Dell Precision M4800 best GPU and upgrades?

[ncurses]

Hello everyone, i have been eyeing a Dell Precision M4800 on Facebook Marketplace for quite some time, before i pull the trigger i would like to know what is the hardest this machine can be pushed? AFAIK when i last looked into it the best GPU someone managed to put in this was a T2000, has this changed? Besides that if anyone could enlighten me on display options i would be very happy. Thanks!

There hasn't been any major news since then. The latest confirmed working upgrade is the HP T2000 MXM. I didn't risk using the 4060 from x-vsion - it runs too hot and has too much power. A 3050 6GB option from X-Vision has recently become available in MXM-A form, but I haven’t ordered it yet, although it will most likely work.
As for displays, it depends on the connector on your motherboard - LVDS or EDP?

as far as i know all non 4K display models are LVDS correct? in that case it would probably be LVDS.

No, not necessarily - there was also a model with an FHD EDP panel. To be sure, you need to check what kind of display is installed in the laptop.
