which better ? gt 755m or intel HD4600 ? blush.gif

GT 755M better performance.

Intel HD4600 better efficiency.

It comes with both and will swap between them as and when the laptop needs performance or battery life.

ok thanks . notworthy.gif

Yeah.. It should do the swapping on its own, but you can also force GPU usage, or in the software change the default GPU usage and all. Useful when some programs such as photoshop or Logitech Gaming Drivers will use the nVidia GPU by default unless you force it to do so otherwise.

Just got a msg from Hikari85. The Lenovo Y510P should be available at the end of August. Hmm. Wonder got merdeka sale or not.
I'm considering getting either a Y500 or a Y510P from her. Anyone have any experience buying stuff from her or not?

Thanks,

I buy almost exclusively from her. She might sound cold in her messages, but I know she receives lots of requests daily and all so it's understandable.

What I like about her is her honesty and that she sells almost anything. She'll tell me straight up when the item will be arrive, when she'll ship out of if there are any delays. She won't make empty promise just to get your business. As I buy almost anything from her, pricing wise she is often not the cheapest, but I go back for convenience and with the other points I just mentioned earlier.

This is a stark contrast with another seller I had who promised me Tuesday morning delivery if I banked in the amount on Monday. Ended up I only got the item one whole week later after many following up daily and all, even then I kept getting empty promises that came and went.

Thanks guys.
1. hmm. So Y500 or Y510P (should be out in end of August)?
2. The laptop (y500) already has 8GB DDR3. I'm thinking of adding in another DDR3 8GB 1600Mhz Team Elite.
Anyone have had problems with Team Elite RAM & would the both DDR3 run in dual channel?

I don't know what the original RAMs are, but generally you should get the RAMs in pairs.

btw...do you have any news about 510P price?

and do you think 2 years warranty is enough? i am thinking like a laptop after 2 years is old enough to retire already  hmm.gif

Warranty wise it's either Dell's or nothing. Sadly.

I just love Dell's warranty service. 3 years next business day to your door service or a 1 to 1 replacement. Can't beat that. Includes accidents such as water damage or drop damage/cracked LCD etc.. too bad they don't have anything good for me..

Yeah.. all my monitors are Dell.. in fact I just replaced one of my monitor that just started having bright pixels.. 1:1 no questions asked.. I really wish they start making good laptops that can match power and lightness of the new portable gaming machines.

Sorry, I do not consider 4kg for a 14 incher as portable. Not when there are machines very capable at 1.7 - 2.2kg

My contents of my bag normally consists of my laptop, my Camera (Full Frame), Flash, 2-3 set of lenses depending on work.. extra HDD for photos... so yeah.. I can't compromise and get a lighter camera/lens, so I has got to be the laptop to compromise. LOL. tongue.gif

the throttling happens only when the CPU heats up, right?

so, if I manage to cool it down (like using it in an air-conditioned room) properly, the throttling will not happen, am I right?
*
Throttling happens to keep temps down, so you would be correct to assume so.

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.

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  hmm.gif  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.  icon_rolleyes.gif  thumbup.gif
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

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.

Hi guys,
For those of you who have ordered the Y510P, could you check which CPU it came with?
Is it the  i7-4700MQ 2.4G as advertised or the i7-4702MQ 2.2G as some other users have checked? (see forum below for details).

Just had a look at the forum.. I can't believe the big fuss they're making it out to be man..

And that Pizza analogy is bad. It isn't ordered Peperoni and getting Ham. It's ordering for a 30 pieces Peperoni slices pizza but getting 28. =\

I understand how it was advertised as one and mislead as another, but to demand so much and also talk about Ferrari with Toyota engine (yet another stupid analogy).. Geram.. LOL

Why do you find it annoying?

I find touchscreen freaking convenient when you're lying in bed or relaxing on the sofa..
