index score with sli ..any idea on how to increase the graphic perfomance?


although the cooling syst on top, but i still eager to make it more cooler
so, i put the cooler notepal u2 n tested on idle for about 20 minutes
the temp slightly affect or not at all
anyone know why?

i think that it maybe the fans of the cooler pad is not strong...
Try U3 or SF19 see how its goes on...

Put in external power source for constant power

I only have 4Gig but gaming experience for me its the best so far, it meets my requirement therefore I won't upgrade to 8Gig. Too be honest I prefer the overall feeling of the y500 than playing on my friend's Razer Blade, call me weird but its true.

My palm doesn't feel much heat (Blade have a focus heat spot, which annoys me) and jumping from keys to keys is pretty at ease (hardly pushed the wrong key)

I brought my machine to chill out at a nearby Starbucks, last about 2 hrs 45 mins with continuous gaming (DOTA2, GW2 in max setting, battery 'high performance' profile.

and 1 more thing, it make head turns!

Good to know that you are enjoying your notebook man~
And thanks for the reviews

People are attracted by the cool backlit keyboard i guess.

Btw, what is the colour of the backlight of the keyboard?
Is it red backlight?

Most welcome! Grad the review helps

Yes it is the irresistible Red colour

It looks badass, before that i thought it was red keyboard + white backlight.

i have 12gb of ram..it's worth for me especially when running multi apps together
yesterday i had transf file 220gb to my ext hdd and at the same time downloading torrent and open some web on google.
no lack and smooth
so total memory if i'm not wrong more than 4gb

so i think depend on user la

Its Win8-64? then I might add more Ram =D

Aih why no blu-ray drive =/

Are you sure it exceeded 4GB?

My Dell Studio is 4GB RAM.

Run iTunes, download update for War Z, surfing web and McAfee running background scan, after 15 minutes, laptop freeze.

^ and.. what is the relation to this thread?

And don't forget the quality of the AUDIO!

S.U.P.E.R.B.

Straight away unplugged my speakers and put them away in boxes.

but how is it if you compare it with macbook keyboard?

Since Y500 utilise ultrabay, it means owner could easily buy a ultrabay Bluray from Lenovo and swap in later when you have more money

I will still pick the y500.

Although both y500 and mac keyboards looks the same, the reason is because y500 keys are curved into the middle (if you look carefully at the pics) that fits in perfectly to your fingers during compression while mac keys are flat so it kinda feel a bit rigid and dull.

hohoho, what a review. cant wait to get my own machine. thanks for the review man

No way I'm going to spend the money on a Blu-ray ultrabay
