    Hello, I have a medion erazer x7833 which seems like the same as an msi gt70 laptop, I'm wondering where I could find an unlocked bios, or a tutorial about how to make one. The reason I wanted to do this is to have the ability to undervolt gpu and cpu and fan control.
    More specs:
    i7 4710mq
    gtx 970m
    16gb ram
    Bios brand: american megatrends inc
    Bios version: E1763IM7.50V
    Bios build: 03/11/2015
    EC version: 1763EM71 Ver7.15
    EC build: 10/08/2014

    Contact svet, hes on the msi forum under the private bios/ec sub forum, make a post there about what you want to do and send him a donation. I have had him perform several tasks throughout the years and I have been so happy with his work. Ask him to do the following:

    Bios unlock
    special vbios for your 970M (it will preform so much better than what you have stock, the performance that I had was unreal) , I was getting about 10-20 more fps)
    Ask svet if you need an EC bios, I doubt you would need it because its haswell.

    Thanks for the replay, I reached out to svet and got my unlocked bios but the most difference in temps made the custom fan curve by flashing the ec and repasting it, undervolting and liquid metal had less effect for me :^)
