Hi, I have been using a Lenovo Y510p for four months now and it didnt cause any problems so far. Yet few weeks back all of a sudden, all my games started lagging severely. When I say I mean lag spikes every 3 or 4 seconds. Making everything unplayable. At first I thought it would go away with a fresh re-install of windows 8. Yet the lag issue wasnt solved even after the re install. So I am assuming this is a hard ware issue? My configuration is:
Processor: Core i7 - 4700MQ CPU @ 2.4 GHZ
RAM: 8 GB
Graphics: Nvidia GT 750M
OS: WIndows 8.1 Pro
HDD: 1TB 5400RPM

I still have warranty in Canada, but I dont know how to avail it. Please help me in this matter and how I can fix this. Thank you.

You could have picked up some malware that is messing about, use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to do a scan and see if it picks anything up. If you do that and it cleans it out and you still don't see a difference, you may need to get a refund on that.

Well I tried what you said, it doesnt make a difference. As I have mentioned, the lag persisted even after doing a fresh reinstall of Windows. What are the chances its a hardware related problem? Any way to diagnose that?

Well, if it is a hardware problem, there's nothing you can do with a laptop besides return it or get a replacement.

Not enough power. Disable sli problem should go away. Check that your 170w power supply is still putting out the juice.

Worked for me hopefully it will for you as well.

I have the same problem. I uninstalled the nvidia card driver (current version) and nvidia geforce experience and revert to old (previous driver older than that) and problem solved. may be you can try that.
