You don't need to flash anything, your Z5 comes with the latest BIOS.

For others who are interested to upgrade to anodized aluminium casing plus external antenna, it is possible, BUT we do not have any spare parts for the aluminium casing at this moment  sweat.gif

Might need to replace the antenna and bottom part as well because bottom part of new Z5 also becomes silver grey.

so it'll be more than 250 ?

True, and luckily the GPU/CPU didn't change.

yeap !! really luckily din change, or else im going to kill myself for not asking any new up coming model , normally i always ask that after a lesson i learnt last time haha.

imo with the new casing, more people will buy the z5, since some of the customer said before the design not suit as they wanna use it in office or smth.

Is there anyway to off the Intel Turbo Boost by default?

looking for this answer too...
btw other than draining the battery life, does it hurt our computer to permanently leave it on turbo boost?

anyone facing problem with the SD card reader?

I tried 3 of my SD card all of them result in the error : Format SD card first before you can use it.

I tried to use the format in the z5 itself, but it says unable to complete format.

All 3 SD cards work well along with my camera.

I tried using my camera to format, but still cannot open by using the built in reader.

Just tried with external card reader, everything works fine.

Could it be driver problem / windows 8 stuff?

Hi Blizzard,

I suggest you to use the exact same ram to do dual channel.
*
hmm if i get the ram from u guys, the price will be as the same as quoted in the website? or will it be cheaper / more expensive

QUOTE(huislaw @ Sep 9 2015, 11:28 AM)
Yes it helps. So far cpu max only 80 with turbo on n GPU Max 70. If turbo off can reduce around 10. Let me do some more test when free.

Turbo off also don't feel diff in gaming. Looking for way to off it by default since always forget to off it.
*
yeah same, and once i've finish gaming, off the turbo boost, and wait awhile, the temperature goes down fairly quickly. thumbup.gif

Ram .. Dual channel.. Y ppl recommend to get the same rams same brand etc at that time because its better to have the same ic on the ram binned with the same jdec timings. Bioses on mobos are updated with different ics.
So things get whack sometimes when you pair different ics with same spec. Because the drive by the imc skews are different. Laptop n desktop is the same in this respect. Totally would listen to PrinceJ

Take a wiff n technical support in lyn. U will see alot of ppl having issues after some time with upgrades on ram with same spec but most probably different ics on them. Ics are binned n improve regulary as well to increase yield n reduce cost.

Are you playing on a hardsurface in a good ventilated area??
Nvr seen the temps on cpu hit that high.
if ure in a warm area its better to just put the fan at high.

High temps wont kill the cpu or gpu. It can affect other components durability that are prone to heat like vram for the gpu n rams etc..

So do whatever u can dude to lower it. If i have to game in battery mode for a while in less ideal situation.. I would use battery boost in nvidia gfe n let it optimise the game to lower setting to hit that frame rate.

90c..

Theres another possibility. All cpu has different vids. Some lower n some higher that corresponds to different voltage hence different temps. Btw i am not sure but guessing u lucked out with a higher vid. Again just guessing here.
*
if i constantly leaving the turbo boost on while plugged on. will it harm the lappy?
(not on games always)
and how about leaving the fan on maximum in another case. will it result in fan durabilty loss?

Msata increases boot time on os. 256gb barely enough for a gaming install drive. Nowadays need 500gb to 1tb.

Tech 8gb is enough. Since vram is at 3gb n swap reseved n most games are at 4-5.  So 8 is borderline. Pagefile is needed for hybrid sleep/hibernate.  So its enough. Rams in general with ddr4 coming soon.. Ddr3 prices will go up...

Msata... Sata interface price is dropping since smaller fabs in nand n new tech in stacking. It however faces challenges from pcie based m.2 n the new nvme standard. But those are expensive atm..

So decide base on this dude.
*
why ddr4 coming soon, and ddr3 price will go up? shouldnt ddr4 be better than dd3 ._.

i dont get the msata part thou, btw my comp is running one 1TB SSHD already, hence considering the MSATA
