If you are already seeing 93C you most likely will see higher temps with 1Ghz, and potentially see your computer shut off to protect the GPU.

What you should do, even if you don't install the modded BIOS, is to repaste your laptop. I saw 93C (with artifacts) before I repasted and had temps drop roughly 20C afterwards using Tuniq TX-4, depending on the game. The highest I have seen it go at 1Ghz is around 78C.

thank you very much!

I try to buy today , and repaste this week. i take some photos of temps , from before and after repaste.if it drops 20c , i install the modded BIOS

Hi everybody , i just bought a lenovo y580 , with fresh install w8 and the las graphics drivers , i obtein in 3dmark06 only 13548 . If i repeat the benchmark ,this decrease to 12800...

the temp in graphics is always less than 71ºc . Is it OK? i monitored it with msi afterburner. I´m thinking upgrade to an unlocked bios because i dont have thermal issues.

Anyone have the issue of decreasing performance?

I do some test changuing energy setting (lenovo performance), and now i obtein 93ºc while i play at BT4 betwen 35 and 45 FPS, with medium setting at 1920x1080. Turbo is always working ( 935Mhz ) and processor at 100% in energy setting. If i changue the energy settings to Balanced, the temperature decrease to 83-84ºc ...

I have a question, If i changue to unlocked bios , with 1Ghz fix in core of graphics car ,could i have overheating? (more than 93ºc when i play)

Thanks everybody.

Hey guys,

I just bought a Lenovo Y580, but the Intel WiFi adapter ist not working with MacOSX (Hackintosh), so I have to swap it.

Does anyone have a clue which adapter is the best for Linux and MacOSX? Must be PCIe and be able to use monitor mode in linux OOB

Thanks in advance,

LilaQ

Hello LilaQ,

I have a lenovo y580 , remember that we have a white list in our bios , and you cant use whaerever wifi adapter. If you can do that , you need flash your bios to an unlocker version .

I buy by second hand 3 huawei 556 from vodafone (in spain) for 5 E each , and use openwrt. I had use these for 1 year , and i dont have any problem. I use minidlna , transmision , and like repeater.

Hey guys looking to build up a gaming comp for my bro and am torn between the two. Planning on getting a corsair h100, is the $50 worth the extra 500mhz?

I bought 8350 , because is faster and you can overclock easy , but i use a big copper sink, and a big fan with low rpm. I´m very happy with this .i think that the extra cost is deserved. you can overclock more than 4,4 Ghz
