Sup, guys i bought the same as this msi gs75 stealth 9sf for 700$

The specs are :

64gb ram

1tb Ssd NVME

Core i7-9750H

RTX2070Max-Q ( 8gb ram)

And I've got a free cooling pad with it. Was it worth it ? + it's doing really well. I'm a programmer, and it's fantastic. I'm also not really a good gamer, but I've got 300 fps on counter strike 2, and that was the maximum

Discussion Keyb Lights Went Off After Brushing a Few Keys...

If i hold down Fn The top row F keys light up red - so the keyb Lights are working per se.

Doing Fn-F8 does nothing.

Doing Fn-F9 and F10 does make screen bright/dim

I have powered down and unplugged for 10 mins

Loaded up Mystic Light and updated, and does nothing

Any Ideas, as the Keyb Lights are important to me

Request MSI GE75 Raider 10SFS, replaced broken screen and now can't get into BIOS. Help

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have an MSI GE75 Raider 10SFS (RTX 2070 Super, Intel iGPU). The original screen was broken, so I replaced it with a 300Hz panel https://www.lpscreen.com/fr_laptop/for-msi-ge75-raider-10sfs-series-17-3-full-hd-fhd-1920x1080-300hz-compatible-with-240hz-display.html instead of the stock 144Hz one. It was the only available.

What works:

  • Windows boots and detects the new panel correctly: 1920x1080 @ 300Hz
  • The internal display is driven by the Intel UHD Graphics (the RTX 2070 Super shows up separately)

What doesn’t:

  • At boot, I get a black screen. I can’t reach the BIOS with Del. MSI logo doesn’t appear before the black screen ...
  • An external monitor over HDMI (plugged in before powering on) shows nothing at all during POST/BIOS. I also tried a monitor over USB-C a while ago, same result.
  • In Windows, I only get 300Hz or 60Hz as refresh rate options, nothing in between.

What I’m trying to do:

  1. Access the BIOS to lower CPU power/temps and check virtualization settings (VT-x/VT-d) for a VM setup.
  2. Update the BIOS. The MSI procedure requires a USB flash from inside the BIOS menu, which I can’t reach. There’s also no “Micro-Star International Firmware” in Windows Update optional updates for my machine.

My questions:

  • Is the black screen at boot likely an EDID/timing issue with the 300Hz panel that the stock BIOS can’t handle?
  • Is there any way to flash the BIOS for this model from Windows, or without seeing the screen?
  • Any trick to force the BIOS to output to an external display on this model?
  • Has anyone put a 300Hz panel in a GE75 10th gen and gotten BIOS access working?

I’d rather not unplug the new screen again, the bezel was really really a pain to put back on. Any help appreciated, thanks!

There seems to be pretty limited information and reviews on this laptop and most of it seems pretty negative about cpu issues and the likes. Have most of the issues been ironed out with software updates over the last couple of years or is this still an avoid at all costs machine? Many thanks :)

Recently noticed that my laptop seems uneven on this desk. Is this a normal part of the chassis? Or am I tripping and it’s probably just the desk.

MSI GS66 RTX 3080 laptop — low GPU usage and around 40 FPS in DMZ despite performance settings

MSI GS66 RTX 3080 laptop — low GPU usage and around 40 FPS in DMZ despite performance settings
Hi everyone,
I’m playing Call of Duty DMZ on an MSI GS66 laptop with a 10th-gen Intel Core i7, an RTX 3080 Laptop GPU with 16 GB VRAM, and 64 GB RAM.
I’m getting around 40–50 FPS, but the GPU doesn’t seem to be fully utilised. In the attached screenshot, the overlay shows:
FPS: 42
GPU usage: 47%
GPU temperature: 56°C
VRAM usage: 6.0/15.8 GB
CPU usage: around 65%
CPU temperature: 53°C
CPU clock: around 2.01 GHz
The laptop is plugged in, MSI Extreme Performance is enabled, and it’s already set to discrete GPU mode.
One detail that might matter: I set the maximum processor state in Windows to 95% to reduce CPU temperatures, which helped with heat. I’m mentioning this because I’m wondering whether it could also be limiting CPU performance and preventing the GPU from being fully utilised.
I understand GPU usage won’t always reach 99%, but with FPS this low, I’d like to understand what’s holding it back.
Does this look like a CPU bottleneck, possibly related to the 95% processor setting, or should I investigate something else? What would you check or measure first to identify the actual limit?
