Hey man ok the videos old you probably don't remember much about ur project but I own a g50-45 Lenovo and I was wondering do I need to replace the whole mother board just to get better graphics
for that laptop yeap you also need to get the rights heatsink. the lenovo is nice but can only get you so far. also motherboard is not cheap. at the time of filming i got the board for aprox 40 us dllr. the usual price for the same board is 80 us dllr for the dedicated gpu . the intel variant is even more expensive like 170 dllrs for i7 and nvidia gt. this is not including heatsink which is hard to find. if you want a cheap and good laptop with dedicated gpu look for a dell presicion or a hp elitebook/zbook some cost the same as the upgraded motherboard for the same price. aprox 130 us dllr for a working one look for one with a quadro card or a firepro card. i have a precision m6600 i should make a vid on it is better than the lenovo for the age with firepro gpu
Valió la pena el cambio? En mi caso tengo este modelo con 1gb de vram, pero siento que sin mejorar el procesador no tiene mucho sentido cambiar la mother para una mejor gpu
Pues depende de cómo lo mires en mi caso si ya que la placa no me costó mucho. La placa original no traía gpu solo cpu. Y Si hay otras placas más potentes pero al precio que están no valen la pena. Si consigues una barata vale la pena
the original motherboard is ACLU5/ACLU6 NM-A281 AM6410 there are like 5 different variants of the same motherboard with different specs. i just updated to the one For Lenovo Z50-75 G50-75M. basically i turn my g50-45 to a g50-75m
I believe is 16 gb. I used to have 16gb at 1600mhz ripjaws. But swap the sticks for 8gb 2400mhz. the problem is that the bios is locked and can't overclock the ram. So the ram defaults to 1600mhz. I have never tried more than 16gb.
i bought mine on ebay just look for g50 motherboard and look at the pictures and see if they have the gpu ship. it cost me around 65. you will need the heatsink for it. they also have them on aliexpress but takes time to arrive. the motherboard is ACLU5 / ACLU6 NM-A281. like i said in the video there is a lot of g50 models all use the same motherboard but with different specs, but most of them are interchangeable. the one i got is the same but it jus has the gpu.
Hi write from Venezuela, I have same laptop, 6gb ram original HDD worth original partition, window 8.1, but I can upgrade 8gb ram or 16gb and SSD, and... Recommend use pear Os Linux distro a , very fast distro, very very beautiful and easy to use... One question, have 6gb but the system only use 4.88gb,.lost 1.20gb
Kinda. you can swap the motherboard with a different processor. In the video the motherboard i swap had the same proccesor but with the gpu because I found it cheap on eBay. but I know there are some motherboards with the a-10 7300 + GPU. Some have i5 with gt820m. There are a lot of variants of that motherboard The thing is they are not cheap enough to justify. They are around 100 dllrs plus heatsinks are a bit hard to find and add cost to the swap. If you want a cheap upgradable laptop look for a Dell m4600/ m6600. They are a bit old but better than the g50
Sorry for complaining, but the video kept jumping all over, and your the audio showed that you were speaking on the fly with poor diction and no planning whatever. I watched just over half and had to stop as up to that point it was a waste of my time.

i have the same laptop and does it take antoher cpu

What was the motherboard you swapped too
the original motherboard is ACLU5/ACLU6 NM-A281 AM6410 there are like 5 different variants of the same motherboard with different specs. i just updated to the one For Lenovo Z50-75 G50-75M. basically i turn my g50-45 to a g50-75m
Hi, I have the same laptop as you is it possible to get greater specs from a different motherboard from the g50 family that works.
Yes. Most of the g50 family use the same laptop body. So it's possible to swap the motherboard. Just keep in mind they do have different heatsinks
Whats the max RAM that this laptop can support?
I believe is 16 gb. I used to have 16gb at 1600mhz ripjaws. But swap the sticks for 8gb 2400mhz. the problem is that the bios is locked and can't overclock the ram. So the ram defaults to 1600mhz. I have never tried more than 16gb.
bro,how to purchase this motherboard? any link or specification to check for?
i bought mine on ebay just look for g50 motherboard and look at the pictures and see if they have the gpu ship. it cost me around 65. you will need the heatsink for it. they also have them on aliexpress but takes time to arrive. the motherboard is ACLU5 / ACLU6 NM-A281. like i said in the video there is a lot of g50 models all use the same motherboard but with different specs, but most of them are interchangeable. the one i got is the same but it jus has the gpu.
@@FENIX3233 can you share a link for the motherboard with GPU?
just search on eBay the following number 193491954006. it should be the only result. youtube doesn't like external links...
@@FENIX3233 could u please tell me how to get this number from motherboard
What would be the absolute best option out of all the motherboards for the g50? Which one is the best for overall performance.
