    It's a GTX 680M for sure.

    It's a 01S, based on previous record.
    Also, you can also determine it this way if the RAM ICs are laid on both sides, which gives the card 4GB, otherwise 2GB.

    well stupid me spilled some beer on my laptop tonight and anyways i didnt spill too much, somewhere around 70 milliliters, and it spilled on the keyboard and touchpad from the left control all the way through spacebar, and to the right control, and some of the home row keys (a to l) anyways, the computer seems to be working absolutely fine, even after 3 hours since the incident occured. ive shut it down,restarted, played around (didnt test games yet) but ya, anyways, my question is are the keys removable, cause i heard that some laptop keyboard keys are not removable, but if they are removable, ill maybe follow this guide Clean Your Sticky Laptop Keyboard : Remove Keys because my keys are sticky, especially the space bar, and a few other keys from the ones ive mentioned,

    It's best to remove it and dry it completely. If the liquid is sugared drink then it's going to be sticky afterwards and worsens.
    Remove the keyboard, and then wash it with alcohol, then make sure to let it sit dry. Do not use any blower that uses heat or else the membrane keys will melt.

    Hi need some help please. had this laptop for a year now without any issue. Suddenly I noticed that the power button shows a white light instead of orange. I believe this means that the integrated graphics is being used instead of the gtx680m. when i jump into a game, it turns orange for a bit then switches back to white. please help me. thank you!

    Have you looked at your driver settings for optimus? Tested things like setting all programs to use the dedicated card then restarting to see if that helps? Opened gpu-z (set to dgpu) before opening a game and looking at clocks? Have you re-installed your graphics drivers?

    Once you check everything Meaker told you, there is a faster way to launch games on the dedicated GPU: just right-click the game's shortcut and select "run with high performance graphics". This way you force the game to the dGPU.
