    I bought my first Laptop in awhile, coming from a long use of desktops. I game, but not to seriously, just swtor here and there, more graphic design really.

    Recently I purchased the y560p with 6570m, i7 2.00ghz for 560(600) after tax, shopping for laptops on a budget. My questions are more about what drivers, BIOS, and software should be installed for optimal use; and what hardware upgrades will work best to make this thing run smooth as butter.

    I originally wanted an asus, but with a deal like that I couldn't pass. My experience with computers comes mainly from building desktops, and my experience from mobile devices and battery saving comes mostly from android phone modification. So what can I do to achieve the best maintanence for the device, good battery health and smoother running hardware? Thanks! :)
