My RMA status now shows MSI is shipping it today. I should get it back exactly one month after I shipped it. Finally!

First, it wasn't sent in for a GPU. It was the bezel. Second, the status shows it is in the shipping stage now. No telling what I will get back. It may be a desktop.Last edited: Nov 7, 2016praetorianx, hmscott, DukeCLR and 1 other person like this. -

Brightness wacky
SCM has the brightness at 0
If I try to adjust it, it resets instantly to 0 again
Adaptive brightness is off so not sure
If I change video more to Intel graphics it's fine but when I switch back to th3 nvidia it goes back to 0
The function keys are able to adjust the brightness
Any idea on why SCM is wacky?
Also the video mode gamer etc
Show brightness 0 also -
That's hilarious, when I sent my GT80 in for an actual faulty GPU with dead VRAM, I got it back a week and a half later with a note saying "reseated SLI cable."

Got my tracking number. I'm surprised they are shipping it 2nd day air. Customer service replied again and said disregard previous message about the video card. Apparently the RMA tech sent them the wrong info. They also updated the bios and EC firmware.

Can anyone tell me which model numbers of the GT73VR have G-Sync?

Once I load and lock the profile do I have to launch the application when windows starts? -
As for coil whine, I don't hear anything but airflow, I would look into the problem. I also would not put any non approved lubricant on the fans.
keep us informed on how it all works out.Atma likes this. -

Reason the G-Sync feature not listed on MSI website for GT73VR Titan Pro, according to one of the re-seller
According to Nvidia contract; Msi is not officially approved for G-Sync. However, we do see the technology that would make it capable; that is the reason why it is not listed.
Above doesn't apply on 4K model -
If they don't have Nvidia's blessing, they don't have G-Sync. Mobile G-Sync is basically just an extortion system for licensing fees. There's zero extra hardware involved, unlike in external G-Sync.

I would fill out a ticket at MSI, a total reset seems like a major issue, if not now, later.

Someone in the forum mentioned another program for replacing the dragon center... i cannot find it.. is this possible ? using something else and overlocking the gpu cpu and controlling the fans , but not with dragon center ??

thanks a million.. by the way i think i found the source of the problem.. it looks like not from the dragon center but from the killer wireless adapter causing the resets ...can i change the drivers ?
i have the newest one from the msi site -
Uninstall the Killer Suite, reboot, install the "drivers only" version, and hopefully that will catch you up on fixes.
Driver Only Packages
Drivers packages for Killer products that include base drivers only (no Killer Features).

Later, when you have time to futz with it, you can uninstall the "drivers only" version, reboot and install the latest "Suite" version, set the upload/download values in the Systray Settings app, and that should give you local bandwidth management that will allow you to do simultaneous downloads, streaming, and browsing without lag or stuttering in playback. Works well for me, under Windows 8.1.

Interesting, I know nothing about failed GPUs but if you switch to the intel GPU does the defect go away?

Finally got my laptop back. The bezel on the right side is fixed, but they sent it back with the bezel on the left side doing the same thing in the same area. I answered their survey about how happy I was with my RMA process (HAH!) and told them if they could send me instructions for removing the bezel I'll fix it my self.

Wow what a disappointing story, truly disappointing.

I just ordered another drive I'm going to set up in raid 0. I've never done raid but it looks pretty simple from the MSI video I watched. Has anyone done it on this laptop? Any surprises I should know about? I wish I had let GenTechPC do this when I bought it. The drive is almost twice as much as I could have gotten it for then.

Its not coil whine, that is something different and if it had that I would send back. I have to admit I'm being very picky here. This is fan bearing noise and I'm sure its not just mine, its the type of fans msi are using. Its not bad enough to send back, I may just take vid highlighting it. If you can't hear high pitch noises well you prob won't notice also when you have fans on above 45% power it goes.
Looking at the alienware 17 r4 forum i still made the right choice overall but looking at the alienware i see better quality fans. Maybe gaming notebooks (MSI pay attention) will eventually buy top branded fans and label them on the case like they are doing with the steelseries keyboard and dynaudio speakers.Last edited: Nov 10, 2016DukeCLR likes this. -

Also I have sent my original GT72 with Haswell for repairs ages ago, warranty sticker was tampered with but it has been fixed free of charge.DukeCLR likes this. -
Yeah, MSI is usually pretty lax about the sticker. It's probably more so they have something to say when a failure was clearly caused by the buyer.
