Well i finally get myself a Y480 with 750GB HDD,running window 7 home premium,GPU is GT640M LE GDDR5..(kinda dissapointed) XD but to confirm with you guys,there is a few model of this with different GPU right?I heard the latest is with 500GB HDD,GPU is GT650M GDDR5 right? Also last question,when i use my y480 to play game on battery pack,why does it lag so much? I mean when its on battery it using the intel HD GPU right?How can i make it to use the nvidia even on battery?  rclxub.gif Pardon me,if its too long..its my first post here anyway..
*
Bro, you just got your laptop?
If can, go and ask for exchange to the y480 with gt650m.
The gt640m le is an old model and already eol long time ago.
gt650m is far more powerful than the gt640m le.

Will try research on the Option 1 as I have already tried on getting the key from the Option 3 but when i tried to download the ISO, the Win8 ISO Download software says that "This product key cannot be used to install retail version of Windows 8"... rclxub.gif

Have you installed the driver?
You can still use it in Win8 but there will no on screen notification when you switch between modes each time.

Any Y580 users playing Sleeping Dogs? When you guys run the in game benchmark, does it show running on Intel Hd4000 instead of GTX660M? Mine does though. However, under the Nvidia GPU usage it states that they are running Sleeping Dogs. Confusing...
*
I'm sure Sleeping Dogs is running under GTX660M.
Don't think so Intel HD4000 can handle such graphic intensive game.

Just tested my Y580 with the bottom cover removed and put on the cooler.
HDD idle 39c.
GPU idle 42c.
CPU idle 42-50c.

When playing games (tested with World of Tanks on High settings)
HDD load 44c.
GPU load 61c.
CPU load 58-61c.

Well....not bad,hmmm...

You remove the full cover?

and the graphic also like there are flashing pixel randomly?artifacts problem?
how to solve this?

*
Try some other game.
If the problem still occurs, maybe the GPU is spoilt.
Then go for an exchange.

Everywhere you can get a ram.
Just make sure it is a 1600mhz instead of 1333mhz.

Hi, i am a Y480 owner. Can i run Far Cry 3 with my 295.93 driver? I tried updating it to 310.90, but most of my game will have lag spikes while playing. So i am just asking that can i run Far Cry 3 with the preinstalled 295.93? smile.gif

Try to clean install the latest driver, some old driver leftovers may affect the game performance.
