MSI GS66 Stealth 10UH broken af

I need help. I got this laptop back in 2021 and within the first 2 years, it’s been messing up .

the main things is how loud the fan is just from turning on. it’s so loud that I can barely hear myself. the other main thing is how hot it gets even if i’m not playing anything. it goes up and over 90 degrees Celsius and literally burns me. I can smell how hot this thing is.

other problems that occur is the screen switching between a blue hue to a warm hue randomly, battery going down crazy fast, and recently it’s crashed twice from playing Mortal Kombat.

mind you, i recently factory reset this laptop and MK is the only game i have downloaded now. and I tried to take it to Best Buy (Geek Squad) so they can fix it and they didn’t even open up the laptop or do jack shit. i tried to sell it to Best Buy and they tried to give me like $100 for a $2000+ laptop……..

nothing has worked. idk anything about laptops, so pls dumb down anything u guys say 💔

and if it matters my processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz (idk what any of this means either)

to put it short: got laptop 4 years ago, gets too hot, fan too loud, screen switches hues, battery drains fast, crashed twice, don’t know what to do. Thanks. :-)

Keyboard keys failing + keyboard backlight issues on MSI Stealth (bought Oct 2023) – should I format or give up?

Hello, I really need some advice because I’m starting to panic a bit.

I’m using an MSI Stealth 16 studio A13V laptop that I bought in October 2023, so it’s still relatively new. Lately, I’ve been



running into multiple keyboard issues:

\- Numpad 1 and 2 are not working properly

\- The letter “O” is failing (Had to change its position in the keyboard)

\- The Backspace key feels like it’s slowly dying / becoming unreliable

\- The keyboard lighting has faded a lot There are no more lighting settings available (it’s stuck at a very dim brightness)

I tried turning the keyboard light off completely, thinking it might reduce stress on the keyboard

What’s weird is that the indicator lights (ESC, F1, Caps Lock, and the power button) are still very bright, so it doesn’t seem like a full lighting failure

I honestly don’t know if this is a software/driver issue, firmware problem or a hardware failure (keyboard dying already??!!!)

I’m not sure whether I should try formatting it or is there a troubleshooting method i need to try or just accept that the keyboard is failing

I really love this laptop, which makes this frustrating. My previous laptop (HP Omen) lasted me 7+ years ( I only replaced it because the battery completely died). That’s why this feels way too early for major issues.

Has anyone experienced something similar on MSI laptops or the Stealth series?

Is formatting even worth trying, or does this sound like a hardware problem?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Should I uninstall Killer software?

I have MSI GE66 Raider 10UG

**https://www.msi.com/Laptop/GE66-Raider-10UX/Specification**

It has Killer LAN device.

I have 1000mbps fiber internet and today I noticed Killer Performance Suite caps Google Chrome speed to 600mpbs. My macbooks getting 1000mbps with the same ethernet cable.

After disabling "Prioritization Engine" of Killer Performance Suite, Google Chrome downloads with full bandwidth. It seems "Prioritization Engine" caps Google Chrome and other software regardless of a Game is running or not. I thought this kind of software supposed to enhance network when a Game runs. What is the point of capping a browser when no Game runs?

Also Steam Sync does not work for some games. I thought it was about Steam software and Steam servers. After disabling "Prioritization Engine", the Steam sync worked flawlessly.

At this point the Killer Performance Suite seems to giving more issues than expected. I have seen ping issues during online gaming even when "Prioritization Engine" was ON though I am not sure the root cause was Killer Performance Suite.

Should I uninstall Killer software? Is there any benefit keeping the software and its 5 related services at all?

Please treat your MSI good

Hi everybody, it’s my first time messaging on the sub. Reddit has a MSI laptop fan boy for as long as I can remember I have just never been so upset.

To keep it short. three laptops I’ve purchased to replace the last. They all ended up broken whether it was a screen because somebody disrespected anIt broke it off. I tried repairing it that worked out for a little while I ended up purchasing a MSI stealth. I love the stealth… had to sell it to help my surgery I’m Sept. my old gs rtx4050 had the gpu go out. Sorry for the grammar and the typing the surgery they had to fuse my wrist bones together, so I’m paralyzed h my left wrist an thumb.

Thank you for listening to me. I love you guys and game on.

Need help finding a part

I need a keyboard replacement for a msi prestige a16 ai+ a3hmg 016us

One of my mothers cat threw up on the track pad in the middle of the night because for whatever reason she leaves a $1200 laptop sitting out i told her to get the warranty off newegg when she bought it but is now paying the price for not doing so

Also the track pad doesn't work and only QWE keys work

Laptop shuts down randomly

I have a MSI Raider GE68 HX 13V laptop that randomly shuts off when playing games like; Fortnite, Roblox, call of duty, etc...

Everything else runs fine when not gaming

I've tried countless things and nothing can fix it but I think I may be due to overheating. I've put my laptop on a cooling pad for better airflow and that didn't do much as well as maxing the fans out. Usually before shutdown the cpu temp is at 95 and the gpu temp is at around 91-92.

Anyone know what I can do to fix it? Or should I send it to MSI or bring it to a tech store.
