No longer FS: ThinkPad W540

#1 Post by CharlieDog » Thu Mar 10, 2022 11:38 am

I have too many laptops to keep updated and maintained, so something must go. I bought this used as a backup traveling laptop and have hardly used it. Overall condition very good to excellent. It has more flutes and bells than I can appreciate.

UPDATE: I neglected to mention the laptop came with Windows 10 Pro. I have since upgraded to Windows 11 Pro. Yes, I know it's not supported, but-with a minor change to a file in the Media Creation tool-it installed without a problem and has been receiving regular updates.

i7-4800MQ @ 2.7 MHz 4 cores-8 threads
Samsung 860 EVO 250 GB SATA III SSD (5.2 TB written per Samsung Magician)
KingSpec M.2 250 GB SSD, not sure if SATA II or III, it filled an empty WLAN slot
24 GB DDR3L RAM (2 8's, 2 4's)
NVIDIA Quadro K1100m dedicated GPU
15.6" screen, 16:9, Resolution 2880 x 1620
Two chargers included, one Lenovo, one non-Lenovo, both fully functional. I had one hooked up to the wall behind my desk and not readily accessible, the other in the traveling case (case not included)

If I've missed something, please feel free to ask. Pictures available on request.

Asking $250 including CONUS shipping. PayPal preferred. TIA

Bump for lower price, I cannot find a way to edit the original post. Now $225 including CONUS shipping. Will only ship to CONUS, sorry.

To edit your own post:
In original Forum-version, there's a blob with edit on the right underneath that post.

In the newer version you see a bubble with a short pencil, left of your username in that post.
The pencil will 'lighten' up when you put your mouse over it, then click it.

Bump for Windows 11 Pro installation. For someone who doesn't want to buy a new computer or spend a lot of money, this might be a possibility to consider.

Upon further review, I have decided not to sell this laptop at this time. I am having too much fun with Windows 11 on it and want to see how it performs in the long haul.
