I've tried out the Lenovo Y500 this afternoon.

The keyboard is soft, good to type on, much better than Y580, though I'm not sure if it smoothens with excessive use, as in the key alphabets fade off easier, and if there is a replacement for the keys.

Screen, FHD, though I did not look closely to tell the difference with Y580 and Y400.

Ram, it seems that the original set comes with 4GB. Is that so,  i mean for a laptop of that specs? Means i would need a few hundred more for an upgrade to 8gb or even 12gb.

2 yr warranty, which means i would need to top up a few more hundreds for an extra year warranty.

Graphic card, Dual Nvdia GT650M, 1 built in and 1 more mounted on ultrabay slot. It seems that Y580 only has 1 Nvdia and the other 1 is intel graphic card.

Hard disc, Sata 500gb. To upgrade to SSD would be RM 200 for 120gb, which I doubt if its even enough for normal usage.

Outlook and built, simply stunning.

And No, Autocad does not support SLI. According to experts, it does not even accesses the GPU, but rather the processor itself, which I find it weird.

Yes, like I said, Autocad only draws its juice from the CPU and does not go through the GPU. So its kinda redundant for me to get a laptop that emphasizes on GPU. Will have to reconsider my options given that its not necessary for me to max out my GPU power. I would rather channel my money to processor, RAM, SSD and monitor instead.
