HDMI output must be from the ATi drivers itself iinm..

That's how it works on my system with Nvidia Graphics.. If not there will be no sound through HDMI output..

Some of the owners here have Seagate HDD including me but I've read other forum owners  are having Hitachi HDD so not sure if it's a bad HDD or really blame on the HDD compartment for not sound proof enough.

Well i have a seagate and im not sure why.. It is quite noisy.. especially heavy hdd load.. lol tick tick tick..

So got myself a WD Scorpio Blue 500GB 5.4krpm and put the seagate into a external enclosure SATA>USB2.0 smile.gif

WD Scorpio Silent as ever tongue.gif

hi guys i want to know some infos abt y460 with i5 540+5650

whats the total weight of the laptop inc battery?

hows the build quality?

how hot does it get when u game in it or watch 1080p mkvs in it?

is it very heavy compared to acer 3820tg? i am thinking of importing one or getting this y460

can u guys plz run either furmark or unigine heaven 2 bench to measure peak temps of cpu and gpu?

also can u post gpuz of the gc is it downclocked?

hows the hardwareacceleration performance when u watch 1080p vids like in mkv or youtube whats the cpu percentage?

3820tg is less than 2kg.. while lenovo y460 is about 2.2kg.. maybe not much difference..
