Any official news that when will this be released?

why lenovo y400 is more expensive than y500?
i'm planning to buy y400 if y500 come with hd only.

chat with lenovo malaysia on FB. they don't have any information regarding the availability of this model in malaysia YET. however they do mention that some reseller already imported the item from overseas thus making it available on local market.

more waiting time for me i guess... damn it lenovo. at least release it to the pc magazine/online for people to review it first. the feeling of waiting is like able to watch waifu but unable to touch her for 6month.

Both.
Where can you get a laptop with a performance of a GT675M(looking at the 3DMark11 results) that cost only RM3799?
That's about RM800 differences, which is only 27% more expensive for an increased of 70 to 80 percent gaming performance.
Some more, that price were told to include extra 170w adapter.
Most importantly is that you don't have to sacrifice the weight when you want to take it out outside to work or school by taking out the extra GPU and use back the default 120w adapter(same as the Y580).
They both(Y580 vs Y500) weight about the same on stock(without the extra GPU).

I would recommend those looking for a cheap gaming laptop to wait for the release.
Also, if possible, wait until there's a review of it, just to make sure there's no issue with this laptop.

still waiting for local review. kamoun guise! 

More photos! sorry about the quality 


I've never run any benchmark before, let me know if I'm doing it wrong k! 

GPU-Z


CPU-Z


3D Mark 11


btw the latest Nvidia driver doesn't support 650M SLI, and it says I need to download the package from manufacturer (lenovo) itself, which is the same driver that comes with the machine.

i can't upload the the image bcoz too large 3.07mb 
u2 enough ma ,ok thanks, but where the wire ventilation area on it?
8gb i think minimum if u want to play game
i have 12gb ram

guys!!i need ur opinion
on idle test with speedfan
gpu : 39-41c
hd0 : 39-42c
core 0 : 49-54c
core 1 : 40-50c
core 2 : 40-50c
core 3 : 40-50c
gpu : 39-42c
is it ok o not?

is 4 gig ram is enough for gaming? and also if you're doing daily use like opening multiple tabs in windows 8? or better upgrade it to 8? or 16?

agreed. 4gb is suffient. but if you have extra cash, 8gb/16gb why not?

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! 

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 =/

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. 

lenovo y400 no full hd oh

the unit has ready since pc fair last week 

golden rules, some item should priority be reveal  on PC fair. ...
