The QTradio driver is successfully installed after restart.

As for the hotkey driver, you can use these hotkeys after installation:

FN + 8 Enable/Disable the Camera
FN + 9 Enable/Disable Intel Turbo Boost
FN + 0 Dim Display

As for the Intel 7260-AC and BT drivers, please pm me for download links. You can also drop by our office to get a driver CD.

lol..i didnt know the
fn+1 can increase fan speed
and all those other secret options u mentioned above

edit: anything else that is not visible but can use with fn?

Yep and FN +1 to maximize fan speed.

Others are common hotkeys for e.g. FN + Esc to disable/enable touchpad etc.

So far just when playing dota 2 in local lobby it is not smooth..

I tried COD:AW.. it's damn smooth in 1080p with high settings.. haven't try out ultra settings
The cooling is indeed top notch.. Played Advanced Warfare for about 1 hour, temperature of gpu & cpu are both 60+ degree c on average.. (I also wonder how come when I'm gaming the fan is so damn quiet.. in the end the fan is not at max speed )

After finding out the Max Fan "secret", the average of gpu & cpu temperature become 50+ !
Btw I underclocked my gpu and cpu.. it indeed lower some temperature also.. performance not much different

So far this laptop is superb
except for the weird scenario I got in dota 2

P/S: The max speed fan is quite noisy though.. But I still can tahan.. just when playing game at outside everyone will turn around and wonder where's the sound come from.. lol

bro what you use to see temperature in gaming?

me also can feel the laptop very cold in battlefield ultra, fan never max and very quiet. Not like my old laptop fan noise very loud and overwrite sound

my housemate alienware 14 fan annoying like hell and keyboard there quite warm, big brand somemore zzz

I'm using HWMonitor.. It's a very popular tools.. You can dl CPU-Z and GPU-Z to see your cpu and gpu status also..
For me it's decent lar.. cause never really have a gaming laptop before.. so I still feel kinda warm in the middle and right part of the keyboard.. mostlyl the gpu and cpu is located at there..

With max fan then it's a bit noisy but the keyboard remain quite cool.. not so warm compared to no max fan..

Just tried out BF4.. been playing for 2 hours..
This is what I get after 2 hours of BF4 w/ max fan speed and intel turbo boost OFF:


The machine is really good in cooling.. even better than Acer Nitro

Edit : Settings is all High.. NOT ultra

just got this around 4 days ago and the rubber is missing. any possible replacement for this rubber?


Attached thumbnail(s)

This is simply.... overkill.
Assuming the power is enough, this can be an overclocking beast.

Actually i underclocked my gpu and cpu.. it helped to drop a few degree c.. lol xD

so...
where the screenshots of temps with default & over clocked ?

btw, didjya get IC diamond or stock thermal paste?

I just updated my driver.. but it seems that I can't underclock my gpu ad.. lol
I got post the default temperature w/o underclock.. but not ss.. Not like I need to purposely play a game just to take ss right ? XD

Yea i used IC Diamond thermal paste..

thx bro. i need to tab out to see temperature? how to see temperature in game full screen mode?

Nop.. no idea.. But for FPS i do know, get Fraps.. when you installed it and open the program during you're gaming.. the fps will be shown on top left corner..

For Intel Drivers, you can download the Intel Driver Update Utility at the Intel Website. It will automatically detect & update all the drivers in your system.

Just collected my Z5 from the guys at Illegear!
Very friendly and helpful duo, thanks a lot!

Welcome to the Z5 family !!!
May share your Z5 config ? Lets try out some game and compare the performance.. So we can improve all Z5 user experience !!!

ur dota 2 problem solved dy?? just downloaded far cry 4..will install later

i saw Illegear facebook said Z5 uses 150W adapter instead of 120W by other 860M laptops, meaning i can overclock my Z5? How to do that?

Nop.. Still not solved yet.. When playing lobby game not smooth.. hmmm
So far you tried what game ? I played BF4 but half way crash.. i suspect is the game problem.. cuz I'm using ahem ahem version of BF
Advanced Warfare is more optimum that BF4 sia.. I can play AW with high settings in 1080p w/ 60fps++.. BF4 just get 40fps+.. but under 768p can get 60fps+

Ya.. it's 150W. Most ppl don't encourage overclocking your gpu / cpu.. You could try MSI Afterburner to tweak ur gpu settings.. I used to use that to underclock my gpu.. but now dono why after driver update (v347.09) I can't do it anymore
Do let me know if you manage to underclock/overclock using Afterburner..

P/S: if you dono what you are doing, better don't overclock your gpu..
