Let us know the performance too as mine was experiencing black/flicker/BSOD screen using the latest driver. Had to revert back to 310.90. sad.gif

You can easily google those tests... for memtest86, you can grab it from www.memtest.org... but for S.M.A.R.T test, i dont have any to give you... you can google any smart reader... I rarely use it (really rare, last I used is like 2 or 3 years ago?)
I dont even want to try... on full beauty, I heard even GTX680 is struggling... laugh.gif

but I think, can run on 720p with medium settings... tongue.gif

I heard there's a lot of problem on the new nVidia driver? Is it related to SLi? coz I haven't faced any problems yet but I haven't run any games on latest driver yet...

Facing stop working in DMC 5, now revert back to 310.90 ady...

I dont know about the one that's packaged with the laptop, but I have bad experiences with McAfee on my work laptop (and IT don't give us the permission to terminate them for security issues). McAfee does mess with network config multiple times with me and it's common problem faced by everyone all around the world (imagine you cannot ping to localhost/127.0.0.1)

so, even if they give McAfee to me lifetime service with McAfee for free, I won't care much about it... I'll live without antivirus...

Now I live with Windows Defender in Win 8 only... tongue.gif

BTW if we send the laptop to service center, we need to bring purchase receipt as well or just bring the laptop?
Asus is refer to the bar code on back side of laptop, so no need receipt.
Lenovo also refer to the Serial number on back side of laptop as well? Coz the receipt is on my father's hand, and I'm at outstation study.... @@

PS: I ady register my laptop at the Lenovo website

no need to bring receipt, they check online for the warranty, but just prepare the receipt for double safety
i sent my Y580 before and took 3 days for exchange~

stress test only done in windows level to check your hardware stability ,

i've done it at my friend repair center shop using his terminal and other stuff too(very technical level), and of course i do it after found out something wrong with my laptop to make sure before i sent it for warranty.
*
So which service center u sent to?
Coz I cannot left it in service center for long time since I still got many works need to do.... laugh.gif

do you have an external monitor? my bro used that because his monitor also died during his exams(why so same like your case one? sweat.gif)

i mean, it might take just three days, but no guarantee =/
external monitor is a safer bet imo.

If I'm not using external monitor, how can I reply u? lol
