Product Review: Lenovo Ideapad z580 - i7 2.9Ghz, blue-ray, nVidia etc.
Initial comments - Day 1 of ownership - Gunmetal looks superb and what follows - "for the price point" - just adds cream to the cake with just two small caveats... Windows 8 and the Hard Disk.
These two items, especially the HD, I think let the overall system down. A faster smaller HD would, I believe, be a better choice as would Windows v7 32/64bit.
Unit inspection of the outside shows no faults as described in others reviews. Best to check just in case before starting things up.
For those not sure of specs, and to answer some queries in other reviews, checking hardware via Control Panel > System > Device Manager, shows: Processor is Dual Core i7 showing 4 cores @ 2.9Ghz > 3.1Gz - nVidia 635/2Gb + an Intel HD4000. Make sure nVidia is in the header description as the Intel HD4000 is, as far as I know, integrated into the MB.
Bluetooth V4 - WD HD Blue 1Tb @540rpm - Blueray/DVD read/write // have yet to try the provided s/w, but suspect will have to...
