‘high spec’ laptop terrible performance with Trackit

I just got a msi vector laptop- 18”, rtx 5080, 64gb ram, 10tb nvme ssd. Supposedly this thing has 40gb usb c ports. Windows 11.

Whenever I scan with trackit it it CONSTANTLY disconnects I can’t even get thru a single scan.

Plugged into my pc that’s like 8 years old it works flawlessly (things a beast tho, 32core, 256gb ram, 3090ti, only 1 usb c port on the back of my motherboard). Windows 10.

Anyone have any tips for me with this laptop? Revopoint did send me a new usb c cord to try but same experience.. I bought the laptop from b&h and just learned they don’t return laptops :frowning:

Hi @martin8907

On my new laptop I can only use USB-C thunderbolt port with Trackit, the other ports don’t works with it , neither other scanners , getting message “ USB device is not recognized “

Try to use other ports , and if the same maybe unchecking GPU rendering , you can also try to uncheck GPU acceleration and scan only using CPU and see if it disconnect as well , just to find what is really going on .

It can be the port that losing the power , it can be the graphic card .

Make sure your laptop is plugged in while using Trackit and the system is set of full performance .

My laptop perform well only on Turbo mode with Trackit and power plugged in .

You still have warranty on your laptop , so best time to find out what is not working proper .

I’ve had to manually load updated chipset drivers to get high bandwidth USB to work properly.

They don’t always auto update with Windows.

Exact model of laptop might help with getting answers eg Intel or AMD cpu ?.

Hi @ChrisHS

I see it too often lately . Nobody really posted a direct solution for it yet , would be great if you can share more info about with the community and users

Thanks in advance !

thanks guys, I’ll try some thins on the laptop soon.
My first scans with it I wasn’t terribly impressed with the highest quality for small objects- so I have been holding out for the metro y pro to get here… but might mess with the trackit again this weekend since the metro y keeps delaying

Here my small objects scans with Trackit … For inspiration .. MetroY Pro have the same accuracy as Trackit so the results will be the same


Scans like this come usually from $21 K scanners so it is actually ver impressive.

Practice make it perfect !

oh interesting thank you for sharing wow you are getting really good detail there maybe i should try i again lol

well some good news- after updating chipset, and installing nvidia app to update my driver, it seems to finally be happy with the following GPU settings in my windows 11 settings-

Optimizations for windowed games - OFF (reduces latency- this may have been the culprit to my disconnects)
GPU Acceleration - ON (it connected but wouldn’t scan any frames with this disabled)
Visible Refresh Rate - OFF

Did you run the PC performance check in Revo Trackit, in the top right corner above ?

It should tell you exactly what works best so you can see if everything is optimal .

Best to check after the Trackit is connected , it seriously don’t need more power to run optimal than you have , I am getting optimal frames with just RTX 4060 , there is something odd about it , it should just working without all of the graphic card settings straight out the box
