QUOTE(jotaro12 @ May 6 2010, 01:37 AM) Teach?? We can share our experience if you like to sorry bro may i kno how 2 check d temp?I do found out an answer(I guess...) why some people complaint about heat especially during gaming if you're in for hours. I've played AC 2 just now for 2 hours+ with max temp I checked it's just 72C on GPU-Z(ave. 68C). The problem lies on the material of the glossy surface which do hold the heat w/o spreading fast enough thru the other parts like heatsink and causes you felt uncomfortable using the keyboard for longer period especially FPS gaming. I do amaze the max temperature it hit i tried 2 play wit it bt stil not familiar.... o ya...i din use tis laptop for heavy use... for tis moments js online & do paper works... so far tis Y460 is a good catch for my side as i ad surveyed for months for all models |

QUOTE(jotaro12 @ May 6 2010, 11:35 AM) Welcome to the club! mine also manufactured @ 16th March 2010...means i also nonit 2 flash the bios? I think the recent Y460s are already w/ the latest BIOS, so no need to flash. Mine manufactured @16th March and it's already on the latest BIOS version so you guys can use it as a guide. @marky I think you still can get the i5 430M, but you might have to go to LYP/DM to check with them to see whether stocks available. Added on May 7, 2010, 9:34 am QUOTE(rubrubrub @ May 6 2010, 06:13 PM) yeah the last thing i want to do it pay for brand names. hahah i heard from a dude in MV, he said it's about 4 hours but he's selling the 540 at rm3799. u mean d MV Lenovo shop?they r playing the price...last time i asked thy r selling RM3699 then wan charge me 5.5% for installment plan & if i use credit card 2 swipe 1shoot they wil charge me 4% B4 i bought mine Y460 at lowyat...i asked PC3 & they are selling RM3699 also...but as i kno the market price is RM3599 Till the end asked my fren 2 grab for me bcs whole lowyat is out of stock..... Added on May 7, 2010, 9:36 am QUOTE(jotaro12 @ May 6 2010, 08:47 PM) You can use GPU-Z to monitor your graphic card's temp; HWMonitor and Everest for most of your hardware's temp. If possible, make it like a casual science project where temperature are recorded based on starting up, idle, load, long hours etc so you can know your lappy better Thanks bro..i wil do it on next week whn i outstation as in office i cant download thiings...

QUOTE(ALeUNe @ May 7 2010, 09:39 AM) Why don't you get from our forum member? haha...bcs i wan to make myself secure Go search for the seller in garage sale (ahem, he's from T**ping). He quoted me RM3500 for Y460 + RM30 hassle-free postage to your door step. Added on May 7, 2010, 2:26 pm QUOTE(leng2 @ May 7 2010, 10:09 AM) i used card (to do installment) for rm3550 flat, with the cordless phone compulsory free gift. i think you got urs slightly overpriced. i tink u get urs at pc fair?At pc fair...i got asked around bt too bad tat thy told me... all Y460 with i5 540m ad sold out Added on May 7, 2010, 2:28 pm QUOTE(jotaro12 @ May 7 2010, 11:39 AM) This is a common scene in LYP whereby they'll know the stock availability of other shops and decide whether it's own price should remain/jack up/lower down. If you have an item which is hot selling and there's no stocks on other shops, I'm sure you'll jack it up too to make more profit so till d end i bought from my fren..which i am willing to pay for the handling charges to him than to those that jack d price up...as he gav me a good price...

QUOTE(jotaro12 @ May 14 2010, 06:03 PM) @^bAbym310n^ i also wan to kno y my HDD got sound...bt d sound is sometimes got sometimes nop... Your case really brings me a lot of thoughts why your unit got sounds while others don't seem to have much trouble with it. I wish this time they will fix your problem for sure. @fishysjj Do burn those recovery DVD if possible as you might need it one day. Backup the drivers on Drive D: then you should be good to go Btw, I'm playing with my new keyboard, Logitech Illuminated... Nice Added on May 14, 2010, 10:00 pm QUOTE(samlee860407 @ May 14 2010, 07:54 PM) my hdd also got problem sometimes, well 3 times to be exact since i purchase it u din send it to sc to check?it was when i was using, then sudenly got sound, vibrating sound, and then my whole pc will hang, and cant move liao. have to restart only can. if it happens again i will be calling for on site warranty liao btw, to fishysjj, i just use install everything from D drive, since it does not include veriface, slide and some other junks, just driver.
