    Need a new PC with good specs

    If i do plan to skip the monitor will there be room to upgrade to an i5/i7 processor after stretching my budget a bit ? Also are the other components future proof , esp the motherboard ?Also would it be advisable to wait for the ryzen platform to be launched ?

    Need a new PC with good specs

    1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games?

    Real coders please stand up.

    My y500, though remains extremely cool has the fan running at full speed at all times. With no fan speed control, neither in the bios or any other s/w like speedfan working, is there any workaround for this ?

    The Lenovo Ideapad Y500 Thread

    Since the onboard hd4000 is completely disabled on the y500 and no workaround found yet,would it be safe to overclock the gfx card on batteries to a level that would atleast yield decent gameplay for less intensive games ?If, yes could you give me a few ways to do so.
