Looks like the new Y510p using NGFF SSD instead of normal sized mSata :3

Owh i see.. thanks a lot for the info!

Here is my Quick Review of the Y410P

Physically, there is nothing much to distinguish this from the Y400. Same keyboard, with the same 3 stage red backlit. Same 1366x768 screen, and to be honest, nothing spectacular, just your standard run of the mill "HD" screen. Same ultrabay design, in this case with the DVDRW. Same thickness, USB port. In fact, aside from the newer sticker, externally, everything is the same as the Y400.

Inside however is another matter. Intel's newer Haswell chip, in this case the i7-4700MQ, 4 cores, 8 threads, Intel HD4600 that is wired for Optimus, NVIDIA 750M (same with the last new Y400), 8GB RAM and a 1TB hard disk all being run by Windows 8.

Good performance? Yep. Recommended to get this over Y400? Yep. Any problem? Nope. Unless you consider the Y400 problematic, in which case probably you should not buy the Y series in the first place.

Bottom Line : Same Thing - Better Engine.

that one i cannot brain..huge different from Y400
RAM, HDD all can upgrade by us..

how about battery life? wanna compared with Y400 Ivy Bridge..

I would say a bit better - but not by much. Just wifi, surfing, some music got close to about 5 - 5 1/2 hours. With really compromised screen brightness at that. Don't think you can expect much - it is a gaming laptop after all.

Just wanna ask to all owners of y400/y500/y410 with Nvidia Geforce GT750M, did u guys updated ur graphics driver? I can't seem to find any drivers for my GC from Nvidia's official website, as well as from using Geforce Experience.. The driver version I currently have is 311.27...

use older drivers as possible and avoid 320.18 drivers. you can select GT650M.

alternatively you can use the one from lenovo site.

G400s gc should be gt720m , not gt740m, amended

avoid 320.18 drivers? Why? is it bad for gt700M series?

oh yeah... thru the lenovo website, which tab should i download from? The video ones?

the highlighted with red colour words are the linky. you can click that.

320.18 drivers have been reported to kill lots of graphics card, or make the computer extremely buggy nor improve performance than older drivers.

what driver version is that?

im not sure as there isnt specific information about the driver.

actually, another alternative is you can use the 320.14 beta drivers for GT740M. reported to works finely under GT750M.

hurmm i'll try from the lenovo main site 1st... if still same version, i will try the beta one

Sorry for spamming~

I tried installing the driver from the red link, turns out it's the same as what i currently have.. version 311.27..

I want to try 320.14 beta, but can anybody else confirm if this is ok or not for GT750M? I'm worried it will mess up my lappy

here, from the users' feedback after installing 320.14b on the GT750M equipped laptop.

I have just bought y500. Do i need to charge the battery for 8 hours for first time? And how to use one recovery to backup using dvd?

Hi guys,
I need some advice. I'm thinking of waiting for either the Y510p SLI GT750M or getting the Y500 SLI G750M.
My question on the Y500. I've asked a few vendors in Penang about the Y500 & they told me it comes with 2 x 4GB RAM 1600MHz. So if I wanted to upgrade to 16GB RAM later, I'd have to buy 2 x 8GB RAM & throw away the 4GB RAM. However, I read in the earlier posts, that the factory installed RAM is actually just a single 8GB RAM. If this is the case, then upgrading to 16GB would be easy & cheap as all I'd need to do is to buy & install another 8GB RAM.
For those of you who have purchased a Y500, could you check if your RAM is a single 8GB RAM or is it 2x4GB RAM?
Thanks

I would like to buy a Y500 (non SLi) within 1 week time. Can any Lenovo reseller PM me? Thanks

y500 is 8GB 1 pcs
