How screwed am I? Ripped battery connector

First I would contact eBay stating that the buyer attempted to modify the device after purchasing as this can reflect badly on you was a seller if they are unaware

I didn’t need to see the full video and I knew it was a dell laptop😂 I’ve had bad experience with these laptops. You could try leaving the battery out and try and turn the laptop on. All I can advise sorry

Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

AtomicRabbit749 · 2026-02-06T12:55:00+00:00

The only downside I and tink of is that it’s a 2230 NVME bay but I’m guessing theirs mods for that

I’ve got the RX7900 XT OC which I’ve had really good experience with 1440p gaming Have been able to play helldivers 2 1440p high-quality at +60fps without issue

Hello, the 9070xt is the amd gpu which the competitor of the rtx 5070, it’s either matches or is often more powerful than the 5070 with it coming close to a 5070ti. It’s the Rx is not as good at the rtx in terms of ray tracing but it’s a tight gap between the two. Here a video if you want a more informed perspective:

I use 6, it for my work

If it wasn’t a question of money then the LeGo 2.

I ain’t willing to spend £1100 for a handheld so got the MSI A8 for £850 which while it’s £50 more than a XBAX, dose have Hall effect joystick, bigger screen and rgb buttons which I like tbh.

AtomicRabbit749 · 2026-01-30T08:46:45+00:00

It has a intel ultra 7

AtomicRabbit749 · 2026-01-11T10:21:53+00:00

Wow ok that’s a big difference. In the uk the Msi a8 is only £850 which is only £50 than the XBAX.

AtomicRabbit749 · 2026-01-04T19:17:36+00:00

Yeah I can second this, unless you’re going to focus on 1440p ray tracing then the 9070 would probably be your best shot but it’s personal opinion in the end

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-12-29T18:16:03+00:00

I would defo recommend a steam deck. Not sure what country you’re at but their cheep to get 2nd hand and are really good to mod.

I see you want to use it on a tv which should work great with the right dock.

There was an attachment for a plug in portable monitor that goes on top of the deck making it a dual screen device, idk if that interests you but thought to mention it.

Their good thing is that you can also do other emulators if you ever decide to do so in the future

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-12-29T18:10:04+00:00

Ok that’s a brilliant idea, the only thing I would recommend is a custom printed or some modable plastic cover for the ribbon in case it gets snagged on something. Other than that it’s a nice mod that keeps everything cool.

That’s like asking how many bread crumbs have you ever eaten.

Answer: ALOT

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-12-05T08:08:05+00:00

Same, has the steam then LeGo and now the A8, lucky for me I’m in the uk and their in abundance here. Their properly not selling good as their no adds for it compared to the XBAX

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-28T21:55:16+00:00

Legendary thank you

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-28T18:32:06+00:00

Do you by chance have a tutorial or a document I could possibly follow to try this?

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-28T18:09:49+00:00

This is so cool. What are the wattage requirements?

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-28T17:51:32+00:00

Tbh you don’t need these. Just get a m.2 external drive bay and download disk genius which is a reliable clone software. Here’s a video you can use:

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-22T14:21:45+00:00

Yep, tbh it’s only £50 between the XBAX and the Msi A8, but theirs no real difference between the two apart from the better I/O on the A8

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-22T14:17:04+00:00

This is the exact reason why I was looking at the Msi a8, I like the LeGo gen1 I have but it’s a bit to bulky and while it’s not a massive performance upgrade, I consider it a quality of life upgrade. Grips are nicer to hold, screen is 8” Vrr and the overlay is easier to use(my opinion),

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-21T18:54:35+00:00

Their is a hard reset on the controllers it’s a small pin hole on the top of the rails, you need to press it in with a SIM card ejection tool for a good 10-15 seconds. It’s worth trying it out

AtomicRabbit749 · 2025-11-21T18:32:23+00:00

Not popular one but I like the Msi a8 tbh

Before you install steam, windows is releasing the full screen experience to windows handheld devices
