    If you purchase a "new" laptop with an unregistered MSI Warranty, you should be counted as the original owner, and be qualified for the trade-in deal. Used or 2nd hand owners don't qualify.

    I would file the information requested for the trade-in as in Post #1 here:

    GT72/GT72S and GT80/GT80S Owners GPU Upgrade Discussion

    You should have 2 generations of GPU upgrades, Pascal now and "Volta" later.

    if you just bought it you are better off returning it and buying a newer model.

    For exactly how much did you buy this GT72? Is it brand new?

    Unless you got an amazing deal, you're better off returning it.
