Hi all sifu,
Actually I'm in delima to choose between Y500 and Y580.
I'm gonna use the laptop primary for work assignments ie. 3Ds Max, heavy photoshop, sketchup, autocad n 3d rendering.
So, i want to ask which one is worth to buy. I know both of the model is awesome n both of the models are within my budget.
Thanks in advance.

QUOTE(ytlay @ Jan 28 2013, 08:35 PM) Y500 with SLI only results performance boost in gaming and not with your above work assignment. Get the cheaper Y580@2999 with longer battery life and better single gpu will help to speed up your work assignment. Use the remaining money for SSD to speed up system response, get a u3 cooler and upgrade to 3 yrs on-site warranty.  Really? Hmmm. But I'm so attracted with Y500 SLI. Hahaha I heard Y580 is already EOL? Is it true?
