Sorry should have written in more details.

I connected to an external monitor but nothing shows (blank screen). Only the laptop screen works even after I use "Extend display" to external monitor.

I suspect it's display drivers issues (running Windows 10), but not sure how to resolve it.

If you look at my screen shot, it's showing 6 monitor/display (which is clearly wrong). The laptop display is number 1, and external monitor is number 6. (Not sure where 2-5 comes from).

This is working fine in Linux though.

Can you pm me your serial number to check your spec details? Can try reinstalling Intel HD driver first.

Hi Prince J,

I'm existing customer that purchased Z5, 960m user, running 6th gen processor. (First batch)

Would like to ask, whether there is possible to upgrade my graphic card to 1060?
Can you provide me quotation of upgrade cost? Thanks
*
Hi abcd,

960M cannot upgrade to 6th gen proc + gtx1060, the port locations are different.

Hi, I'm currently shopping for a gaming laptop and came across Illegear. I tried to find a product compare option on your website but I can't seem to find it.

How can I see a comparison between the Z5 and Laguna? And since I'm here, whats the essential difference between these two models? Thanks!
*
Hi cryptchid,

The differences between LAGUNA and Z5 are:

1. Laguna doesn't utilize Nvidia optimus graphics switching. Z5 does. Laguna uses dedicated GPU all the time.
2. Laguna has smaller and slimmer chassis, bigger battery, and RGB keyboard & touchpad.
3. Z5 is RM300 cheaper.
4. LAGUNA has GTX1070 8GB option.

The temperature of GTX1060 are about the same in both models.

That's slightly higher than our benchmark 70C, perhaps you can send to us for checking your thermal paste/dust condition?

plug in. and whn i play fallout 4 with high settings,the fps is even under 30 bt is still playable..i dunno why..the temperature of cpu and gpu abt 70 and sometimes abt 72-74..very hot
*
72 to 74 is completely fine for 6700HQ /7700HQ and GTX1060 6GB GDDR5.

For the FPS, try setting "high performance" in nvidia control panel.

My z5 1060 temp depend on room temp. Cool room with aircond its stay 72 to 75. But no aircon room the temp will be 77 to 81. Usually i dont mind the temp. But seeing the upper keyboard feel really hot esp near the power button. Risau a bit
*
We placed the heatsink below the power button, that was why it's warmer than other area.

As long as your palm rest remains cold, it's fine.

I am looking for a new laptop for graphic/3d designer, i think i need a good graphic card, ram, cpu to run those designer software and load large drawing. Another important thing is screen color display must me real and accurate.

Many people recommended Mac Book, but I am more comfortable with Windows laptop.

End up i found all good graphic card laptop tag as gaming laptop, that is why I am here.

First question, is gaming laptop good to work as designer laptop?
Second, I am comparing Z5(because of cheaper) and S5X(because of lighter), targeting to equip gtx1060, any comment for using these 2 model as graphic design?

Hi huatty,

I suggest you to come to our showroom at http://illegear.com/getting-here to check out both Z5 and S5X to compare them side-by-side. Will assist you to select the laptop that best suits you.

Hi xarive,

It's not recommended to raid the M.2 SATA and the SATA drives.

Does the Z5 have the Optimus GPU switching capability? Also, the aluminium finish differs a bit than Laguna's, am I right?

Hi nyhorikita57,

LAGUNA aluminum finish is the same as Z series. The bottom of Laguna is softtouch rubber finish.
