Need gaming laptop for my friend....

badget rm3k-4.5k....

can i get the removeable GPU for this price??

Lenovo Y500 is within your budget

A user on another forum mentioned these drawbacks on y400 and seemed to discourage from buying it. No sure if its a US grey import unit or local set. But the user brought up some points including:

- touchpad issues
this is a known issue on some models so I'm not surprised

- Wifi card can only connect to B/G and not N
- WIFI drops connection anytime it wants. you have to reboot whole system to get it working and trust me the reboot is freaking slow.

It would be surprising that the Y400/500 doesn't support 802.11n. Anyone able to dispel this? However I think some users on this forum also have mentioned about the WIFI performance and some other have suggested that it could be the Internet Security/Antivirus issue thats affecting the WIFI (specifically the bundled McAfee Antivirus)

- Practically no support from Lenovo No automatic driver updater etc.
Is this true?

- USB 3.0 only at 1/2 speed (must do alot of things to finally enable it)
- USB always-on port doesn't work as advertised and on the go. (again must jump through alot of hoops to get it working)

Has anyone encountered this as well?

nah..i just wondering later on the future would love to add more power to the machine.customizing it like alienware or Msi ..what i tot is the second gpu will act as a gaming gpu..integrated gpu just for the machine when turning on..not using SLi technology..

seriously..!!??
any Y400 owner can clarify these issues?? pleaseee~
i'm thinking to buy Y400 this month

yea...plss clarify this..if yes...find next target..

oh, no..since many users said US set got problem with warranty, i don't want to take a risk..planning to buy from hikari85 coz i want to bundle with removable fan too

buy online right? as hikari at penang

yes, buy online..i'm not worried since hikari85 is a reputable seller here
he offer me rm2699 with 8gb 1600mhz RAM (free additional 4gb)..also i can't find any seller that sell Y400 Ultrabay fan except hikari85

I'm a Lenovo Y400 user..its performing well until now...Malaysia set i guess, not US

but windows 8 kinda annoying like fck....windows 7 a hell lot better.

so, Malaysia set does not encounter any of those problem?
can you explain which/what is annoying about windows 8 (from your opinion)

Windows 8 is the most AWESOME windows OS...for people that do live usb, tripple booting, old computer......it will make your computer blazingly fast.....but thank to god....i now can get windows 8/7 cheaper...so if dont like windows 8..buy win7....

Planning buy y400 for my cousin, any recommend seller in pj? :-)

Wowo, really that price? any hidden charged? price for ram is damn high now

yup, true..you can ask seller for new promotion..search for hikari85..but hikari85 stayed at penang, so only can deal through postage

I not realy trust postage, if lost parcel how? , if that seller offer insurance cover? U know my cousin har earn money, if lost i die
