It comes together with MSI Afterburner and is able to do a nice CPU-level frame limiting. I'd say everything looks good so far, tho I also always recommend using RTSS for gaming. Yeah, modern hardware is smart and won't let you burn it, and if it for some reason goes too hot - it will just shut down your laptop at once to save it. Fortunately, I doubt you'll come across the game that will use all 12 threads to their maximum, at least I haven't seen anything like that so far, so nothing to worry about. 84 actually does sound like thermal throttling for Intel, but to be sure you've to check the CPU frequency. this may have been evidence of thermal throttling, idk.īut it looks like the laptop will at least try to save it self from burning itself up 12 threads to be precise. using the cpu burner feature, i tried setting it to use all 12 cores, and the temp spiked, just briefly at 84c then backed off to 74c.

I also took the opportunity to install something called msi lombustor. Click to expand.Originally posted by Chris Solomon:i did as you suggested, and the gpu temp maxed out at 56c. This couldn't have been easier! Props to MSI for this awesome tool and whatever method they use to apply the DPI scaling.Now, getting a 4K screen isn't as horrible as it first sounded to me before. Who cares how, but it works! No need for using the above tool which has to start every time you boot Windows. You set a DPI scaling, some programs adhere to it and others ignore it and display blurred as if you were running the screen in a non-native resolution.For more detail about what I mean, see.Today, just for testing, I installed the MSI Sizing Options (available for most if not MSI laptops) and tried to set a DPI scaling of 125% or even 150%, to my surprise, everything was crystal clear, just the way Windows 7 / 8 DPI scaling worked, all programs adhered to the DPI scaling as if it were applied on a system level rather on a per app basis. As some of you may know, Windows 10's DPI scaling is flaky ever since the initial release until this date.
