HI To all Sifu over here, I just bought a new Y500 in midvalley Lenovo store, After these few days of testing, found out got some issue, mind to get some advice over here, wish sifu can give me newbie some idea.

1. Once I bootup the laptop, less than 5 min,  I found out is it quite hot, and the fan is keep running as I can hear quite loudly, so I decide to test the temperature and found out the result as attach, is the temperature is normal

[attachmentid=3473594]  hmm.gif
2. Where can I find shop to help me wrap my lcd cover and palm rest cause I found out that the front cover very easy to get scratch

3. how can I create a recovery disc to restore back factory default setting, as I try to use the one recovery found out there is not option to let me create recovery disc
*
u sure u din load ur os or always put the power plan setting to Lenovo Dynamic Graphic via using Lenovo Energy Management?
Ur CPU seems like in the highest frequency....
And also u did upgrade ur Graphic card driver to 320.28?
Try downgrade to 314.22 or if not update yet install the 314.22 also


Well that my stress result for my Y480 with no cooler pad(now only left one CM u series fan and use another box to lift up the laptop a bit), non air-cond room and slightly bad air flow system(just a fan like picture below spinning in my room) condition

Here's the fan I mention earlier, it's the same type but not this brand la:

Hi, may I know what brand of memory you are upgrading? Coz what I know from Lenovo forum that Y480 memory slot runs at 1.35v.
The sodimm from Kingston and Corsair both are 1.5v, will there be any problem?
Thanks ya!
*
Y480 can run both 1.35V and 1.5V RAM
U can use to check ur current RAM voltage via pick it up from the laptop or using CPU-Z

compare the clock speed. which is the faster. More RAM adds the ability to multi-task programs simultaneously, whilst clock speed how fast the system load from the RAM buffer storage. if were you i'd get the 1.8Ghz clock at 8GB. worth more than 16GB 1.6Ghz.
*
Not really, i7-3610/3630 only support up to 1600MHz memory speed
So after u insert more than 1600MHz speed RAM, it will still compatible, just the speed will limit to 1600MHz....

more than 24 hours already, still no reply to my question. Please if anyone has any opinion?   cool2.gif

"would like to know is there anyone here udgraded their warranty to 3 years? i use my lappy everyday, once in uni, once at home - with frequent opening and closing of the lid, would it make the hinge spoil faster? is the 3-yrs warranty worth it?"
*
For the hinge part I think no...
And also 3 years onsite and accidental damage warranty is worth it (for the onsite no need go for service center, just call them, accidental that one is more imba), although I din apply and I dun think now still can apply since bought the lappy almost half year ady..
Anyways if u have some ways to register that 3 years warranty in a half year-bought lappy pm me, I also want to upgrade..lol

#update: just found that we can extend warranty....

My rig is Y480, which used HM76 as well...
So that means if i want to use my msata as my bootdrive AND Cachedrive, i just install my windows 8 and install expresscache on it ?

Dude, HM76 Chipset can't support express Cache...

HM76 cannot support Intel's SSD caching solution.

ExpressCache however is a solution from Condusiv (A.K.A Diskeeper)

Install the OS directly to SSD is still a better solution than ExpressCahce

LOL, well I dun much prefer mSATA than SATA SSD as the HDD location has relativity high temp when idle mode than other part(HDD working temp is 55 degree C, when idle sometimes reach 4X degree C)....
So I install SATA SSD to the HDD part (as it can working in high temp such as 70-75 degree C ), then HDD move to ODD by using HDD caddy bay...
BTW pm ur full name lol, I forgot ur full name ady and as well as fb acc. .... hehe

I do know about that... just troublesome and lazy change... and i have to bundle an external odd too...
From some reliable source tell that ssd probably will dropprice faster than msata in the future due to its high demand..

No need ODD for me anymore coz my source all from internet one...lol
SSD is still cheaper than mSATA la since SSD is still easy install on desktop than mSATA

See the dell website:

"The International Notebook Service is for customers who are traveling with their Commercial notebooks for a period of less than 6 months. Any period of time longer than 6 months requires a Global Tag Transfer to be completed "
But then I click the global tag link, they just pop out bad request

btw too all bro's here, i'm not out to offend anyone. but this is getting frustrating.
Not providing a recovery disc, and not able to create Recovery Disc, is one thing.(at least not that i know of)
and not able to download original ISO online, even if I "BOUGHT" my windows 8 software, I dont own it.

and the change of so many things in windows 8, I would go for win 7 anytime.
asked for it, but got to know this laptop only comes with win8. and no downgrade option available.

and with all the UI changes, it's a step down from windows 7, admit it. at least for laptops / desktop computers, i do not consider it an upgrade.

"not able to download original ISO online"
This one not true, I'm using my downloaded Win 8 Pro ISO and put it into pendrive to install.... lol
Win 8 and Win 7 is a gap...==
