  1. I have installed a fingerprint sensor on my M4800, it is recognized everywhere, but when I try to set up a fingerprint in Windows - it doesn't register it.
  2. Hmmm, that's weird, reminds me of my second monitor on my PC, but in that case it was related to capacitors going bad. Not sure about that to be honest, I don't have that issue on my M4800. Can't test Optimus off because I have an LA-9771P mobo so no eDP.
  3. Ye, it is not consistent, you have to sweat really hard ahahaha I would say it is my best, idk what conditions can force me to react this fast in a real scenario to be honest
  4. I've been on this forum for some time already and I have only noticed the introduction topic now, it is better late than never, sooo... Hello, it is me, MELOCODI, or Dima. I have discovered this forum back when I had to get myself something to replace a PC I had at home before I was forced to leave my country due to ongoing war. I have ended up buying Dell Precision M4800 and this forum has been insanely helpful for me. With this forum I was able to maintain my enthusiasm, because I was doing some modding (sometimes it was some slav-jank engineering, but it is not stupid if it works ahahaah). With help of this forum and it's members I finally have a machine that is suitable for me and now I will definitely get it close to perfection, all thanks to you guys.
  5. I am still hunting for that CPU
  6. I've managed to get a docking station, yay
  7. https://www.ebay.ie/itm/285018113824 Here)
  8. I've ordered i7 4980HQ, now I am waiting for it to arrive, I will try to put it into my M4800, I'll stay in touch. I think it should work.
  9. Idk, not a case for me, it is still better then the modern stuff you can buy, at least where I live right now. Even with all upgrades it is better than anything in it's price range + it is easy and nice to service it. Even in my situation I think that it was a good decision.
  10. Really? I have only seen one mention of T2000 being bought, and it was on this forum.
  11. That's good, even though my CPU fan was originally from AVC, my GPU fan is from Delta. Delta CPU fan (at least for me, idk) is not quieter, but the noise itself is much more tolerable, it doesn't have a high pitch, and you can really hear air pushing through a heatsink, so it won't disturb you during the night.
  12. Some updates (p.s. I hate this Beats logo shadow left from a previous owner)
  13. Ordered a Delta CPU fan for my M4800 recently, great stuff. Lithuanian shop on eBay that has those fans in stock - https://www.ebay.ie/itm/285018113824
  14. It is completely locked out, I think only VBIOS mod will help, but I don't remember anyone modifying a VBIOS on Turing GPUs
  15. My top priority goal is to get a mutant i7 4980HQ
  16. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003366309487.html There it is, it is not available right now on a page, but you can ask the seller, that's how I got it
  17. That's a great idea, I agree, hopefully I will manage to find LA-9772P motherboard one day, because it is a budget build, I think the best way is to find someone who has a broken laptop, so I can get it for cheap (to rock that 120 Hz GSYNC display). I also think about replacing fans with some Delta fans.
  18. This is my daily driver, it went through a lot of stuff, I never used a laptop as a daily driver before. I've got it for cheap (200€), because the seller was open about damage that this laptop has (it is mostly cosmetic).

  19. Well, I am not really sure about it right now, because I haven't flashed it yet, even though I have a CH341. I am not really in a place where I can take apart this laptop completely, the BIOS chip is hidden on the lower portion of a motheboard, so it is not the easiest thing to get to. So I am trying to flash it internally, I will probably reach out today.
