GP63 Leopard 8RE Charger busted?

Hi!

So I have a Leopard 8RE that I've been using for the past few years that I've been pretty happy with, but tonight it stopped charging all of a sudden.

I was playing Marvel Rivals and the game started lagging like if I was playing without the adapter in. When I checked, it was still plugged in but the little light on the adapter box wasn't on. I unplugged the charger from my powerstrip and plugged it back in, the light came on again and when I plugged the adapter back into the computer it started charging like normal. Until I turned MR back on and the laptop stopped charging and the light went off on the adapter again.

I wanted to test it with a different game but when I plugged a controller into the laptop the same thing happened. So I unplugged and re-plugged the adapter into the powerstrip again, but this time the light turned off as soon as I plugged it into the computer.

Now unplugging and replugging the adapter does nothing. It seems like it's just not taking any power in at all.

Can I replace the adapter and it'll be fine? Or is this potentially something wrong inside the computer I need to worry about? And how do I find a replacement adapter if that is it?

Best thermal paste for GE78 14VIG

My GE78 laptop is getting very hot and even after gaming, the CPU temperature is still 90 degrees Celsius on idle, even after 1.5 years of purchase.

I am looking for a good and suitable thermal paste for it. Since I can't find PTM7950 thermal paste in my country, I am looking for Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut or MX-6 or Cooler Master MASTERGEL MAKER thermal paste.

Which one do you think is good for my GE78?

Do I even need thermal pads for VRM and VRAM, since the paste is factory paste?

How to Switch Boot Drives?

Hi, I got a Vector 16 HX AI A2XWHG about 3 months ago. I also got a Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB to Upgrade from the 1TB Micron 2500 it came with. I successfully cloned the drive, but when I go into BIOS, only my 1TB SSD is showing up as an available boot drive. My Samsung is still detected in the Drive Information section, but I'm not sure what happened. I used Macrium Reflect to clone my drive, but I'm not sure if that would be the reason why. Any advice? Thanks!

Laptop only running on 2.5 GHz

Hi everyone, sorry if this is a strange post, but I have been having some issues with my MSI recently (GF65 Thin).

For the past couple of weeks, it is disconnecting from the wifi as soon as I try to load up games (L4D2, Planet Zoo, Phasmo, even tried OW2). I open the game, and it just cuts the wifi. Close the game again, and it reconnects.

If I unplug the laptop, it works fine, but the battery life isnt ideal. Plug it back in to the power source, and its kaputt again.

I tried loads of troubleshooting (unclick box where it turns off device to save power, updated drivers etc, plus more that I found online) and nothing worked. In a last ditch attempt, I went into network adapters and set it to 2.5 Ghz instead of the 5 option, and suddenly it works again, but not the smoothest.

Was just wondering, is this a laptop issue? Or is there something wrong with my wifi box? I can stream netflix etc on my macbook and scroll tiktok on my phone simultaneously without any buffering whatsoever, it is only my msi that has issues, so I think it must be a CPU issue of some sort, but I am far from a tech expert and kinda unsure what is happening.

My laptop is like 5 or 6 years old now, and I use it pretty much daily, so it might just be deteriorating over time... Any advice would be much appreciated. Has anyone had this issue before?

Thanks!

Upgrading SSD on MSI G75 Thin 10UEK

If I understand correctly, I have a m.2 SSD slot (which has the factory 500gb SSD) and an empty SATA 2.5 slot where I can put in a new SSD. Are there any highly recommended 2.5 SSDs? How would the more experienced go about upgrading SSD?

My laptops fans started very wierd vibrating / squeaking noises

Title, i was playing games then all of a sudden it started making this very weird and loud noise, so I did some research and figured my fan was dying. I have some questions, how long before it completely dies (i use my laptop quite often)? And also if i continue to use this for say the next couple month without replacing the fans, is that safe? Thanks.

MSI Sword 15A12UE Thermal Throttling Problems

Hey y'all-


I've had my Sword for nearly three years at this point, and almost the entire time, overheating and thermal throttling have been very prominent issues with the laptop. As I write this, my CPU is at about 65-70 °C. Whenever I play *any* game, it will shoot up to nearly 100 °C, averaging about 96-97 °C. I assume that is the thermal throttling point, as I have very stuttery frames and significant FPS drops. I can't even achieve 144 °C in most 3D games.


Is there anything I can do to fix this? I reapplied thermal paste last summer and plan to do so in a few days when I'm home from break. Is it possible to underclock the CPU? I never have issues with GPU temperatures, so I want to balance the CPU and ensure it runs as efficiently as possible. I keep my fan speeds on max whenever I play any game. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I would like to not speedrun CPU failure.

Alpha17 GPU 1 temp reporting weird spiking

I've been having issues with the laptop's graphics system crashing, leaving me for several seconds in the black screen before it recovers. I had initially thought the problem was related to memory leaks in the browser, but today it called that into question by repeatedly crashing whether I was streaming videos in the browser (the previously blamed behavior) or not. Not knowing what else to do, I pulled up Afterburner to just watch the graphs for a bit, and saw the temp on GPU 1 spike to an obviously bad value of 50907128 C*. I noticed that at the same time, the GPU 1 memory temp dropped to 0. When the GPU 1 temp comes down, the memory starts reporting properly.

Any thoughts?

I mostly use my laptop on plugged in, 3–4 times I played game on battery not more than that, and I also set my battery charging limit to 80% since bought, and charged to 100% sometime, and using battery rarely like it goes to 60–70 sometime not lower than that.
