Full EC dump per scenario (optional, very helpful)

Hardware verification (optional — lets us mark your model "Tested" right away)

• Silent noticeably lowers CPU package power and/or fan noise vs Balanced (seen in HWiNFO64, or clearly quieter/cooler by ear).
• Extreme unlocks full power / the fans ramp up as expected.
• Switching profiles in the app is stable — no crash, black screen, or stuck fans, and the app's profile matches what I selected.

Confirmation

• I understand this is experimental and EC writes are at my own risk.
• I'm willing to test a proposed recipe on my machine and report back.

@Dkrimz Thank you for the full set of three reports. Status after reading all of them: your fan curve is now verified (details in #125), but the model itself cannot be promoted yet, because this capture does not show what MSI Center writes: every scenario column contains the exact same bytes (the mode byte reads Extreme's 0xC4 in all four), which means the machine stayed in one scenario for the whole capture. The wizard photographs whatever the laptop is doing at each step, so the scenario has to actually change between steps. Here is how to redo it, click by click:

1. Open MSI Center next to GhostDeck's wizard (Models tab -> "Report my model").
2. When the wizard asks for Silent: click the Silent tile in MSI Center first, wait about 5 seconds, then click Next in the wizard.
3. Repeat the same rhythm for Balanced, Extreme Performance and Super Battery - always: switch the tile, wait, then Next.
4. Submit the report; the form opens and fills itself in. Please keep the "Full EC dump" step enabled.

With a clean capture, plus the clean power re-run described in #126, your model has a clear path to Tested.
