The Y580 is 2 years warranty right? Why the website say only August 2013?

Currently my laptop not with me, so couldn't show the screenshot.
But I did monitoring my ssd temperature since I install it.
During idle it is around 47 celcius, and reached maximum of 59 celcius when I gaming.
This is not normal right?
*
SSD can up to 70 celcius

Off topic: now I working at one computer shop named Axaxhi, well not a good job.... sweat.gif
The sales person there is just for "sell" instead of explain the real function of that thing, and also they are typical "more vRAM=more powerful GPU" salesperson..... ==
And also the technician there got a bit arrogant, they dunno how to format a 2TB HDD, then I mention the keyword to them(GPT partiotion) and one of them start "beh song"(hokkien, sound like not like) me liao.... rclxub.gif

Haha, the usual politics you will face in every work field... Some people just work for the money without any interest or passion or even feeling responsible for it, while sometimes you're just trying to help with the problem, they see you as trying to show off... doh.gif Just treat this as a mental training for you, this would be very beneficial for you in future and all this experience will help you to come out with counter-measure against their funny intention... thumbup.gif

No matter what, as long as you working with humans, you might/will meet with a lot of "Small people" trying to pull your leg... that's the sad truth in real life, the only difference is that how you treat people... icon_rolleyes.gif Anyway, how much you get for your SSD? New or second hand? Heard that Intel even came up with 60GB for their 520 series...

Tried Far Cry III with Y500. Only one GPU running. No support at the moment, but was able to use both gpu's via Nvidia Inspector. Still, framerate not too good.... Haven't tried AC3, but pretty sure no problems in running Crysis 2....
*
Far Cry III is AMD-powered game, so sure it will less support in NVIDIA GPU

Just do some testing in case i got any DOA item... cry.gif
[attachmentid=3225272]
Seems that the performance got capped by the SATA2 port that I'm using, will have to wait till my Y580 comes then only can test for the true performance... brows.gif

Use ATTO disk benchmark is more accurate bro.... brows.gif
