Hi Guys,
I've got a few questions on the Lenovo Y500 GT750M SLI.
1. The stock notebook comes with 8GB RAM in a single stick, so upgrading to 16GB by adding in an additional compatible RAM later shouldn't be a problem, right? Anyone done this with their Y500?
2. From the Lenovo flyer, the Y500(59-378187) is shown as equipped with a 120W adapter, but I also noticed some sellers selling the notebook with an additional 170W adapter as well (basically a 120W and 170W adapter). Shouldn't the stock Lenovo Y500 come with the 170W adapter as its running 2 GPUs? Any advantages or disadvantages?
3. What is the screen resolution? 1920x1080?
Thanks,
Dbassnut

according to forum from US user of y510, optimus function only when SLI is disabled... means that if no external GC in ultrabay slot, then only optimus can function.. if external gc insert, then optimus disable, SLI enabled..  rolleyes.gif

need to take out ultrabay for optimus to function..? cannot just disable sli in nvidia control panel.. hmm.gif

I want to know the simplest method to do a clean wins 8 installation on the SSD without compromising my HDD and stuffs. Basically, I just want it to be hassle free and hopefully won't mess up my partitions :\
There's this method that requires an original Wins 8 ISO but I can't seem to find any on the net. It's either Pro or Enterprise sad.gif
*
yeah.. i've read somewhere that you'll need win 8 ISO (since the win 8 key already lock with the bios)
my clean install done by my lenovo reseller.. so cannot help much..

what the smallest SSD can we install on Y500 ? without removing HDD
*
the smallest msata ssd that you could find..
probably 32Gb is the smallest.. however with that size you probably could only use it as cache drive..
get 64Gb or larger msata and install OS in it.. use HDD as storage..

which better whether adding the 500gb HDD 7200rpm or mSATA SSD 120/128gb on Y500 for better performance ?
*
SSD will obliterate HDD performance wise.. with a price of course..
plus notebook 7200 rpm hdd will run hot..

anyone knows whether the  y500 can switch the GPU manually through nvidia setting as in y410p? or the external gpu will run automatically when plugged in?

edit: for single graphic y500
*
intel gpu is disabled in y500.. only your nvidia gpu is usable..

plextor msata can read/write at 500mb/s, but the performance on y400 only get read speeds around 270 mb/s. And write speeds are around 180 mb/s.
Does this means msata doesnt perform to its best?
and y410p's m.2 Sata will have a much higher speed? will it worth the wait?
*
that is a very low score bro.. like almost half.. i think something wrong with your SSD settings.
in SSD thread there is some optimization guide.. check it out..
my plextor m5m 256gb seq read 500++mb/s, seq write 400++mb/s..

I'm already using it since it launched in Malaysia, on that time even 7XXM isn't release yet. sweat.gif
I'm curious of raw power of 755M in SLI configuration. Since it is something new unlike 750M. Besides that I think 750M is not worth to get because if you manage to over clock 650M it is almost the same since 750M is a higher clocked 650M with additional Boost 2.0. If not mistaken Lenovo will locked boost like what they did on first Y500/Y400 with 650M.
*
are you sure it will be something new? hmm.gif
if it is still using gk107, then most likely 755m will be a higher clocked 750m..
if gk106 then it will be something else (lower clocked 760m maybe?)

755m is overclocked 750m
750m is overclocked 660m
660m is overclocked 650m.. yawn.gif

One of the GT750m reach 92c is high. Probably the ultrabay gpu fans mulfunctions?  hmm.gif

exactly what i'm thinking also.. the GPU throttles to keep the temp below 98deg.. sweat.gif
