    Hey guys! I have completed this upgrade and just wanted to add a note for you out there that are planning on following these instructions.

    There is another screw that needs to be removed located at the left vent- inward, towards the battery.

Hi,

Hi,

I was wondering if you could help me? I need to find a complete bottom section for my MSI GS60 2QEAs it has completely melted. If you could let me know of any possible suppliers I’ll be very grateful.
