So from what I understand, a lot of people picked Lenovo for 2 reasons:
Cooling VGA Upgradable But wouldn't the cooling issue be easily offset with just having an active cooling pad? While the portability/mobility issue (weight difference) can never be offset no matter what? But for long term usage, the upgradable VGA makes it leaps and bounds better than the MSI, as they are the first component in a computer to go outdated/under-performing. |

QUOTE(shin2l @ Dec 26 2013, 02:21 PM) You are right. From what i know, GTX770M and above (MXM module) can be switched, not sure GTX765M is soldered or MXM. Hmm.. depends on what kind of games TS plays..For CPU, intel I7 or I5 should be more than enough. Unless some gamers prefer high/ultra setting then they may opt to I7 (online, multiplayer, cpu intensive games) For budget tight "normal person need", I think they have no choice, bcs most of the laptop are with CPU and GPU soldered especially GPU. Future upgrade is unlikely. Lenovo Y500/Y510P is exceptional. If <RM3k, the most can go is I7 + GT750M or AMD GPU If RM3k~RM4k, the most will be I7 + GT750M/GT755M SLI or GTX765M For compatible issue, this one cant avoid, expecially every year when there are new GPUs released. Next year is more extreme: GTX880M with 8GB!! not sure is 28nm or 20nm.  Most games I've seen stresses on the GPU much more than anything else. I'm still using first generation i7 and it's working fine.. what's killing me always is having to upgrade my graphics card.. has changed from GTX 275 > 275 SLi > 580 > 580 SLi > 780.... -.- I would say as long as you have an i5 dual, you should be alright and try to opt for better graphics... correct me if i'm wrong. |

QUOTE(shin2l @ Dec 27 2013, 09:23 PM) you so rich, every graphic card with middle number not "7" then "8" Don't need to buy brand new. /ggbetter combination is I7 + GTX?80M for always high/ultra settings You would be surprise how cheap these cards go for once the new generation is out. I bought the 275 when there was 480 already.. and my 580 when there was 680.. The only one I burnt for is the 780, but that's just recently and during the price drop due to competition from AMD. You must also take note at what resolution the laptop will be having. In the case of the Y510p and GE60, it's at FullHD, so you'll need a little more grunt than normal. Scaling down is bad no matter how you see it. |
