How is that possible? 798Mhz = 1600Mhz??  rclxub.gif

"DDR stands for Double Data Rate. SO any DDR3 (and DDR2) rating is double the actual speed. So ram running 800MHz is running DDR3 1600. Notice the ram specs only say DDR3 1600 without MHz at the end."

Copy from someone....lol

w7 = rm269?

the RM269 is upgrade the warranty to 3years onsite warranty.

so far the seller quite helpfull and fast reply through whatsapp on explaining bout the warranty and any info regarding the unit u need to know... and he send his staff to deliver to your door steps...

BTW, actually I found that Windows Index Score does not use NVIDIA GPU to render Gaming Graphic and Graphic score if we use either 304.48 or 304.79 Beta driver...sweat.gif
Hope NVIDIA can be faster release WHQL driver for our GPU(of course bug-free)

I got U2 for my Y480, it's 4 fans(default 2 fans, I added two more fans)
U2 is fit for Y480, but if u wanna ensure every vents got one fan(Y480 got 3 vents, one is at processor, two is at RAM) u may need to move upside a bit and remove the rubber upside the cooler pad....
If u wanna perfect cooling, u can go for U3, although is big but u can move any fans without any problem...


Added on August 10, 2012, 5:01 pmAnd also if ur backpack is big enough, it can fit U3...


Added on August 10, 2012, 5:06 pmWhat I mean for rubber is these two rubber
user posted image
Actually U can just remove left hand side one, but seems legit so remove two, if not remove and u move up, it will block ur processor vent...

then GG for U3, now even my backpack if wanna put U2 inside also is a problem(although my backpack can fit 15" laptop...), so I din bring my U2 back to my hometown
U need it, is for HDD cooling...lol
other part does not any cooling, the way I bought U2 is need to speedup the air flow, so HDD can maintain at 44 when idle, now without cooler HDD maintain at 49(BTW I got play game before and although got shut down also let it rest for a while and start ot back)...sweat.gif

i just found out that y480 is 13.5inch wide while u2 is 13.6 inch... sweat.gif

Seriously...i think so too...gg for u3 for being so big..


the prices for u2 and u3 same for all ALL IT store? hmm.gif then i might consider not buying the cooler in bulk with the seller since she sell 65/85...
Plus i can go try out the size of the laptop on the cooler..


Anyway,anybody with y480 with either u2/u3 can post the pics here to share? rclxms.gif

thx for the answer....

just a side note, currently there are a few active threads on Leno Y480/Y580, a bit distracting as some of us might have to post the same questions repeatedly on all of them...

why don't someone start an owners' club, let everyone concentrate on it so no one will miss out any related post?
