Comparing to the current crop of portable gaming notebooks, we found the IdeaPad Y510p’s scores to be competitive. Scores on the “Home” and “Creative” scenarios were about 8% better while Storage” saw the biggest improvement of 25%. Thanks to the IdeaPad Y510p’s upgraded internals, it expectedly performed marginally better than the model it replaces, the IdeaPad Y500. We will be testing the system using four different scenarios, Home, Creative, Work and Storage, which simulates different workloads that a user might subject the system to.
