have some done any mod on the cooling system of lenovo y series?
the temps are      when running COD: Advance Warfare.
as high as 104'C CPU & 98'C GPU w/o cooling pad & A.C room.  

my is y400(gt 750m).

still in warranty.
but I did some simple mod on the cooling system.
the temps is lower now.

Y410P is still having Wifi issues on Win 8.1 OS. Drivers don't address the issues with the WPA2 networks.

Doesn't apply to open ones.

That's interesting! So it's would repeat WiFi signals if I use it at places without Ethernet cables?

but nowadays games requires lots of hardisk space... my current SDD is almost full after install COD....

how hard was it to dismantle it?

from instruction manual and youtube video, it seems like it is necessary to dismantle the entire thing
everything at the bottom must dismantle, top part as well

my i7 Y470 is hovering at 60C idle 

my warranty already over liao

would you advise me to attempt repasting myself?
i don't have any experience though

Anyone knows which brand of thermal paste is suitable for Y560? And how to apply it?

anyone bought the new y40-80?

I just bought it 2 weeks ago and wondering what is the normal boot up time?

was told my the sales person cox the windows installed in ssd so boot up time will be very fast. 

After using for 2 weeks my average from turn on power until sign in to home page takes about 1 min and few seconds... only few times about 50 seconds.

Is this consider normal?

my spec i7-5500U 5th gen 2.4ghz, 4gb ram, 1tb hdd + 8gb ssd

ic cox i did some googling .. some did it around 10 sec (not sure their spec) and called lenovo service centre they said win8.1 shouldnt be more than 30 seconds.

weird so far mine always 50-70 seconds. just formatted my laptop still the same result so i guess its normal.

Control panel - power option - already turn on fast start up

go into bios check it is booting from ssd, boot mode: UEFI ... not sure where to enable fast boot from there.

Any Y40-80 4gb ram user?

Hello dear Sifus. Did anyone encounter a problem where the laptop will automatically shut down while gaming? It happens very frequently in Dota 2 but less frequently in games like GTA 4  . Initially I thought it was an overheat issue so I clear out the air vent using a compressed air cannister and removed the bottom cover to clear out dust. The problem still persist and the temperature I assume should be average when gaming (Temperature recorded using Open Hardware Monitor):

Maximum Temperature recorded while playing Dota 2 before laptop crashing
Core 1: 75C
Core 2: 77C
Core 3: 70C
Core 4: 68C
GPU: 65C
HDD: 43C

Temperature recorded minutes after turning on laptop and entering game
Core 1: 65C
Core 2: 67C
Core 3: 59C
Core 4: 60C
GPU: 58C
HDD: 42C

Doesn't seem like an overheat issue to me. Could it be that I have a faulty motherboard/GPU? Bought this laptop for almost a year and half and this issue only came up recently.. The specs are as below:

Laptop model: Lenovo Ideapad Y400
Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz
RAM: 8.00 GB
System type: 64-bit OS, x64-based processor
OS: Windows 8.1 Single Language

Methods I tried:
Checked Integrity of game cache (Dota 2)
Cleared air vent with compressed air cannister
Remove back cover to wipe off dust and from fan
Check fan to ensure fully functional
Constantly using Dust removal feature to maximize fan speed

Sometimes it crashes only minutes after I on my laptop and enter the game, sometimes it takes 40-50 minutes before acting up. Games other than Dota 2 takes a longer time before crashing. Is there any other ways I could try before sending it to a Lenovo shop this weekend? Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated thank you!!!! 

Thank you sifu for your reponse  I had a look up on the lenovo website and it states that I have 2 warranty, 1 started from the date I bought the laptop and lasted for a year (expired), subsequently another warranty that last for additional 2 years from the date of expiry of the 1st warranty (till May 2015). May I know where can I buy a thermal paste? So far there hasn't been any temperature spike, just gradual increase in temperature over time. The power supply as in the power brick? Don't really dare to mess around with the internal parts in case I mess up my laptop Is the VRM and VRAM integrated into the motherboard? I usually game with the battery off to increase the lifespan of the battery, but I tried playing with the battery on and the laptop still crashes as usual

Isn't it normal to remove all non relevant software on a new computer? I do everytime. Same goes for after factory restore.

Dear all,
I'm Using Lenovo Y50-70 (just bought 2 weeks ago), the spec as below:

INTEL® Core™ i7-4710HQ (2.5GHz with up to 3.5GHz, 6M Cache)

Windows 8.1

15.6 UHD IPS(SLIM)

16GB Ram (2*8GBDDRIIIL1600)

512G SSD

NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX860M DDR5 4G

Im facing screen lagging while surfing Google chrome or mozilla, especially scrolling down the facebook page, the video that automatically play is lagging.
Do any1 of u facing the same problem as well? or The software didnt support UHD ?

TQ
