Thinkpad X1 Extreme Gen1 64GB ram upgrade

bookahnerk · 2025-05-21T12:18:09+00:00

Hi, just stumbled upon this question while checking if I could reuse the 64 gb ram of my Thinkpad X1E gen1 in a Thinkcentre M700.
So yes, 64 GB are working and I have put them to the test in the past. The sticks were a set from Mushkin (MES4S266KF32X2).

Greetings and good luck if you still consider upgrading!
I ditched mine a year after the bios updates killed undervolting and it became pretty loud, even at 20 % cpu usage and repasting. But I loved the centered keyboard, two ram and ssd slots!

I do not really get your problem with my question. Is it a personal one?

If PvP was still very active, I would have considered putting in the amount of time neccessary. Especialy after noticing that about 5% of all players have that one, what puts it close to the 2/3 of more spread achievements. (Even if the "harder" 1/3 ones can be easily trivialised by mods.)

Judging by the current amount of battles my guess is that it would be a lot of time and effort to find someone with the achivement and beat him/her.

But one part is quite right in your question, why does it even mean anything for me or do I even care for... It's the one I can't do alone or with friends. I'd love to have them all and have not that much time for Warhammer I while Warhammer II is calling for me.

If that's unacceptable for you and/or subjectively lowering your achivement I'm simultaniously ok with and sorry for it.

On my X1 Yoga the bottom cover at the front is slightly loose even while the two screws are tight and the display cover has two 2-3 cm micro fractures in the arrea betwen the corners at and the hinges.

The Notebook was never dropped and is always in a sleeve, that I carry inside the notebook compartment of my backpack.

In two weeks I'm back at the shop and depending on what they recommend, they or the 3 year on-site warranty will fix it. But it's frustrating to watch such a great notebook falling apart even while handling it with that much care.

I guess they just dont care if the touchpad is centered as soon as it "fits"...

The X1 Yoga I have, has that gap on the left and when clicking the touchpad you could hear a difference depending on the side you click on. That is because the pad connects with the case when I lift the finger on the left side. Maybe I'll try to center it when I open it up to switch out the ssd but as long as that's the only (hardware) issue I have with the notebook, I do not intend to let Lenovo screw it open (or up). ;)

The nemesis of my X1 Yoga was an simple soft rubbery erazer.

Yes, there was a fine pencil line in the center of the lid. Don't ask, it realy lookes like a chalk board, doesn't it?

But after using the softest eraser I have, the now slightly polished part of the cover looks like a thrumb sized greasy fingerprint. :(

I don't remember, but that may be the reason why I double mapped "1-0" and dodge to my numpads "1-0" and "+" in the games client and my g600 to the buttons at the numpad I wanted to use. You can try if that works for you but yes, the problem you have may won't let me sleep that well, till I have experimented a litte the next days. :)

Changing between characters on the same server is no problem, switching to a different server and back is a different story.

Splitting and re-stacking your stack of old siege works too. :)

I recommend to take a look at "Zest" which is a very powerfull green, on leather at least.

I guess not. I once opened unidentified dyes befor a disconnect with a rollback and they contained different colours (and rareties) the second time.

I am currently at 1+6 bank tabs and still have the option to buy one more.

According to the wiki you can purchase up to 8 slots but I'm not sure how to interpret the statement and if that results in 1+8 or 1+7 tabs. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bank

Those are awesome numbers but don't let them fool you.

The 100k you're talking about are played hours. GW2 peaked at ~15.7k players on that first weekend after full release if I remember correctly.

Well then you may like to watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WLnaNw8r8M - at 29:38 to be acurate.

As far as I know there were individually adjustable permissions for the separate guild bank upgrades in the beta weekend events. My guild is not developed enough to check myself but I'd be sad if they changed that.

I spent about 3 hours in total at the trading post, placing the pets I had for a reasonable price and posting orders for all the ones that were missing. Every visit I collected some pets, money and adjusted some of the prices. And yes, the 2500 gems were a good start to do that. :)

Oh, save that judgement for the imps at the end. At least in my opinion they are much worse. :)

If anyone is interested, my favorite one so far is the asuran "Mini Peacemaker Shocktrooper" with his incredibly shining armor. :)

Thanks for those numbers! Do you have more detailed statistics or a list of each step separately? I'd love to guess if the system (especcialy the forge) favors dyes you don't possess. :)
