QUOTE(davidmak @ Aug 21 2012, 10:37 AM) The new processor i7-3630QM only offers 100MHz more in base clock and 100MHz more in turbo boost. Not sure about the TDP yet but it'll be mostly the same. Frankly speaking, if all things equal (believe its the same chip, just clock higher), I'd rather have a cool and efficient chip. i thinking the keyboard will feel some warm right? Nope. On my Y580, 1 hour of MW3 gaming the GTX 660M GPU only recorded max temperature of 68 Deg C while the CPU recorded max temperature of 67-70 Deg C. No cooler but in air conditioned room set to ambient 20 Deg C. Added on August 21, 2012, 8:17 pmi will get my y580 next week This post has been edited by xD4rever: Aug 21 2012, 08:17 PM |

Added on August 21, 2012, 8:28 pm pretty sure it wont void warranty [/quote] I had pmed Devour , he told me that upgrading the HDD will void the warranty... [/quote] If u keep ur default HDD, when ur laptop got problem u install back the HDD then warranty problem solve, some dealer just don't want other ppl change the stuff themselves(or can say if u want to change stuff go to they, so that they can earn money) |

QUOTE(and85rew @ Aug 21 2012, 09:37 PM) Friends, i just got my Y580, so my question is Its optional but recommended. The recovery disk is to enable you to restore the partitions for restoring to factory image/defaults when you install a new HDD/SSD. 1. Do I have to make revovery disk? 2. How to split the drive C into 2..it seems it cant be done using disk management For splitting C drive, it appears the Lenovo already created 4 partitions on it. Due to the MBR limitations, we can only have up to 4 partitions. |

haha~ very funny lol xD
actually is very simple, if buyer ask seller, surely some seller will said u may upgrade as much things as u can , so they could earn you more..,some seller upgrade to 16gb ram while the OS ( window home basic ) could only support 8gb max. but why would i told buyer not encourage to do ? 1) we assume not all buyer are Pro, some buyer even break something in the process, would not be covered. Example, yanking the pins off the connector, breaking/bending the clip on the RAM slots, electrostatic shock damage 2) i have met some buyer, miss place and lost his hdd, =) when the time their laptop have problem , they ask me to help, so .... - if u pretty confident you will not facing above. then you should go for it.
