Hiya, just finished some upgrades to my Lenovo ThinkPad T470, 32GB RAM, 1TB SATA SSD, 512GB NVME SSD, Intel AX210 WiFi 6E Card
Great machine!
Yeah its surprisingly pretty good!!! only tested minecraft on it so far but runs really well on it (after tweaks around 100’ish FPS) I really like it, also have a Dell Latitude E7470 but didn’t post cos they are virtually identical spec spec wise.
I have an T440S from 2013, I just wanted to know if it is worth upgrading?
It’s literally my first thinkpad, I’ve no idea about these things sorry :(
I had a thinkpad t440s and upgraded to a t470. I would do it again without hesitation.
Still using a t420 daily (not for heavy with though), and it’s fine. If you don’t have an SSD yet, that’s the first thing I’d change.
Looks great! Love that little Hello Kitty character in the terminal :3
how much are old thinkpads nowadays? im thinking of switching to one, really looks like they can hold up for 5 more years at a reasonable price
This is a 2017 Model (i5-3700U/HD 620) originally bought from a refurbisher on eBay UK for around £180 GBP with 256GB SSD and 16GB RAM, spent another £100 on the Upgrades (1x 1TB SATA SSD in the 2.5" Bay, 1x 512GB B + M Keyed NVME SSD in WWAN slot, 32GB (2x 16GB) RAM DDR4 SODIMMs and an Intel AX210 WiFi 6E Card, the latter three really cheaply from AliExpress, Primary Storage was from Amazon) also came with both batteries (Internal and external) which are 92% Capacity the thing looks hardly used
