive blown the mainboard/underside with compressed air and removed all of the dust
- Ive made sure the fan was clear and connected
- Ive reseated the RAM
- I have NOT tried another power brick; the one I received was refurbished.
- The LED on the power brick lights up but nothing is coming into the machine
- I have not had the laptop 10 months and its always connected to the wall/power outlet
So if it is the motherboard, I wouldnt be too surprised but Ive know MSi to make excellent motherboards, hence the reason I spent 2500.00 on it. A fellow IT friend said I may want to try a new power supply that has the exact specs your laptop needs. As if its possible the load on the end of the power brick that goes into my laptop may be done for.
I removed the Battery and noticed this:
The inside of the laptop after removing the battery say
MS 1762
DC Rating 19V=9.5A
My Battery says (MSi battery)
11.1 Vdc = 7800mAh, 87 Wh
..But the power brick reads
Input 100-240 V ~2A 50-60Hz
Output 19.5 Volts =7.7 A
He suggested trying a new power suppy but Im concerned its the motherboard (because us IT Guys know the motherboard will get you everytime)
So is it possible? Im not sure why they may have given me the wrong power brick, if it is wrong. He says the specs dont add up, and since each time I press the button and the white light flickers and part of the keyboard, he said it may be the power bricks' node that connects to my machine. Im used to motherboards that are done for the machine shows no sighns, no hints, no flickers. This is atleast flickering, just not coming on .
I know its alot to read and I appreciate all of the techs/other users time.

Thanks guys. Your input is not falling on deaf ears and it seems im getting reputable support via the forums with the MSi tech team.
It really is so weird. Today I tried the process of elimination from a video I saw on you tube. Now, keep in mind, each time the power button is pressed with either their power brick/battery alone in the machine, the power light and the 'battery' indicator light at the front of the machine flicker (each keypress; even if you do it rapidly).
I took the bottom tray off and checked the fan and blew it out with compressed air. Checked the thermal paste under the processor heatsink, checked the processor condition and all looks well there.
Tested by removing one connection at a time then testing for power (all along while testing, keep in mind I only have the 19.5v 7.7 amp power brick.)
- removed D:/ drive secondary then checked for continuity; no luck
- removed all 4 ram sticks and tested one at a time with the power supply connected; no continuity
- removed the keyboard ribbon cable and tested; still no luck
- removed (what I believe to be) the usb ribbon cable (hub with 3.0 ports) and tested for any indicator lights; still no luck
- unplugged the cmos for 5 mins and reconnected; still no luck
*NOTE: when I look underneath of the laptop when pressing the power button, the fan that has the gpu and the cpu heatsinks up against, it actually spins for a brief second; about as long as the power button flashes.
I stopped at some stores looking for a 180+ watt adapter and i couldnt find one that carried it. I wanted to test it before purchasing, so Ive avoided online purchase up to this point. However, I do realize I need one anyway at this point regardless.
My buddy has his own PC Repair shop. He doesnt have a power brick of that magnitude, but cant we get a voltmeter and check for continuity from not only the power supply, but also the jack soldered on the motherboard?
He is saying kinda what Dark is saying... Me, I think its a short somewhere... he thinks the computer asked for too much power from the power supply and probably burnt out the tip because at the time it cut off, I was playing a graphic intensive game, and in my USB 3.0 ports on a single hub, I had the following connected:
- A Logitech USB headset (wired)
- an XBOX 360 wired controller
- A Logitech G700 gaming mouse charging
Ive never had that many power hungry devices connected to one hub at one time before.

Nvidia in Laptop MSI GT70 card didn't work

Hi I have Laptop MSI GT70
Contains a card /nvidia GeForce GTX 680M /4GB
The problem is that the card whenever preoccupied Crisis 3 game or the big picture in the developed Steam computer screen becomes black and freezes computer I want you to solve the problem you quickly
Knowing I got the last update for the card.

Hello. I'm having the same problem since days and what I've found don't reassure me. (GE70-OND, with Geforce 680M)
So far it looks like it's impossible to use the NVIDIA card, only the intel HD 4000. I've re-installed the NVIDIA drivers multiple times, completely or not, using the lastest drivers or those from the disk and it still doesn't work. Right now I've made wiped all files and make a clean installation but still the Geforce doesn't seem to work.
In particular if I open the NVIDIA pannel and go to the first option, where NVIDIA show a video to see the 3D, it crashes telling me the nvidia drivers has stopped worked and the screen blink black a second, and it does that repeatedly without the video ever working.
I've had crashes for multiple games, such as Darksider. Deus Ex: Human Revolution also allowed to pick which graphic card to use on the setup, there I saw that with Intel HD 4000 I could launch the game. But if I picked Geforce 680M the program suddenly stopped working, just by selecting the card, not even by launching the game.
I'm running out of idea so if anyone has any please help.

Turbo mode MSI GT70

I recently upgraded to a 256GB SSD as my main drive on my MSI GT70, I installed windows 7 64bit and reinstalled all the drivers and programs from the MSI notebook disc and the ones i could find on the website.
Now my Turbo button does nothing, when i touch it the light comes on but it doesn't go into to overclock mode and the light shuts off after about 2-3 seconds...
Are there more drivers i need for this feature? If so where can i get them?...
Thank you.

It's crap compared to any decent overclock tool - for instance MSI afterburner. Actually I never saw an overclock tool that underclocks the default GPU clock if the turbo button isn't pressed.
This is no different than EVGA or PNY offering the same video cards but with slightly different clocks, and $50 difference in price.
Say what you want, it's nice since it's included, and you don't pay extra for it. It's not MEANT to replace MSI Afterburner (which btw, is not for mobile video cards.....but many do use it that way). Not every user is going to want to push their core clock up to 850 MHz using MSI Afterburner, or even higher. Most users could care less. Some users want more (I run mine actually at around 1 GHz), and you can still get there with this if you know what you're doing.
Now, if you don't have anything further to help solve this users problem, please refrain from posting.
As far as this user's problem, have you installed the VGA Overclock application as well? If that isn't installed, then the turbo button will not function properly.

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

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.
