I suggest you check with Lenovo website about warranty upgrade period. Usually, warranty upgrade can be done within certain days from purchase. I am not sure for Lenovo, but Illegear is within 90 days.

Better call them directly, faster. I dont think warranty upgrade should take that long period (7 months for your case). Right now you talk to Lenovo first, make sure prepare enough info to them to trace your laptop purchase, if Lenovo reply you "warranty upgrade in progress", you can complaint Lenovo. If Lenovo say your laptop "receive no warranty upgrade since purchase", then you can raise a dispute against devour.

I am afraid the v3 thread will become dispute thread against devour.....

Just call Lenovo directly, if you confirm as I what I write on last post, then raise a dispute thread against devour. Bcs all of you have paid money for upgrade warranty

Okay, good luck and hope you all can have warranty upgrade successfully

Do as what I say, at least confirm by yourself first before raising a dispute.



DIY is always better if users dont mind travel here and there for some procedures.

Wah, it will be terrible if you open full black image. Before sending warranty, did you turn off driver to see whether it is driver issue?

Really terrible for you, cant play games for CNY. If possible, you can connect to external monitor using hdmi for temporarily use, after CNY then you send warranty, bcs you send earlier your Y510p will be put aside, better after CNY then they can do faster for you.

Sorry, I thought you mean Y510p.

Yes, definitely suitable for designer, but the problem is not sure Malaysia is lucky enough to have 4k version come.

And hopefully it is matte or non-glossy display

base clock, which means if you overclock gt750m to gt755m clock rate, it will "unofficially" become gt755m. And they are of the same identical card.

everything same, price RM200 difference just for 10% improvement. Last time Y500 and Y510p with GT750M is more valuable. In fact, GC is the same technically.

That is why I asked my friend faster buy Y500 (<RM2999 + warranty upgrade), however, it was still 3rd gen I7 but it was more than enough. Later, Lenovo refresed Y500 to Y510p with Haswell I7, price increased to RM3099 (not mistaken). Nearly the end of year, Lenovo refreshed again Y510p with GT755M plus price increased to RM3399. So, basically you are paying RM200+ for 40mhz increase in base clock (equivalent to 10% performance in SLI performance) which you can actually use for warranty upgrade.

The price change affected most in single version (RM200~RM500), SLI version always remains RM3999 (not mistaken) throughout the model refresh

Default is 2 yrs for lenovo y series, warranty upgrade can increse from basic 2 yrs to 3 yrs either with carry in service or onsite service. Accidental protection is also part of the warranty upgrade if not mistaken. Hope other sifus can advice.

For some users, number of freegifts is not important (unless free ssd, hdd, ram), warranty service is much important which I very agree.

As quote, can the job be done on Y500?? CPU may be socketed but GPU is soldered right?

Interesting, the games you optimized is it genuine games?

Good Goood

Bcs I only have non-genuine games, I am afraid that GeForce Experience will detect and charge me

congrats!!

How much you bought it?

I see, Y510p still expensive, I thought got CNY discount until RM31xx.

MCAfee is default by Lenovo (can refer to brochure), but if possible, opt for free warranty upgrade, haha

Really bad luck for those potential Y510P buyers, if gt750m still there, can get a RM200 deduction

Unfortunately, the answer is NO if you refer to GT800M or GT900M series.

The reason is Nvidia SLI driver compatible issue due to different series GPU.

In conclusion, the secondary GPU must be same series with current series (GT755M).

Wow, how much you bought and which variant?
