Excuse me, I would like to ask that will the warranty void if I upgrade my Y510P ram at the local reseller store? And how much is the different between 16GB ram vs 8GB ram? Currently using stock 8GB ram but plan to upgrade to 16GB ram, is it worth for the money?
*
Upgrade RAM will not void warranty if u know how to DIY and dont break anything.
8GB is more than enough unless u ve special needs for 16GB. Its better to get a SSD to boost performance. smile.gif

Ermhhh not very nice laa my score bcoz if u check at google it should score more than 5k lor haha btw im still proud with it haha.. cool2.gif

Let me share my experience, my y510p cannot compatible with y500 gpu even it GT750M..im already try it and got reseller told me that their customer don't have the problem when using y500 gpu so im not really sure about this either y510p can use or not the y500 gpu..

Now im using y510p ultrabay gpu and it's work perfect..thought my laptop problem lor when it cannot detect the y500 gpu last time..haha sgt takut maa.. sweat.gif
*
Thanks for sharing ur experience. notworthy.gif
Y510p/GT750m cant detect Y500 ultrabay gpu(GT750m) probably due to vbios.
That means Y510p/GT750m and Y500/GT750m need to use different ultrabay gpu(GT750m). rclxub.gif

So, for those who wish to add the ultrabay gpu, remember to check the compatibility of the ultrabay gpu GT750m with ur laptop (y510p/Y500). icon_rolleyes.gif

Hmm, what you mean is swap my 1TB HDD to SSD? I am a IT newbie and I don't know how to DIY it.  rclxub.gif

Get a normal 2.5" SATA SSD and suitable 9.5mm HDD caddy bay for Y510p/Y410p. smile.gif
- replace HDD with SSD
- replace DVDrom with HDD in caddy bay
- remove the plastic locking mechanism from DVDrom and fit it to caddy bay
- use DVDrom as external drive.

u can see the pic in chinese site for guide:

any ssd is applicable as long as it is 2.5"?

Yup, any 2.5" SATA SSD preferable with minimum 128GB for OS and programs, selling around 300. smile.gif
Suggest u get it from Lenovo resellers and ask them to install Win8 and one key recovery for u. Get ready the suitable HDD caddy bay and ask them help to install for u. Remember don't format the HDD or modify any partition as u will loose the one key recovery feature.

Yes, really headache.. IBM Service Center also did not want to help.
Calling Lenovo Helpline and ask them to help..
Don't know what can they do..

Becarefull of this reseller: http://www.mudah.my/li?ca=9_s&id=67336

They claim they have 1 year international warranty. But they are not.
They selling US set.. I forgot to check this forum before buy it.. sad.gif

They just ask me to buy new webcam and refuse to repair or change my laptop..

WTF!!  icon_question.gif

QUOTE(Y.O.N @ Sep 9 2013, 10:29 PM)
The reseller should say US/AP set will have problem when comes to warranty claiming eventhough it have 1 year international warranty..

If they say it.. It is ok with me.. But they don't mention it...

No need to worry about warranty, local SC also help to change HDD to SSD as reported. smile.gif

QUOTE(wengjoe @ Sep 15 2013, 10:42 PM)
if you don't mind forking out $180, I suggest sent back to lowyat SC and let them fix it for you.

I have my SSD install by them and they load back windows 8 and the one key recovery.

attach is the screen shot of the recovery partition done by them.

I don't have the chance to try out the recovery function yet but I manage to load into the software to perform recover if I want, so there should not be any issue as long the partition is maintain at your disk.

regarding the caddy bay, there are many external parties which work well but I have yet try on my Y500, but I came to know that Lenovo shop in Digital Mall do sell the caddy bay only specifically for Y series notebook for $150 but have order from them and could take months, order mine already from them.

Its a great price with its spec...i just frustrated with their false advertising...really looking forward to get GT750 ultrabay...

any seller do that?  drool.gif

I guess they have limit the supply of ultrabay gpu GT750m due to poor demand and over supply of ultrabay GT650m previously. They need to clear the stock for ultrabay GT650m below cost in China. sweat.gif

u can pm storm88 for ultrabay gpu GT750m. Do check the compatibility with Y510p/GT750m or Y500/GT750m. smile.gif

Official local set Y510p run out of stock due to popular demand and restocking ETA around 2 weeks according to resellers. nod.gif Probably upgrade with graphic card GT755m(GDDR5). hmm.gif
Suggest to wait for local set with 2 yrs warranty support and avoid grey imported US set(AP set) with no warranty support locally. icon_rolleyes.gif

120w adapter is insufficient to support the power consumption of SLI gaming. u will overload the adapter and might cause damage to the adapter and laptop components. smile.gif
u can get the 170w adapter from local set Lenovo resellers.

Suggest to wait for restocking of official local set with 2 yrs warranty and avoid US set (AP set) with no warranty support locally as reported. Y510p ETA around 2nd week of Oct. smile.gif
Local set Y410p is selling around RM27xx and Y510p around RM29xx. u can try to search hard for remaining stock of phased out model Y400/GT750m/DOS around RM2.3k.

Local set Y510p basic model ETA around 2nd week of Oct according to reseller. Better wait for official local set with 2 yrs warranty for peace of mind thumbup.gif rather than rush to US set (AP set) with no warranty support and all headache. sweat.gif

Bro ajul, u are selling US set(AP set) with no warranty support locally, mind to tell us how u help ur clients with AP set when local service centre rejected their major warranty claims for 1 to 1 replacement? icon_question.gif
Are u leaving them alone and helpless? sweat.gif

maybe u dont like they know it, u get less $$$. tongue.gif

We are here to updates interested buyers with latest info from resellers and create awareness for no warranty support locally for US set (AP set) rather to let them mislead by "1 yr international warranty". Its fair for them to know it. icon_rolleyes.gif

if you want it to run cooler the only i can suggest is running on battery saver mode and use intergrated graphic setting instead of auto detect in nvidia control panel..

As mentioned on Lenovo web page Free 3 years McAfee Internet Security License...is it mean this?or additional 3 year?
My current mcafee Internet security only hav 30 day activ.

Pls some body tell me what inside the Lenovo Y410P box ...except notebook, battery,battery charger and user manual guide..
I buy from normal pc shop ...with pre order (no ready stock)and is open when I go to take it.

u can refer to the unboxing pic for local set Y500 here:
http://cforum2.cari.com.my/forum.php?mod=v...&extra=page%3D1
u should get the same thing as below:
1. Inside seal box with laptop, battery, 120w adapter, manual
2. separate 3 years McAfee Internet Security e-card
3. Dicota backpack
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Y410p is bundle with 3 yrs mcafee and backpack, check with ur reseller if they miss out anything.

Suggest u to double check whether its local set with 2 yrs warranty since u received open box laptop. smile.gif
- key in the serial No in Lenovo website : http://support.lenovo.com/en_MY/product-service/default.page
If location is Malaysia, then is local set.
If location is US, then is grey imported US set with no warranty support locally.

- register ur warranty online in Base Warranty registration to 2 yrs, else it default as 1 yr.
