Sorry about the potato cam; I’ll try and get a philips then, thanks! Took one out, and it didn’t need much effort though; I still needed insight on a proper screwdriver or I’ll just mess it up thats why I went here on the forums lol.

Hi, I’m having troubles with the screws where the cd sits in, and would like to know which screwdriver works the best for this type of screw thanks! MSI GE62VR Apache Pro

Nothing really.. I also checked if there was any viruses, but nothing tbh..

The power plan is still set to ‘optimal’ all is untouched

Before my GE62VR 7rf Apache Pro on idle it’ll stop clocking its gpu and lower the cpu clock when not playing, and when gaming it’ll automatically clock to the requirement of the game. It stopped doing that when I installed msi afterburner which is at a constant clocked/boosting state now.. (though I didnt even placed any digits to overclock it, its on 0 mhz still.) I don’t wanna uninstall it; I liked the features it gives me, but I don’t want it clocked/boosting on idle. Although, I will uninstall it if there is no way for it to be fixed on the settings. Thanks!

Oh I see.. thanks for the insight about the heat on extreme load, it really helps alot since its been at a constant 90°C+ atleast I know now if by any chance it gets up again even on extreme load now I'll know

Oh ok, noted.

For a 3 year old laptop that I never popped open before.. I'm afraid that there would be loads of dust inside (hopefully not though lmao) also planning on buying a cooling pad.. You got a recommendation on a good cooling pad?

I see, would be cautious on doing so. Thank you again

Would an air compressor be safe enough to blow out all the excess dust or dirt inside?

Yep, I'm laying off on gaming until I order a thermal paste, and might the do the fans first. Anyways thanks for the reply

Looked into that, and I might clean my fans and probably change the paste. Thank you for the insight!

Is playing Minecraft with 90 celsius on CPU and 87 on GPU fine on a gaming laptop? or is that too much. (My gaming laptop was with me for 3 years now) On Idle it just goes about 40 - 47 celsius on both CPU & GPU Would Vsync help in any case? Specs: i7-7700HQ 16 GB gtx 1060 64-bit @ 2.80GHz 2.80GHz GE62VR 7RF Apache Pro
