Haha it's okay. My sister did said if there aren't any, it's fine with her. I did showed her Dell 14R but she doesn't like the design. I guess looks does matter to girls. (I for one doesn't even care how my laptop looks as long it can pack lots of power )

3. Usage : Office, and occasionally gaming (tomb raider/Skyrim in low-mid setting)
4. screen size : 13" - 14"
5. Weight : < 1.8kg (the lighter, the better as i will travel A LOT.)

Hellooo..

Am looking for a lappy with following specs:
- i7 or i5 (at least 4th gen)
- 8GB (expandable to 16GB)
- Full HD
- budget 4k
- decent battery life

Right now, the best option i have is Lenovo Y500.
Any lappy with 14inch that has Full HD and within this budget?
Mainly use for work. May need to run VMWare and lots of programming.

Care to share what other options available?

Thanks!

Y500 will not give you decent battery running time (and it's not Haswell)
14" with FHD? Out of your budget.

Oh . If Lenovo don't provide drivers' CD anymore then how should I install them if I were to format them in the future @.@ ?

What's your opinion ? Should I go for Windows 8 or stick with Windows 7 Ultimate ?

Thanks for the info.

Any idea when Y510p will be available? That will definitely help to extend battery life..

Yeah when will Lenovo Y510p be available in Malaysia ?

Do you guys know the price if I just go for 1 graphic card instead of 2 ( perhaps replace it with a SSD or ODD , not sure which one still , any opinion? ) ??

I guess with 1 2GB graphic card is more than enough to play any games on above average settings , correct me if I'm wrong >.<

I play Dota 2 and HoN mostly though .

Do you mean there's a choice of option which is swappable graphic card / SSD / ODD / fan ?

This post has been edited by juniorlcq: Jul 31 2013, 04:05 PM

Yes.. Y410p has swappable optical drive. Can swap with HDD or replace with 2nd GPU..

Oh thanks for that information , didn't know about it .

Just found out on the US web page though .

http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideap...510p/index.html

sifus who are re-sellers say it's very soon, and they already know the spec

Lenovo One Key Recovery.

It's your call

Guys I found this .

http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/IdeaPad-Y-U-V-...an/td-p/1153105

By the way any idea when is Lenovo Y510p available ?? I'm in a hurry >.<

How's the cooling system of the laptop ? Good ?

Oh really?? How soon?
I urgently need to get a laptop replacement...

To wait or not to wait...

What if someone wants to do a clean os installation into their SSD instead..will that be hard?
and Y510P/410P ssd is not common now...
do you think grabbing a cleaning stock Y500 with msata 128GB ssd is a good idea when 510p out?
