So has anyone tested this laptop? I saw a few replies a few (hundred) pages back where someone pointed that it's like a HDMI 2.0 port, rather than the 1.4 listed on notebookcheck, but I'm about to buy a 4k TV with HDR and would love to know whether this thing has HDMI 2.0a support (so 4k@60fps with HDR) or not. If anyone could shed light on this I'd be eternally grateful!

Hello all. Not sure whether I should create a new thread with my problem or here is fine. I've a GT62VR with Killer E2400 for network. I've mentioned the network card specifically because I've a problem related to networking. Roughly a month ago network started having lag spikes that last for about 5-10 seconds. By lags I mean that network stops responding and just hangs for a few seconds. It happens both while just web browsing and gaming. Also the problem happens both while connected via an Ethernet cable and Wi-Fi. It isn't an ISP problem because I've tried with two different ones and with both that issue is absolutely the same. I've tried installing different network drivers including from the MSI support page, the Killer website and just through Windows "update driver" from the device manager. Also tried resetting Windows but the problem is still present. Later on I discovered a topic of DPC latency and it appears that NDIS.sys tends to take a lot of execution time at these lag points. Reading the Internet about it didn't help. Mostly it was suggested to update network AND audio drivers because this problem is often due to audio. Though people also reported that at these moments sound was stuttering for them and I have no such problem whatsoever.
Does anyone have any idea why such a problem might be occurring? It drives me insane especially while gaming.
Below you can find a report from LatencyMon with such spikes while I was playing Quake Champions connected directly with the Ethernet cable.

CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. At least one detected problem appears to be network related. In case you are using a WLAN adapter, try disabling it to get better results. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:10:55 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.
Highest measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 331.852114
Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 5.719780

REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.
NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.
Process with highest pagefault count: svchost.exe

sorry I'm new here, I'm not good at knowing the technical subtleties and policies of the MSI. Do not quite clearly understand what you are talking about.....

Alienware users are suffering from this "VID Boosting" thing, making their CPU's current throttle and overheating right now in the 17 R5 thread and Dell completely locked the bioses out so much that you cant do anything about it.
At least with MSI, you can disable this silly stuff by setting IA AC DC loadline to "1" and "1" in CPU VR Settings->Core I/A Domain.
GT73VR also had a PEG display initialization bug where if you switched from Nvidia (dGPU) to Intel iGPU and back to dGPU, under some situations (especially after disabling spread spectrum in "Intel ICC" but sometimes for no reason at all), you may get a black screen, preventing all use of the laptop. Before the CMOS reset method became known (60 second power button depress), this caused several RMA's. This bug could also be permanently fixed with *NO DRAWBACKS AT ALL* by setting PEG Root Port 1, from "Auto" to "Enabled".
Enabling this has no side effects because when you switch to the iGPU, the Embedded Controller electrically disconnects the PEG Port anyway.
(I do not know if this initialization bug was fixed on the GT75VR or not). But still you can unlock your Bios and fix this silly monkey spaghetti code bug yourself.
If MSI removed the unlock combo, you would be FORCED to use AMIBCP 5.02 + FPTW64 + RU (EFI boot program required to disable the "Bios Lock" Bios option to even flash the modded Bios), to manually unlock the menus yourself, which is safe IF you know what you're doing, but runs risk of a Brick. Or have SVET on MSI forums unlock the Bios for you.Papusan likes this. -
I am only interested in overclocking my CPU, but I understand that most likely this is impossible because the processor is locked, even if there are multipliers in Intel xtu, but it does not help

I can only overclock it over the bus. But this I could do on a blocked BIOS. But overclocking the bus is not exactly what suits us, if you understand what I mean
-
Put it the other way... For example, what good is it with an unlocked bios you can screw up multipliers but you can't have access to needed higher power limits? Many ways to Rome. Just look at newer Alienware's... They advertise their Jokes with 50x overclock but with crippled power settings so their advertised overclock is more as Scam.Last edited: Oct 1, 2018Falkentyne likes this. -

