    My advice to u all who have a 8SF with a RTX 2070.
    A overclock on the "MSI Afterburner" isn´t the same as before. 50MHz = 100MHz in real time.
    I found strange that I had 400MHz more in my Core "lol" ofc I had, I was using 200MHz more that is the same as 400MHz in Core. In other PCs, Laptops I ever had this never happen!

    Leave u a print.

    Also... I finaly tweaked max I can my CPU and I get this perfomance and no throttle "yet".
    [​IMG]


    Gona to make more gameplays and benchmarks, with time I post my final settings of GPU and CPU!

    I never said 10k with a 2070. I have a 2080. Sending it back would fix your issue lol, so it would do something. And I NEVER hit PL, even prior to the BIOS mod I never hit PL.

    Yes its kinda funny, because I beat most scores and reviews outhere.

    Maybe its a hardware issue as u say OR in worst case its a issue related to ... hmm ... Software? Gona make a clean format!
    Anyways my country those rules for return/money or change product only applys IF I buy online.

    But I gona contact the store, trying doesn´t hurt right?!
    I can´t stay without Laptop, its kinda parte of my work bro!

    I will take print. Just finishing some tests, atleast the "power throttle" is gone, temps are up to 70ºC at 3.89Ghz at all 6 Cores more then enough right? Got 1230 in Cinebench. So CPU is sorted out.

    Now I need help...

    My GPU is weird. So, Im using GPU-Z and MSI Afterburner, both when Im using the GPU in game or bench gives me speeds in the CORE that are way high of standart. I got 2000MHz and sometimes 1750MHz.

    I did underclock it, lol even 300MHz and almost 0 diference in benchmarks, even got better.
    What happens to ur graphicsbar "stats" when u are using it on a bench?

    DO u have FC5?
    Or 3DMark 11

    Anyone else has horrible back light bleed which is visible even in a well lit room during the MSI pre-boot logo? (not to mention space games/dark scenes etc.)
    Looks worse in reality than the photo shows - especially since it has the dark/light/dark gradients along the bottom edge. The photos are corrected to not over-pronounce the BLB.

    Looks like this laptop is going back as well... oh well... i have **** luck with electronics recently and I`m returning everything xD (already two GS65 and now wanted to try the GE75).
    Other than the bleed the laptop is very nice.

    Is it okay if someone can upload the msi afterburner OC scan file for the 2080? I am not sure why but everytime I run the scan I am getting BSOD.

    Received my GE75 8SG.

    I haven't tweaked very much at all (basically, just a very very mild undervolt of CPU cache and core -- 40mv, because even going to 60mv seems to make TimeSpy crash in the CPU test; no OC'ing of anything, no BIOS tweaks, stock drivers, etc).

    TimeSpy: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/34175699
    -- 9218 overall, 9787 graphics, 6936 CPU

    FireStrike: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/34177745

    Sintetics benchs shows that a RTX 2080 Laptop is equal to a RTX 2070 Desktop and RTX 2070 is middle of a GTX 1070/1070 Ti Desktop.

    Funny...

    Hey guys, new to the forum here, figured I’d share my story thus far.

    Received my GE75-8SG today in the mail from HID. I ordered it with 32gigs of ram and LM and Fujipoly.

    Opened it up and was very pleased with the laptops looks, build quality and screen. I started the process of downloading a million gigs of games before I leave for Africa this weekend for work. As stuff was downloading I noticed that the computer wasn’t recognizing the 2080.

    Fast forward to a fresh install of windows and a bios reflash and 2 1/2 hours on the phone with HID tech support and we decided to RMA the computer and start anew.

    While I’m pretty disappointed that the computer isn’t working after waiting a while for it I do have to say I’m very pleased that I purchased the computer from HID. They understood that I was leaving for Africa soon and they are getting their hustle on to get me a replacement by Saturday.

    Has anyone else heard of any bad RTX2080 cards in the laptops? Maybe I’m just the one in a million haha

    Alote problems in MSI GE75 series, specialy in RTX 2080s in Europe, got that feedback from MSI themselfs that are working in a new BIOS update.
    Alote ppl complains of some issues.

    My personal problem is ur powersupply. Its just 280W. For my version 8SF its very good, but u guys should have 320W powersupply. U get to high powerconsumption.
    But ye, not everyone complains. Not sure whats about in the states are happening but in EU we have alote problems.

    Lets hope u won´t get any. The Thermalpads aren´t necessary to change dude, only LM. Even MSI says they put high quality pads but ye, LM will be great to lower ur temps big time.

    I just saw under the heat sink there is paste there they are not using pads. That is why I'm thinking I should get pads instead of reusing that same paste is this a good idea?
