Y730 is overpriced in Msia. Cooling is just a bit better, not noticeable

Plan buy this laptop with following specs:-
i5, gtx 1060, 8+8gb ram, 256gb SSD, 1TB HDD.

Which cost around RM5k with the 15% Flash discount. Anything i should take note or can be more cost efficient with lower specs?

I think it's cheaper if you upgrade RAM and storage by your own

Why don't install by yourself? It's quite easy

I tried to open the back cover, but it seems hard to open the cover, plus already "create" few scratches after many attempts...

Do you have the video guide on how to open the back cover? The youtube videos that I watch were not helpful enough...

The back cover is not easy to open, need to apply some force to it (gently). Once you pulled up the sides it can be removed. Be careful not to destroy the clips at side (I broke them)

You destroyed the clips? Is it serious? I might want to search again on the video tutorials on how to open the back cover...

i5-8300H is good enough for games, and it runs cooler too
Get 1TB HDD, upgrade SSD by your own (a good SSD can be bought cheap nowadays). Or just get 256GB SSD and add HDD later

Thanks for the suggestion.

Not an IT person. Is it easy to install RAM and HDD for Y530? If yes, any brand of RAM and HDD also suitable?

Quite easy

RAM just need to match capacity, frequency and timings

HDD any reputable brand will do

Hi, need your advice on the following Y530/GTX 1060/W2y+ADP

https://shopee.com.my/LENOVO-LEGION-Y530-81...9688.1540395170

Any advice from this seller? Or better I get from Lenovo website?

Shopee seller
Pros - cheap
Cons - not sure reputation

Lenovo site
Pros - trustworthy
Cons - if add 1TB HDD + ADP (same spec as Shopee), already reach RM5700.

This model has low sRGB 60Hz IPS, better customize online (need to wait)

EITstore often ships late and doesn't provide bubble wrap packaging

Upgrade storage by your own, cheaper. Also, 8300H is good enough for most games, and it runs cooler
