MSI AB has the slider thingy right..? Just slide a lil bit... Let's say, 10MHz more on intervals until you're happy with how it performs... Don't go all the way up otherwise you'll suffer from throttling (Have not experienced this yet on the Y500, but the old M15x throttles like mad).

Yeap, just install and play...

LOL, only like that ah??
which one can change? core clock or memory clock or both.?

i give u help on that one, we use google for help

I usually do both...

If you don't unlock your BIOS, only limited till +135 Mhz clocks and unable to overclock the ultrabay GPU :3
Unless you have .bat files for nvidia inspector to bypass this limit (troublesome)

8gb you are limited later when you run alot apps. so will lag too.
im on x64 bits.

so 8gb with 64x = just okok. so need another 16 to smooth juice.

added a ssd too.

So.... Not a must if I'm not a heavy multitasker lah~?

yeah. But ssd is good. ram just extra extreme

Tot of adding for 32 gb RAM but dont have

Prolly gonna get myself the mSATA for the boot partition in the future...
High capacity SSDs still cost a bomb atm.

Hi, anyone know what happen to my Y400?

I just bought less than a month but already see this BSOD 2 times.

I added a stick of 8GB RAM inside at day one.

The first BSOD time is day one I using this laptop, then second time is
today.

I didn't do any BIOS change or something else, just normal use.

i found this error at microsoft website : -

Could it be your ram?

Just suggesting

Ur RAM model?
I think mostly the problem is on ur RAM....

Guys and girls, the Y500 version that I have didn't come with msata. Has anybody here got the same thing and successfully upgraded the Lenovo with the msata SSD, either as a separate drive or accelerating the slower hard drive?

I just upgrade mine Y500 with msata and SSD. Y500 got 2 port msata. 1 inside and another one beside the port of ultrabay. Malaysia set doesn't come with msata.

Hmm. Well, I am looking to upgrade the MSATA inside the laptop anyway. Just need to check whether the msata is wired properly or if this is just some for show only.

are you sure? Did not see that when I took the back cover off. Guess I'm gonna open the back cover again.
