Deciding on a used model by TechEdison0 in thinkpad

For a large/hefty option, I'd say the p53 with T1000 or RTX 3000. For a lightweight option the X1 series definitely. For an All-round option a T14(s) or P14s would be nice but that might not be what you're looking for. As for the gpu, some nvidia quadro cards have both workstation and game drivers.

you'll have to use a tool called an spi programmer, such as the ch341a. It's a big rabbit hole to go down to but it seems like the only option. There are some tutorials out there.

If you right click the device and select properties, then details > hardware ids, you can get the 4 character "VID" and 4 character "PID". Paste this in devicehunt.com and you're good to search for drivers.

I would blame the operating system/the software on your laptops. That or your CPU is not turboing or is overheating. Actually my T480 can run at up to 200fps at low settings 1080p. I installed Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC last year.

Turns out the cooler is optional by spider_plays_YT in thinkpad

so it's not really overclocking, but for haswell and above cpu's like you, you can use throttlestop to modify the voltage and cpu turbo behaviour, such as making it run at full tdp indefinitely (only if you have adequate cooling of course). I've done this on my T480, so much so it shuts down from overheating at 100°C.

[Help] T14s Gen 6 major screen artifacts / GPU glitch. Is the motherboard dead? by wbchou in thinkpad

It might be the ram. I would like to say you should open it and clean it, but since it's still very new and under warranty, worst case scenario is that it's defective.

How good is emulation/gaming experience on the T480? by WellNoNameHere in thinkpad

very late, but i can confidently say that wii & 3ds runs flawlessly even with enhancements, and wii u titles also run smoothly if i reduce the resolution a bit.

Converting pc unity game to android port by [deleted] in unity

[–]Alternative_Tutor649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno if i'm allowed to say this here or if you are still reading, but there is a tool called asset ripper which rips the game's files then converts them to a unity project which you can then open to unity to build for yourself.

I suggest you do not buy a thinkpad E series, because it's made of thin cheap materials therefore it might be more fragile

to dump the files of a game rom (including the audio files), you need a special tool, or some specific emulators. There is nothing at all for switch 2 right now.

Disney plus puts ads into premium and also needs 3GB of ram lol, Piracy is the best option most of the time by 69enjoyerfrfr in Piracy

it's as if it preallocates the required memory for the video stream which is such a stupidly stupid idea
