FS Lenovo Thinkpad x220 FHD 1080p & Quad Cor CPU & Samsung SSD & 16 GB RAM

#1 Post by baseli95 » Sun Mar 14, 2021 7:37 pm

Hello everyone I am selling a modded Thinkpad x220

I will ship to UK based buyers only.

Selling for £450 for the people from this forum.

Ebay link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lenovo-Think ... 4726970632

If you want it shipped internationally please use the eBay link with a third party company that buys it from UK and ships it international.

I am selling this laptop due to the Linux Operating System incompatibility, which I require for my job.

Linux system can be run, but they require workarounds.

I have tested Windows 10 Operating System and it runs very well.

This Laptop was originally a Lenovo Thinkpad x220.

It has been modified and upgraded by ThinkPad enthusiasts.

The keyboard is United States Layout, see pictures from the eBay listing


This laptop is highly customisable.

You can upgrade yourself:

Storage

WIFI module

Display

Keyboard

Battery

RAM


BIOS are also unlocked, so you can tinker CPU voltages to optimise the performance.

I suggest only people with experience attempt this.


You will receive the laptop and the power adapter.


This Laptop's Specification:

Display: Samsung 13.3 inches FHD IPS 1080p

CPU: Intel i7-3612QE Quad Core with the base core at 2.10GHz with maxing at 3.10GHz

Storage Drive: 1x Samsung SSD 860 PRO 512GB and 1x LiteOn mSATA SSD 128GB

RAM: 16GB Memory

Battery: Lenovo 9 cell battery


Please ensure you have read all the following before considering buying this laptop:

The keyboard is United States Layout, see pictures. Windows 10 Home is pre-installed and it is not activated, you need your Windows activation key.

Caps lock LED does not light up when pressed, this is due to the Display upgrade.

As this laptop uses a custom BIOS to allow the quad-core CPU, do not try to use Lenovo BIOS.

As this laptop has the FHD Display mod, it is only possible to extend the display in Windows by pressing the Windows key + p and then selecting "Second screen only."

For the same reason, brightness control works only in specific cases. If you have good ThinkPad knowledge you won't have any issues in making it work. It is by default in full brightness.

I have not tested the following but presume they do no work:

Finger Print Scanner does not work (I was not able to find compatible drivers for Windows 10)

The laptop integrated dock does not work.

Bluetooth does not work (I was not able to find compatible drivers for Windows 10)


If you want more pictures or have questions, please request it I will do my best.
