Try replace the intel driver, I found out that Intel display audio could not detect automatically in the default driver so I update It to the Intel official latest driver... And also the scale u need to adjust by urself.....

Hey guys,
My Y580 is running slower when not charging. Like when im not charging the game will feel more laggy than when i'm charging. Anyone having this problem ?
Windows 8 .
I think the lenovo battery saver is the cause.
any advise ?
Thanks

Well the Lenovo Dynamic Graphic is the Kepler GPU boost function enabled plan, even though u din open it u also can play ur game, but open it ur GPU will be boost to 885MHz(GPU and Shader clock) instead of 745MHz(GPU and Shader clock)

But this one quite common wor. My previous machine is Dell Studio 14 also like that. Lags when not charging. Very very lag. BTW, why nobody can give advice? I wanna change Blu Ray drive but can it play those P disc? This post has been edited by guilt79: Dec 9 2012, 03:00 PM

I have the same problem... already on High Performance profile but the real performance only comes after I plugged in the AC... so I just leave it plugged in and take out the battery...

Probably can try later when I'm back at home...

BTW don't even try to play heavy game(like NFS Most Wanted 2012 etc) when using battery...  Our battery cannot give such like huge output power like power adapter
