Hi guys..
can you please tell me whats the difference between these two ?
Y480(5934-7549), i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT650M (GDDR5) @RM2599 [JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, freeDOS, 2 yrs warranty, P950 headset
Y480(5934-1372), i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2699[JBL], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, W7HB, 2 years international warranty
3430QM ? 3610QM ? GT650M ? GT650 ? freeDOS ? W7HB ??
I have no idea what's the difference.
Thanks

QUOTE(chopin @ Sep 21 2012, 08:41 PM) ok, 3430QM is the newer i7 processor that's a bit faster than 3610QM - but not really much. GT650M - it is the Nvidia graphics card used - very good for gaming even though not the best. not sure abt GT650 - u sure u wrote it correctly? freeDOS - the unit will come without any OS - u have to buy and install windows yourself. W7HB - Windows 7 Home Basic Edition. i'd say, both units are pretty ok (and I own the 1st one, just without the p950 free gift). Uhm im not that sure where did i write wrong or not because i copied it from here http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2026498and btw , in comparison which is better for gaming wise ? i mean which graphic card is better ? thanks |

QUOTE(sss2sssss @ Nov 30 2012, 10:18 PM) As my Y480 can run well in black ops 2 at all maximum graphic setting+4xTXAA+medium shadow+1366x768 and Need for speed most wanted 2012 with all maximum graphic setting+1366x768, I'm sure hitman absolution can run well since it does no eat too much gpu resource hi. is it advisable to upgrade it to 8gb ram other than the regular 4gb ? |

QUOTE(chopin @ Dec 1 2012, 09:11 AM) 3 questions: 1) is your 4gb ram now sufficient for your usage? if your are not heavily multitasking, then 4gb should be enuf. I have 8gb on my y480, but normally the RAM usage is not more than 30%. 2) do you have extra cash and don't mind spending another rm80-90? if yes, then get 8gb la, since ram is so cheap now. or else, just use 4gb until you feel the need to upgrade. 3) have u considered SSD? it will speed up your com better than extra ram.
Added on December 1, 2012, 9:31 amhi, any improvement over the last one on win7 (y480)? Hi bro. May i ask what is SSD ? Im not very good with comp specs.. =( |

QUOTE(tennytyy @ Dec 3 2012, 07:05 PM) Where you register your laptop to get the promotion? QUOTE(maxan @ Dec 3 2012, 09:57 PM) Bought it at the 2nd floor (D MOBILE COMPUTER SDN BHD) Got the machine at 4th floor (PC3 Technology S/B) I've asked them to do it for me but they tried to scam me and tell me that Win7 Home basic is not eligible for the offer but I told them i've already contacted Microsoft and they clearly says that Win7 Home basic is eligible for it. Then they offered to give me a new unused genuine win8 pro upgrade. So i waiting there for hours for the upgrade and it FAILED ! They wanted me to go there again tomorrow saying that they'll format my pc then upgrade or if it still fails they will do a clean installation. will update tomorrow. |

Lenovo drivers is not yet fully compatible with Win 8 and some features will be gone if you upgraded to Win 8 such as On Screen Display, One Key Recovery, some other stuff . |
