The Windows 8 Experience Index here is messed up. I have a laptop with GT750M DDR5 and its 5.1(Graphics) and 6.8(Gaming Graphics) in the WEI. Plus, the GTX860M is a lot faster my GT750M....

Are you sure the  Windows 8 Experience Index shown in the article is correct for this model? The graphics are surprisingly low to me. I'm considering buying this (mostly for video editing) but that has given me pause.

This windows experience index is bullshit...i am using this laptop over a month now and it's surprising that every game like Titanfall,Watchdogs etc have run on high settings smoothly...no worry at all ....for temp factor it has remained around 75 deg c while gaming ...i owned an alienware m15x and i know the way y50 has satisfied me over my previous machine....go ahed and buy it.....

I have nothing negative to say about my Lenovo Y50 so far. It actually has crazy good performance so far, and I doubt I've had even the slightest moment of lag on anything.

I do recommend using this link: http://bit.ly/CheapY50 to get a discount upon entering the Lenovo website.

Disabling Intel Turbo Boost when it is needed is dishonest.  If a user pays for a 4700HQ, they expect that the CPU will be able to run at its full Intel rated speed which includes Turbo Boost.  Users need to hold Lenovo accountable by shopping elsewhere or returning their Y50.  The Lenovo Y510P had the exact same performance killing "feature" which has never been fixed.  Both models suffer from completely inadequate cooling when you try to run them at their full Intel rated speed.

Lenovo said they are ONLY suing maxwell architecture GPU's. Also I bought the model with 4GB VRAM and it is the GM107 version meaning its maxwell

You said Surface temperatures could be a problem...
But does it have an impact on gaming preformance?
I have an acer notebook which can get hot up to 95+ °C in some games and it would often cause serious stuttering.
I'm really considering on buying the Lenovo y50 and I hope it doesn't have problems of this kind...

For those not wanting to substitute the display, can you provide a link to your display calibration numbers?

In order to calibrate your display you need to calibrated ICC File that used - then you install that into your Windows to use their calibration settings.  Do a Ctrl-F search for 'ICC File' on that page where the laptop is reviewed - that's the file you want to download & use.
