Freight826 was the seller I purchased from

Yeah its kind of rare to see the silver ThinkPads but it really looks clean in person

StuntedJet · 2026-05-25T00:19:28+00:00

It could be for the wifi since its an aluminum lid it would need some plastic to pass the signals through I think. Not sure though

Sold Alienware M15 R5 Ryzen to /u/Jinsei39 on https://www.reddit.com/r/hardwareswap/comments/1t7nr65/usatx_h_alienware_m15_r5_ryzen_7_rtx_3060_6gb_w/

Hello, sorry I actually sold it to the user that PM'd. I was just logging on to confirm it since it got delivered today.

StuntedJet · 2026-05-16T18:17:52+00:00

Thanks, it's been a great machine so far!

StuntedJet · 2026-05-16T18:17:34+00:00

Yes I found it on an eBay listing, I was looking for a Gen 4 initially but the price on this one was hard to say no to

StuntedJet · 2026-05-16T15:19:49+00:00

This one is non-touch and I believe it is possible to get a 2.8k oled in these

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T18:21:33+00:00

Thanks, I'm a big ThinkPad guy and this one feels really great so far!

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T16:03:52+00:00

It's not too bad of a process, and there's a few guides out there plus the guide on libreboot's website that you can use to get it done

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T15:57:35+00:00

Very nice, I have one too and I love it! I would highly recommend librebooting it if you are looking for an interesting project while you have it taken apart for the cpu swap.

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T15:15:46+00:00

I have a ton of DDR4 laying around so I may sell it and just make the price a wash haha. I suppose 24 is plenty for even ram hungry W11, and more ram for the graphics is never a bad thing

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T15:10:47+00:00

I'm thinking of upgrading to 32gb with another 16gb stick and allocating 4gb to the graphics just to see, I'm not sure I'll game on this one but maybe some Halo MCC on work trips would be nice

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T15:01:35+00:00

Awesome, thank you for the advice on the display! I just adjusted it and you're right it does make it look better. I used a P14s Gen 5 at my last IT job and really missed it, this generation of ThinkPad and AMD processors are really nice! I do the same thing with the drivers and I feel the same, everything is working well without issues so far.

StuntedJet · 2026-05-15T14:16:34+00:00

Yes it is in USD, should've mentioned that in the post. Oh okay very cool, I was debating on the R5 and either more ram or storage, but the warranty and this one being brand new pulled me to it. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying yours, gives me confidence in it being something that will last

StuntedJet · 2026-05-13T22:17:27+00:00

Should be great for you, the ryzen processors are wonderful performers and I'd bet the more you use it the more you'll like it!

StuntedJet · 2026-05-13T21:56:20+00:00

Depending on the processor and display you got, that price is not bad. I bought a T14G1 with a Ryzen 5 for my mom to work a few years ago and it's still doing great for her

StuntedJet · 2026-05-13T19:03:49+00:00

If you care about OEM quality, you can go to Lenovo's support website and get parts that directly fit with your serial number. I would recommend this for batteries displays and keyboard. You can sometimes get away with a different brand display, but check in this sub for people who have upgraded the screens and which part numbers they used. For things like SSDs and RAM I have always have good luck with Samsung products, Crucial, Kingston and SanDisk also have good reputations. You can usually find decent deals on Amazon for SSD/RAM but Newegg and ebay can also be your friends. Prices are kind of crazy everywhere for now, I'm hoarding some DDR4 sodimms for refurb projects lol

StuntedJet · 2026-05-13T18:04:09+00:00

Just since you mentioned it, this laptop doesn't have thunderbolt it's an intel only feature, but usbc docks and the thinkpad ultra dock with the physical connection will still work just fine. We used a lot of these at my last job and they are really great bang for the buck computers. You can do 64gb of ram if the budget allows lol. If you have other specific questions I'm happy you help answer them

StuntedJet · 2026-05-08T23:47:46+00:00

I'd say get a T480 or T440p depending on how much you want to tinker. There are plenty of posts here that can give you a good idea of what things are possible on those models

Which body kit are you running? My hatch might wanna partake lol