Its also buried in Paloesco's MSI tweaks thread, which contains both the combo as well as a brute force way to unlock the Bios manually with AMIBCP 5.02 + FPTW64.exe+ RU (required to use RU To disable Bios Lock bios option, otherwise a modded APTIO will not flash with FPTW64).
I purchased my jokebook before I knew better. Now I know better. Next purchase will be a 9900K which will either go into a desktop upgrade or a Clevo LGA notebook if a decent TDP RTX 2080 becomes available that isn't a max Q Ngreedia abortion.
I would be a lot more sympathetic towards MSI if they actually bothered to release proper cooling in their GT75 Titan throttlebook for SINGLE CARD GPU systems:
like this: like they are doing for the WT75 and the upcoming "F7/Evoc" Coffee Lake LGA barebones system.
Look at those 5 heatpipes keeping the CPU cool and not having the GPU VRM's puking heat on the radiator.
Instead this is what jokebook users got on the GT75 Titan:
No that's not a concept drawing.
That's the GPU VRM heatsink from the GT75VR having the GPU VRM radiator "Cut in half", 1 heatpipe removed, and then the other half the radiator attached to an "extended" CPU heatpipe to a CPU half radiator while they puke heat on each other and the GPU VRMs have less cooling also.
Still 3 heatpipes on i9 8950HK.
MSI could have easily used the WT75 system and given SINGLE card users 5 nice heatpipes and 2 full rads for the CPU.
That would have been a nice jokebook.
But no..... -
What is VDR? this is as it relates to power circuit ? I think this race of cores has just begun. It's worth the wait ( i10 1020K 10/20 ) after 2-3 years, and RTX 3080 on 7-9 nm maybeLast edited: Oct 1, 2018 -
Falkentyne Notebook Prophet
I never typed the word VDR anywhere?
Was that a typo? -
I I understood that this is processor overheating because the voltage is too high from the box. And undervolting help in this situation. but my laptop keeps normal temperatures without undervolting. I have enough of this result

The reason was in the test using FPU. In the test (CPU + FPU + GPU) there is no such problem that the frequency of the processor does not fall below 3.1 GHz.

Can we replace the built in killer network 1435 card on our laptop with Intel Wireless-AC 9260?
Here's a link to Intel 9260 card: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/dual-band-wireless-ac-9260-brief.html -

Another with Killer is they are slacking lately with the drivers, Intel's drivers although they work on the Killer 1550 since it's the same exact card, are much newer than the outdated Killer Ones. like 3 generations older. So sad, especially with the release of Windows 10 Redstone 5, Killer Networking didn't even bother to release any updated WLAN drivers or Bluetooth Drivers!
Take a look:
Killer Networking Drivers: https://www.killernetworking.com/killersupport/driver-downloads
Intel Drivers: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/72252/Intel-PROSet-Wireless-Software
Compare the Bluetooth Driver versions for an example, you will see the Killer Drivers have been on v2.60 since more than 5 months while Intel released 2.70 then 2.90 just recently with the release of Windows 10 Redstone 5.
I have sworn to never buy a laptop that has the "Killer" sticker on it.

I ask because I am using network drivers that are old. They work well, so there is no point whatsoever in updating them. As a general rule, when your system is stable and performing well, it is not even a smart thing to do. It might not be with the "latest and greatest" driver installed.Last edited: Nov 18, 2018Papusan likes this. -

For some reason, whenever Mr. Fox tags or quotes me, I never get notifications. I do get all other notifications from all other users and he's not on my block list obviously what could be the issue? -

I couldn't say. Maybe unfriend/unsubscribe to him and resubscribe. Message me privately (which you're always welcome to do) if that doesn't work.

We only release drivers after we have tested them to make sure they work well with our feature set, and if the driver has updates that affect the Intel device that the 1550 is based upon. The current Intel Wi-Fi driver on Intel's website for the 9260 is 20.90.7, while the current version on our website is 20.80.0.5. We have not received any complaints that indicate that there is a driver issue with the 1550. If you have had an issue with 20.80.0.5, I can certainly notify QA to test for whatever issues you are seeing, though I will need some details in order for them to duplicate the problem.
Regarding Bluetooth drivers, those are best left alone unless you are experiencing problems. Windows 10 too often has problems with Bluetooth to mess with a working setup. The drivers that we have on our website are the latest known drivers that we have tested to work well. For the most part, Windows Update will update your Intel Bluetooth drivers when Microsoft decides that it is safe to do so based upon their testing with the current version of Windows and your hardware configuration.

Hello gents. I have an issue with my mini DP on the GT62VR RE. The pins have got really bent somehow and I can't get output anymore to my 144hz monitor. I have tried bending them back into place and that worked before but now they seem completely ruined.
My monitor can't do 144hz over HDMI as far as I can tell.
https://gtrusted.com/check-if-your-...splay-docking-station-with-usb-power-delivery This article seems to think that on the GT62VR RE the USB C 3.1 can do video output which would allow me to get 144hz.
Has anyone tried using it for video output? I'm aware that it isn't a thunderbolt port on this laptop but from what I have read as long as it has displayport mode then it should be ok.
Any advice/adapters etc that people know of would be great! Ty! -
Can anyone verify if the GL62VR-7RFX uses the same chassis as the GT62vr/other 62 line variants?
I'm guessing it shares a lot of the same components but figured I would ask
