HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
triturbo replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
There are 3 types of wick inside the pipes - grooved, meshed and sintered. The third one works best (works upside-down as well) and you can find such on the market, but you have to go through a lot of listings to find them. Have you found suitable ones? Long time ago the only available were 50x50x3mm - not really suitable as they are pretty thick and it will be difficult to mount them as there were no screw holes. I thought that it's more like 100W and that depends on the vBIOS and like the Pxxxx series they lack vBIOS chip. Have you sourced the vBIOS and the chip?- 77 replies

You can find various length and diameter heatpipes on AliExpress. Then you’ll need pipe bending tool and then you’ll need to flatten them with a big metal pipe or something like that. Then there’s a low temperature solder paste to solder the whole thing. Good luck!- 77 replies

Good luck with the RTX GPU, looking forward to it. I think that combined CPU and GPU pipes would do better ONLY if it’s taken into account the total power consumption and then some. Shared/combined heatsinks get bad reputation because most of the times they are calculated for less than that. In your case you can distribute the heat from the CPU to the optical bay where you can put a big fan and a big radiator. Then again if you don’t plan on overclocking you might split them and the CPU could use the stock CPU and GPU radiators, while the GPU could take advantage of the entire optical bay. That’s my take on the cooling.- 77 replies

Glad to see you around 🙂 I’ll give it some time, since I do want 920XM, we’ll see how it would go. Sadly Pascal so far is still a no-go. I do have a few more things to try, since I was a bit off past couple of years.

The free version of Lightworks outputs 720p only, so I'm not sure whether or not you are going to like it. And then, there's this: In any case looking forward to your video.- 77 replies

It’s probably me, but I can’t find the zip file with the vBIOSes. I don’t know the reason behind the lack of fan control but I’m relying on custom made external solution and it works great.- 77 replies

You might source eDP parts from DELL M6600. I think it has the same connector and the cable might be of use. I say might, because I think that it has color board which would make the cable shorter and the output might be custom (i.e. not eDP display standard). You have to double check that with multimeter and the schematics in hand. Good luck!

That's nice, but how do you made it to run the BIOS chip, since I know these require some modding, or it came like that? I have a D revision myself and I'm contemplating on modding it and make it run in my machine. Which one works best, or all of them? So it works with the DreamColor, that's good to know. Some nice mods. Which DAC you have used, does it has ESS Sabre in there? I made a mod of external sound card using eGPU stuff and Creative SondBlaster AE-9 which was working, but then fried it during additional modding. I'm not sure I want to go that way again. It was awesome, but also made my laptop a desktop, so I'm looking for something more integrated. I'm using Creative SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio notebook now, but I have other plans for the ExpressCard, so that's why I'm looking at the options. Yes, the stock speakers are terrible. I'm planing on modding them as well. Good luck with these!- 77 replies

Great work @Mashcar! I have a few questions - which revision is your P5200 (picture of the board would be nice) and which vBIOS you are using? Do you use the DreamColor screen? Where did you get the soldering paste (RL-404)? Thank you and keep up the great work!- 77 replies

Price drop. Open to offers. -
In 2020 I used an N-GAGE Classic (the taco) for about a month or more, because I broke my then main phone. I also have another N-GAGE, as well as 2 N-GAGE QDs (one silver edition), N93 and N95 8GB. As for network, 2G is still a thing around here, can't tell for how long though.

Rocking a HP ZR30w. Got it for the 10bits and 2560:1600 16:10 display. What makes it shine compared to other contemporary (similarly priced, since I got it second hand) 30" monsters is lack of OSD. Well that is a bit of a drawback but it more than compensates with the reduced input lag, again compared to other 30 inchers.

That was the plan, but things changed "a bit". Also these 16gigs would've been more than enough for 1200p, hell even for 1600p (my external). Oh well. Thanks! Thank you very much!
