Hai bro, can pm me how much and where you bought the W7 HP OEM Builder Pack?
Will appreciate a lot as im going to get this lappy soon

I see.
Thanks a lot

For heavy gaming purpose and budget of around 3k, should i go for y580 or the upcoming y500?

Wow, that' expensive!!
Wonder how much will it sell here?

The upcoming white colour y580 has no spec difference with the current black one right?

Im waiting for it too.
Hope the price will be same as grey color currently

How does this Corsair Vengence ram performs compared to the stock ram?
Any significant improvement?

Me too am searching for white one but until now still found nothing.

Just got my Win8 Y580, plz add me to the user list.
Btw, take me a while to get used to Win8. quite confusing for me.

Nope, mine is the normal metal grey color same as current win7 version.
Rumours of white color y580 is confirmed to be false.

Not even any single description about the white color version can be found on Lenovo official website.
I wonder where the dealers get the info from.

After get used to Win8, i find it is more fun compared to Win7, not a bad revolution from Microsoft

Sent an e-mail to Lenovo CS regarding warranty period and got their reply
They will update my warranty to 2 years

What is your budget?
Y580 can supports up to 16gb ram in win8 pro

Some update here, important notice!!!!

I got my y580 Win8 version, and i just found out it is a "Single Language Version"!!!
This version is just like a Win7 Home Basic, not the Win8 Pro version!!

The worse thing is, this so called Win8 Single Language Version is NOT ENTITLED to upgrade to Win8 Pro version at the promotion price of RM50!!

People who plan to get y580 currently should look for win7 HB version instead of win8 version if you want to get Win8 Pro at RM50!!

I think win7 HB version of y580 will slowly replaced by win8 SL in the market, so those who plan to get a y580, act fast!!

Both y580 and g55 fit in your budget.
My suggest would be get y580, use the rest money to upgrade the ram and get a ssd as well to boost the performance, and upgrade to 3 years warranty.
Then it should works like beast.

You can reduce the heats by replace the hdd with a ssd and using the cooler master notepal u3.
The hdd can either put in odd(with caddy bay) or as an external hdd.

And the fan is not noisy at all.

Never use g55, so can't comment about it.

Since i only using y580 as my personal gaming rig(working purpose i have another laptop), so Win8 not Win8 Pro is ok for me.

Just to info those who plan to get Win8 Pro at promotional price, you should get a win7hb version instead.
