Keyboard is good bro as expected..normal nie although the space bar could be more sensitive..

Anyways im using a external keyboard for gaming (see siggy)
Ahh...sounds convincing. Illegear facebook says subwoofer is good and better than lenovo y50, how good?

I cant describe how good exactly is the woofer of the z5 compared to y50..but since i get to compare both the z5 and y50 (belongs to my friends), i can say that the z5 produces more deeper bass and low frequency compared to the y50
Read my review at front page..i also compared with g55vw my old laptop

Hey buttwait,

You have to install Intel SRT driver and setup RAID in BIOS. I will call you later to guide you through smile.gif

I have a question and this might sound a little bit stupid  whistling.gif
Is it okay to use this kind of laptop for long hours? 5-8 hours of gaming?

I have been using Z5 around 2 weeks I'd say the cooling is top notch. Play intensive games but keyboard and palm rest still very cold. 2 Thumbs up for the cooling design. thumbup.gif

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

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  doh.gif
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 sleep.gif
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..

Ok thanks I will try afterburner and see.

Hi J,

On the Illegear Z5, with "8GB DDR3L RAM 1600MHz - 1 X 8GB"
What is the full spec of the RAM ?

I am shopping for SO-DIMM RAM to replace my existing N55S
which is also compatible with Z5, likely get 8GB DDR3 on 1 slot.
*
I think all ram should be compatible gua..My ram is Crucial 8GB one.
