just bought mine for RM2799. Lenovo Ideapad Y410p. so far no benchmark for heavy games yet. hehe but its quite a good laptop.

congrats.

I hope that you'll cover its performance running Crysis 3, Bioshock Infinite.

so far running cabalsea max out everything and tried for big war, 40+ fps average. besides that nothing yet. installing tomb rider now

Tomb Rider? O.o

Sounds so.. horny.... LOL

That aside, how are you enjoying the build/design of it? I find their build really nice, especially the design of their inside, the keyboard part and how it lights up.

Golden rule of waiting game: Buy when u really need it, wait if u are not in hurry.

Apologies if this is out of topic/scope, but would I really see a tangible major difference in performance between the Y400(i5) & Z400(i7)?

Mainly using for Video, photo editing (LR4, PS CS6) and also some gaming (I play skyrim on lowest settings on my old laptop) and will not be my focus, mainly games like MMOs, and maybe XCOM, or games like that, I do not need highest anything as I'm on budget and am realistic with expectations.

Thanks

Y400 local set don't spec with i5. If you go for grey import, beware of the Lenovo Malaysia warranty support issue.

The new XCOM do benefit from the better GT750M in Y400.

i7 in Z400 is pushing the thermal profile to rather uncomfortable territory

Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT750M@RM2799, 4GB, 500GB, W8, 120wPSU, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty
Y410p, i7-4700MQ + GT750M(GDDR5)@RM2899, 8GB, 1TB, W8, red backlit, 120w psu, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty
Z400 touch, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT740M + (1366x768, touch)@RM2799, 4GB, 1TB, W8; 2 years warranty

Looking at the RSP, go with the Y410p, if it is within your budget.

Ideally I would like to get the y410p though its slightly outta my budget reach for now. And not too sure I can wait too long as I'm still using my circa 2008 HP DV4 which feels like its on its last legs.

Ahh my bad, meant to be i5 Z400 & i7 Y400... facepalm

Z400 touch, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT740M + (1366x768, touch)@RM2399, 4GB, 1TB, W8; 2 years warranty

If you really can't wait to save up more, Z400T with GT740M could give you quite good performance in HD resolution.
But I strongly suggest you hang on for may be 1 to 2 more months for Haswell refresh

Alternatively, u can consider the best bang for the buck for video/ photo editing and gaming.

Use the extra budget to upgrade to 8GB ram & SSD.

I find that the weight is kinda heavy but since its a gaming laptop, i took HEAVY into consideration and out of the question. The build is quite good. Solid looking. The keyboard backlit led can be set to 2 contrast by pressing FN+spacebar key. Tried Tomb Rider benchmark. Run on ultra settings. Lowest FPS 14, Average was 21 FPS highest is around 28 FPS. For me its playable. Other than that, mine is the 768p i thought Y410p is 1600x900p but nevermind. I can force run this laptop to play games on 1600x900p by editing the resheight and reswidth in regedit.


Conclusion:

Pros:
Backlit Keyborad
Good JBL speakers
Haswell i7 with 6MB Cache
Decent GT750M which is faster than the GTX660M

Cons:
Not the IPS screen
Malaysia dosent have the 1600X900p model
No SSD's
Handrest needs to be cleaned once in a while after playing because the oil from our palm tends to stick there
Side exhaust vents instead of rear vents
Touchpad abit funny

when will the GT755 release ya ? preferably SLI,

coming pc fair ?

Thanks for the feedback.

Firstly, it's Tomb Raider... LOL..

Secondly, don't force it to run at a higher res, just leave it on 1366x768. The LCD can only display 1366x768, if you force it to run at a higher res, it's just processing extra pixels only to be down sampled back to 1366x768, using more power/battery life.

SSD you can just buy one in the future anyway, no biggie.

Yeah.. most 14" has the exhaust on the side.. no space for ones at the back generally.

Hope they can launch it before coming pc fair and not after pc fair clearance sales.
Best is to voice it at Lenovo facebook and let them hear our voice.

Just wait for the good news. stay tune.

I agree on the part of the force resolution but i just tried only. LOL. Ok here are the insides of this machine. GPU-Z and CPU-Z compare it to GTX660M. the clock speed different only.



Another review. Starcraft II Heart of the swarm. Ultra settings. All ultra with its highest resolution 1366x768 gets lowest FPS of 49, Average 55 FPS and highest 62. Currently for crysis 3 , i dont expect much but here goes...

Ultra settings. Not playable. high settings, average was 28FPS, lowest was 18FPS highest was 38FPS.

Bioshock i dont have. No money to buy game. Unless someone can send me a torrent link for it. I will personally install and review it here.
