Welp. I recieved my laptop at long last. The AC version of Intel's 7260 card ain't whitelisted by default. So i downgraded my bios to 2.07, flashed the whitelist mod, and bam. Awesome speeds all around. The other day i got a 27.6MB/s download rate from Steam. On an N router, not even an AC one.

So... The y510p has a M.2 form factor SSD, while the y500p has a mSATA form factor SSD, correct? Oh boy. Finding a replacement SSD with good speeds will be difficult then...

Bluestacks actually work pretty darn well on older hardware too. I tried it on a 2nd gen i7, with a GeForce 540m. Everything was smooth as butter with the games i tried out. :3 So on the y510p it should be running smoothly as well.

I doubt the graphics card has the power needed to output to three screens at once. Not many laptops do. I also believe it's a question of bandwidth.

Thankyou, I have been opening command prompt but it automatically opens to the system32 directory. I tried saving the .bat file in there but it wont find it if it is in there @Panzer06

You have to change the directories, this is done using good ol' DOS commands like "cd" So for instance, if you saved it on your desktop, you'd do "cd C:\Users\[username]\Desktop\[folder you saved it in]\" and then just write out the name of the bat file and hit enter.

Okay, so, from what i can gather from this thread, some of the 7260 AC cards are whitelisted, and some aren't. Does any of you guys know which are? Mainly asking because i should be recieving my y510p later today, and want to swap the wifi card immediately, and it would be nice if i could just do it without having to flash the BIOS first.

Man. Poor GPU that has to run a 4K screen. It's gotta take some processing power to handle after all.

Though... Having a 4K screen would be so awesome. Way better than my 1440p monitor.
