Is the GTX 670m on my G75 Defective?

[Destroyer99]

I bought the Asus G75VS RS72 with the GTX 670m and after running furmark twice i am getting over 90C.

The first time i ran it was for the 15 minute option, i got up to 93 C now i thought it might be cause the vents were 6 inches from the wall or cause i was using the stock drivers that came with the laptop. Then i ran it again today with the latest beta driver 304. 79 and this time i was a foot and a half from the wall and my room door was open and doing the same benchmark option i got up to 91 C.

Looking at MSI afterburner i idle around 45-55 C (usually it just hovers from 43-49) and when i was playing Diablo 3 i was getting in the mid 70s C.

So is my GPU defective? Or is this normal for the GTX 670m?

So I just sent the laptop in the mail. I am wondering for anyone that has sent something into asus how is ther service for repairs. Do they do a good job and work fast.

I live in Portugal. Here the service is very good. Since the moment I sent my laptop to repair till the day it arrived passed 15 days. In my case they had to replace the screen and test the GPU so I guess they were kinda quick.

But it probably varies with the place you live. I heard in Malasya they take like 2 months.

Just because they have no more in stock doesn't necessarily mean you can't return/exchange it. I'm sure any reputable retailer will honor a return/exchange and give you the new one once they re-stock. I would really suggest escalating to a manager at the retailer to get them to exchange it out especially since it seems like it's within the return window. Otherwise just return it and buy it again when they are back in stock.
