I get bad throughput, the occasional lag and sometimes a total connection loss (with different routers and access points, sometimes it wont even reconnect). Most of the times wired really is a must have for gaming... Thanks a lot octiceps!

Afaik the Killer 1202 is not in the whitelist. Range should be greater than the one from 2230, because of the better signal strength. But with the signal strength depending on many factors its hard to tell (e.g. ferroconcrete will cripple every w-lan). Does anyone know if cards with the new ac standard are available or when they might be released?

Did anyone try to increase the speed of the main internal fan? I've tried repasting (still have to try Coollaboratory Liquid Ultra) and cooling pads with little to zero changes in temperature. Normally the y500 doesnt reach more than 80°C, but as soon as the Cpu is fully loaded the temps skyrocket. Last but not least: don't run Furmark on a non-gaming Laptop (i mean the real gaming Laptops with adequate cooling), will only do harm.
