As it turned out in practice, the main problem of the Y530 is the constant howls of the cooler, because Lenovo underestimated the inclusion threshold of the coolers in the office-surfing load up to 55-60С, unlike the Dell G5, where the coolers are turned on not earlier than 70-75С. Because of this, despite the fact that the coolers themselves and the cooling system are better, according to reviews than the Dell G5, despite its nightmarish weight of 2.8kg and a hefty body that does not fit into any 15.6 "laptop bag, it Constantly buying customers with periodic howls of coolers in regular surfing every 2-3 minutes. And despite the fact that people have already managed to get access to the engineering menu with 43 settings screens, they have not yet managed to raise this threshold.
On my Dell G5, I was able to achieve complete noiselessness (like on a tablet) in office surfing! Thanks to the W10 tunnig and the volt mode in ThrottleStop with BIOS 1.5! Coolers not work 99% of time! A periodic noise on the Y530 makes the brain to all customers, Lenovo! replace the threshold in the BIOS with 70-75C as in Dell G5, or at least give the choice to buyers in the BIOS !!!
The second strongest drawback of the Y series is the curve of the keyboard for an additional digital block. It is impossible to print blindly using such indecency as a navigation or copy-paste block. What prevented to put the keyboard at least from the Lenovo E580? Sales would have increased dramatically, because statistically gaming laptops occupy less than 10% of the global market. Many people would gladly buy these laptops with a 2-year warranty and such a magnificent case, a convenient set of ports, just like cheap workstations, work computers with powerful stuffing, where you can work comfortably during the day, and play and have a rest in the evening . But no, Lenovo marketers why did they want to hang out and ruin a good laptop with a curved keyboard ...
Well, the screen contrast is terrible! I consider the minimum permissible 1300: 1, no less!
