need more cores processing power, or simply more cache to hold more of those info rather than going into ram. pls give us a desktop HEDT CPU next..

Let me put this a little better....
That sticker only really comes into play if you "Break" said item while trying to "Mod" it, then run and try to claim a warranty.GenTechPC likes this. -
Regardless of their warranty policy actually allowing you to change stuff inside, it's still illegal by US Law.hmscott likes this. -
So they say. And until they are challenged in court with a class action lawsuit. "still illegal by US Law." means nothing.
But let me know when you start that so I can jump on board. -
Here is a good article on why people are still scared to rip that sticker off and open it up. Only applies to the US.

or from the FTC itself, https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/blogs/business-blog/2015/06/latest-word-warranties
But is it worth the risk? I think so, if you're careful. -
I should have added I'm no lawyer, so you're on your own if you choose to tear it off

Any news on the new GT83? Have you received it yet?hmscott likes this. -

Was really hoping for major improvements, and for possible breach of that 40 fps limit on the combined tests in firestrike.... I seem to score about the same in my GT80s in the combined test as someone with a dual 1080 notebook.....

I wonder.. HOW was THIS achieved?

Also, graphics score of 1070 and 1080 on stock are way ahead of 980m/ or even 980 SLI, by a good marging.Johnksss likes this. -

Are you really thinking to spend 5k to msi? Be really sure what are doing for a notebook you could just change ram and disks after you buy...like a standard dell!!!

gt83vr only has cpu soldered, where as asus gx800 and acer 21x has everything soldered other than ram and storage. -

Is anyone still on the gt80 thread anymore??????ole!!! likes this. -
Hey, does anyone have one of these in their hands yet? i was hearing supposedly they throttle under load and i was looking to confirm with owners.
also how well does the 6820hk stack up vs the 6700k for cpu intensive games?hmscott likes this. -

There's no CPU throttling using 6820HK on GT83VR.
The performance on 6820HK is about 1972 points less than 6700K in Passmark benchmark.-=$tR|k3r=- and hmscott like this. -
In gaming and real work, the difference even with an extreme OC on the 6700K won't be noticeable, except for the added Wind Noise from the 6700K CPU fanzziplex and -=$tR|k3r=- like this. -

It's kind of part and parcel with high end laptops, especially if they make a point of OC'ing in their product marketing tools.
The MSI website and videos all promote OC'ing.
Intel made a big deal about OC'ing with the Skylake release - "we even came out with K CPU's dedicated to the Overclocking enthusiasts".
The 6820HK and 6920HQ are both able to be tuned for more performance, and at stock they aren't up to their full potential, which is what buyers cross-brand shopping want to see to help them cinch their decisions.
You'll sell more laptops if you make them more enticing. And, right now many of us are waiting for someone to do just this kind of testing so we know what we are getting ourselves into before buying.
I want to make it clear I really appreciate the videos as they are and they are awesome as they are - it's just that we would love them to also be OC / tuned awesome too.
Thanks again for making the videosLast edited: Sep 15, 2016CaerCadarn and Kevin@GenTechPC like this. -
Ok. That sounds pretty good.
I have been debating between this machine and the p870dm3.

Otherwise it just gives you are warm fuzzy feeling that you did something to control and improve your laptop.
I do it for those reasons, not for actual improvement in performance in games.
I'm talking about the "allowed / safe" OC within the limits of the BIOS / vbios.Last edited: Sep 15, 2016 -
Please explain your comment for us, so we all know what you really meant.
But, I guess not, so what did you mean to say? -
It's simple.
Example Only!
1: Hmscott buys GT80 from us.
2: Hmscott over clocks said laptop.
3: Then tries to rma said laptop. We ask, a simple question. Did you overclock said laptop? You reply, no I did not overclock said laptop.
4: We then go an look up said comments on nbr forums where we find you did in fact over clock said laptop.
5: And we then wonder why said person would not be truthful. Since the only reason we asked was we needed to fill in a checkbox on the rma request. The rma was going to go through regardless, but to make the case look better said person says what they think someone wants to hear.
6: Now if you went and dropped said laptop in a bucket of water, well then request would be denied.
This is what happens about 98 percent of the time with high end laptops. I'm not saying everyone goes and overclocks for a performance gain, but they all do in fact test the water. That is a fact if your laptop comes with preinstalled overclocking software.
And over clock is an over clock no matter how one choose to look at it.
Now the answer to your question is....
It's more of an inside joke to people who sale products and hear every excuse known to man on trying to rma something.
Side note:
In my years of over clocking laptops... I have had to actually pay for:
1 980M
2 Motherboards
1 580M
1 680M
2 780M's
All because of user error. And it was explained so that it didn't affect my warranty.Last edited: Sep 15, 2016 -
That's what I thought it was all about, an inside joke about how people lie about something so simple to disprove that they didn't need to lie about in the first place.
I went one step further to make the point that OC'ing within the "allowed / safe" realm of the stock BIOS/vbios isn't something they should be afraid admitting - since it wouldn't do anything to the laptop parts.
But, I guess you and your shop don't hold the vbios/BIOS replacements that get rid of the "safeties" of the stock BIOS as dangerous either?
They are both safe in your eyes?
So if someone said they replaced the BIOS/vbios to unlock TDP and be able to increase voltage on the CPU / GPU that wouldn't void their warranty with your shop? -
We found that you tampered with the motherboard. Do you wish to buy a new one to replace the one you fried?
You burnt a mosfet because you put the heat sink on incorrectly, do you wish to buy a new gpu?
If you refuse, your warranty is then voided and your serial number is blacklisted. Warranty covers parts and labor. And in that instance it would cover labor.
Edit:
Have a second look at prior post....hmscott likes this. -
The other points are understood, if you are pulling apart your laptop to re-paste or otherwise modify your laptop you are risking your warranty at best - if you break something while doing the work or due to that work - the warranty is voided. That's understood.
It's that grey area of OC'ing that people aren't sure about.
Is OC'ing while using the vendor supplied tools using the vendor supplied vbios/BIOS considered ok?
Is OC'ing while using non-vendor supplied BIOS/vbios considered abuse and not covered under the standard warranty?
I have always believed the 1st was ok, as confirmed by vendors, and the 2nd was not ok as confirmed by vendors.
Is it the same with you and your shop? -

I'm different in....
If this is not covered under warranty for what I did, how much to replace.
Not sit back and complain and ask for free all the time.This is a very expensive hobby which will call for the user to actually have to pay. I have no problem with that. Do you? I'm just asking.
