QUOTE(Cobby @ Dec 27 2012, 11:28 PM)  I think the port runs on SATA3... btw, is ur windows installed on it? or is it just a separate drive u can access? Added on December 27, 2012, 11:29 pm Download from Microsoft site. I wouldnt recommend upgrade from 7... a clean installation for Win8 would be better. Look for Win8 ISO.  ps: because it looks like i need to download an upgrade assistant.. n den only proceed from there..  This post has been edited by ndragon: Dec 28 2012, 12:06 AM |

QUOTE(mrl @ Dec 29 2012, 12:40 PM) actually, retail is the one that not comes with the laptop... you buy it seperately, standalone Win8 not together with any system... that's retail licensed version... my graphic performance was 7.2 on win7.. n ssd was 7.9...previously, the one that comes with the system is OEM licensed... if you buy a laptop and get Windows, that Windows is under OEM license... Added on December 29, 2012, 12:42 pm Win7 uses 7.9 scale while Win8 is 9.9 scale (is it? or it's 8.9?) that's why the rating is different... or so I believed...  in win 8.. my graphic is now 6.8.. n ssd is 8.1.. so i also dunno where is the equivalence between win7 n 8... n win 8 is 9.9 scale.. hehe QUOTE(tennytyy @ Dec 29 2012, 01:02 PM) Win8 y580 user here, the score for both the graphics is 6.8 for mine, same as yours so no problem in my win8 installation.. just want to confirm that.. thanks.. |

And there is a new year promo going on now so should I buy from there or buy from Malaysia ? What about the warranty and stuff if I buy from us ? Pls help tq ! if after conversion its cheaper in US then u should buy from US.. cuz lenovo's warranty is international ma..QUOTE(izaydi @ Dec 30 2012, 04:43 PM) y400 user reporting in!:D 1st y400 user!... gratz~ |
