feel like sending in my Y500 into service center for massive clean up.
i need them disassemble my whole notebook, clean up all the dust and reapply the thermal paste for both CPU and GPU do the service center in 1U have such service for notebook under warranty ? i know HP have that kind of service. |

QUOTE(jackers13 @ Feb 9 2014, 11:30 AM) Yea, i read the previous post b4 and recently someone went there n also got same answer from reseller. If only one or two reseller said like tht mybe they were lying but all of them said the same thing need to upgrade on ur own, but yea i will call lenovo to confirm it. one suggestion, try to ditch away the 1TB 5400 rpm HDD because it will generate tons of heat plus the performance is really bad.Anyway, this is my first laptop with grafic card, can anybody share how to maintain it n wht kind of software to use to monitor the performance, temperature etc2   move to a SSD if budget allow, the 1TB HDD can slot into caddy bay as an extra storage.
