I've checked Lenovo website, no one touch support yet... IINM they mentioned you will lost the support the keys once you upgrade to Win8 for Y500...You can still use it in Win8 but there will no on screen notification when you switch between modes each time. but, it should be supported now since it's already included in official spec right?... anybody knows?? |

QUOTE(Lacersan @ Jan 2 2013, 11:55 AM) What's the difference with local and overseas? Only warranty? 1) local set has 2 years warranty as opposed to 1 year.2) possible warranty service screwed up due to none affiliated distributor (unsure since they claim its international warranty) 3) oversea set use US electrical plug, so need converter to be used here in malaysia 4) Different spec. I've seen sub rm2500 y580 but only in 1366x768 res, not Full HD. |

It seems like the lenovo had set to throttle down the CPU speed to 2.4ghz after reaching 90C, attached is the testing using throttlestop to maintain the speed after 90C and max the CPU temp reach 98C without cooler.
