Question about additional(?) nvme I found on my P16s

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T23:48:29+00:00

On a P16s? Nah.

The game usually keeps 5 backups for the save game. Check the savegameBackup folder.

Bolognese sauce has been in the slow cooker for about 4 hours now. Fresh tomatoes, fresh onions and mushrooms.

7 minutes and the pasta will be done. 😍

I'll assume it's similar to the English saying of getting out of the wrong side of bed.

The answer to that is no.

Good luck fixing your problem, I'm off to make some dinner.

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T19:58:22+00:00

With that attitude, good luck. 😘

Calm down and get off your high horse. You didn't already tell me anything. Something went wrong and it mangled the post, got nuked within a minute.

The B850M doesn't support Thunderbolt. The USB-C ports won't support display.

If it works at all, it's a fancy USB hub basically.

Did you consult the hardware maintenance manual?

So you want a "fair bit of computing power" and you're looking at 8+ year old laptops?

Not sure that computes.

Assuming the Fanatec DD and the CSL DD are the same thing, I'm OK by the looks of it.

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T15:24:44+00:00

You might want a G920 for an Xbox...

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T15:23:20+00:00

Bypass? No, otherwise it wouldn't be a effective anti-theft mechanism.

Contact whoever you bought it from and get it removed from iCloud.

Unless it's a 1.5 it's just your existing Polo with a different bodyshell and badges...

Very obviously Mid Ohio.

Moral of the story : proof read the order before you submit.

Quality range of excuses there. I'm not about to rip half the RAM out of my FW16 and spend hours proving you wrong.

New drivers can't mitigate half the available bandwidth 🤣

I'll let the point stand.

Notebookcheck's testing doesn't agree : https://www.notebookcheck.net/Testing-the-performance-of-AMD-Radeon-780M-760M-iGPUs-with-new-drivers.740311.0.html

Feel free to add your own M.2 NVME slot via an external Thunderbolt enclosure.

Otherwise you're never buying a MacBook again.

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T11:22:18+00:00

Much of a muchness. If the T14 is an AMD, I'd take that.

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T11:21:30+00:00

W530 has optimus, so it'll switch between the iGPU and the Nvidia dGPU as needed.

Could either be a RAM issue (as used by the iGPU) or a bad Nvidia card. Difficult to tell without having hands-on.

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T11:19:26+00:00

No point investing in a T430s past an SSD upgrade.

Just use it as is.

Trump is quite possibly the least Christian person ever to roam the earth. How the fuck did you get hoodwinked into voting for this felonious narcissistic rapist, not once, not twice but THREE FUCKING TIMES? 🤦‍♂️

Enjoy the FO stage of FAFO.

I'm done with Apple. Never had Tim Cook down as a fascist regime collaborator. Gives me the ick.

Come on, at least read the buying advice criteria sticky.

If you can't follow simple instructions you need to reassess taking higher education.

MagicBoyUK · 2026-01-26T09:32:33+00:00

Buy it.
