If you getting y510p, check the processor is it running 4700QM as advertise. :3
because the new batch comes with 4702QM which is slightly low clock than 4700QM

well, the Y510p isn't here yet & the advertisement for Lenovo US is already misleading. For example, the SLI version is advertised as a a GT750M + ultrabay GT720M. For SLI, shouldn't both cards be GT750M?

Hope the Y510p arrives in Malaysia soon.

It is a typo, confirmed :3
It comes with 2 750M SLi

Yup, agree that Asus has really good designs & good quality. its just they also have the most SC horror stories as well. Just try emailing them for an eternal run around.

Wah. was looking for a like button, then I remember this isn't facebook. lol

because of nowadyas theasus sells had increase alot..they didnt expected on this..so give them some time to do..

Hopefully they do improve. I really liked the G55VX but it isn't so presentable for work as it really looks like a gamers dream machine.
Lenovo Y500s & Y510p look more business like, & so do the illegear RS-15.
Will probably be buying one of them after the Y510p comes in next month (hopefully).
Also, plus for Lenovo is that I can upgrade the warranty to on-site warranty, which means their tech will have to come to my place & not I go to them.

Lemmie tell you what it is, it's plastic or some glu material from the joints that lock the back cover to the mainboard together. Few weeks back I took out my back cover for the first time to install the 8gb cracial RAM and the mSata for my y500, in the process I'd break one of the joints, what i did was I'd superglued it back and put it under the Sun to dry, Then that white poweder started to appear, then I'd noticed that it was coming out from one of the other joints on the back cover. In your case however I think it's because of your lappie's heat [ mine was sun's heat ] so i don't think it's coming from the companents

Splendid!

Hi, thanks I think that might be it. So it is melted glue and will it be a problem for me in the future? Should I take and it for service? Just bought it less than 2 weeks ago =.= How come nobody else has this problem btw

Lol, I think it will be if you're planning to take out the cover and put it back in frequently. I have this problem lol, but i tested the other joints of the back cover, they're quite sturdy also...

Edit:typo

is it worth to go from gt750m to gt750m SLI?
coz game benchmark
show that it still cannot play fluently some games on ultra.

It's worth since it has the performance almost a 770M :3...

even 780m will struggle on some game on ultra + full hd..

but will 750m goes smooth with metro:last light on ultra but 720p?

superglue frosting is fume marks. its not powder or does it have anything to do with your laptop.

just send your laptop for a check up bro. sometimes the fan can shave off the plastic that wasnt properly fitted in. the dust could be those shavings.

hi, i finished metro last light on 1080p and high.

ultra is just a gimmick, you wont notice much difference.

Need reply A.S.A.P
to all those upgraded HDD to SSD:
which drivers/software did y'all reinstall on SSD to get y400/500 working optimally?
just wanna identify which are bloatware.
links of drivers are welcome.

Ultra possible if without AA and tessellation for full hd. Fps average for D6 inbuilt benchmark around 25 fps. At high without AA and tessellation around 30 fps. Interestingly enough my gpu temp is only 65C when playing at high for 1.5 hours. At 720p you can increase about 30% of those fps.




Thanks for the reply. I contacted Lenovo and they say they have never seen such a problem before. The white coating corresponds to 3 streak-lines on the back vent. It is not everywhere as in they fall on 3 predetermined paths. Quite hard to take a photo as the lighting prevents the powder from being seen. The smell apparently is some sort of coating on the electronics. It'll go away after 1 month.

Time for me to shine on this V2 thread! Hi all! Lenovo y500 Gt750M SLI Variant (7 weeks) Owner here!

Wanna ask to all those who owned y400/y410/y500/y510 with GT750M, have u guys found any new drivers for this graphic card? I'm stuck on using 311.27 driver (provided in lenovo website).... I googled and saw that there's already a 319.17 driver for gefore gt750M, but it's only for Linux and FreeBSD

Someone suggested me on V1 Thread to try out 320.14 beta driver for gt740m for my lappy... is it ok? Anyone tried this and confirmed it's stable?
