lol... Pay 7 bucks for postage and then forced to self-collect again....
U kasi bom Pos M'sia kao kao on the phone for not delivering.

Got it from the car accessories shop.
But there's plenty around in Automotive Garage as well.

Yeah, I noob about that.

Very...
and let's share on what we did to our comps.
Any physical/softmods are welcome as well.

Hey guys...

I started up my laptop as usual this morning and came to realise that the speakers are not producing any sound at all... Plugged in my headset and there's sound coming out but the speakers are not.

Speakers dead..? What gives~? Common issue or...???

Edit : Nevermind, reinstalled audio driver and gave the speaker a good whacking and it's back to normal again... Phew~

Comodo..!!!

Bagus kan..?

Mine's macam AP set punya.

Reinstall driver only.

How much you're willing to let it go..?

Wanna check on the price.

1. Cyberclean gel
2. Wet napkin
3. Fingernail + wet tissue

Bangga la u...

Huh..?

Nah, the old one with 650m...
So far never reached beyond 80'C yet... On average it's usually around 6x-ish with extended gameplay reaching 7x-ish...

1. Depends on how you treat it... My old Acer junk still working since '08. My AW died after serving me since '09 a month back, hence my decision to acquire the Y500 in the first place.

2. Casual gamer..? Define your level of 'casual' as I know of some friends who are casual gamers as well but they emphasise on either the visual aspect or the game or just the fun of it. So sorry there mate, hard to pinpoint casual from my POV here.

3. Personally I don't see the point of touchscreen on lappies. Sure, it's nice to have but it's NOT exactly a necessity. It's obviously needed on tabs and little slabs we call as smartphones but on a laptop..? Nah, we already have a physical keyboard and external mouse for gaming already.

4. You can't go wrong with the Y400 with that budget of yours.

5. Heck, I don't even find my Y500 to be bulky at all. It's a major improvement from my old M15x which was a friggin' block of mass.

6. I know Y has it, others I've yet to look on.

7. Depends on your personal preference. Some like it small and compact, some like it big. Keep in mind that bigger screen tend to put a little more load on your GPU as it'll have to cover the pixel real estate. But with today's standards of the GPU, it's not really that noticeable.

tldr : Your own cash, go "test drive" some demo units before deciding.

Edit : Grammar and spacing.

Everyone seems moody with the weather around me these days... and I feel woozy lately too...

Well, don't expect it to run Crysis 3 with everything maxed out but Crysis (original one) looked neat with everything turned to the highest possible setting.

Cyberclean and wet tissue.

Burned..? I OC-ed my old M15x (mind you that lappy runs way hotter than my current Y500) for 4 years and it runs fine. GPU's still healthy some more with me leaving it on 24/7...

Touchpad = Nah, I use mouse all the time anyway.

WiFi = Dunno... Normal only... I use cable some time.

Dunno lor... My old M15x macam crap nia the touchpad... Unresponsive, no multitouch and sluggish.
Maybe I'm not "pro" enough to judge the current touchpad.

Ah, so that's what you mean...
I thought you meant by the responsiveness...

Oh...
Well, can't say for responsiveness as I feel that it's quite okay for me... The AW one needs more pressure for it to detect my swipes~

4 years liao... Lazy renew warranty just for fried mobo.
Sammore antiquated specs cannot compete with this Y500 yo.
