WTB: Good motherboard for T40 2373-91U

#1 Post by wreckdiver » Wed Nov 05, 2008 7:11 am

I have a T40 2373-91U that I fried the motherboard trying to do the GPU reflow fix. What are my options for replacement motherboards? SXGA+ is a must.

R50p or 51p maybe - see the thread in the T4x section - the one with "alternate fix for GPU problem"
ex: T30, TR451, TR453, R51, R52, X40, X60, R61, T400
X200 - P8600 2.66Ghz, 3G, 250G
G50-70 - 3558U 2.4Ghz, 4G, 1T

Any of the T40/T41/T42 boards will drive SXGA+ screens. The SXGA+ machines came with faster graphics processors, but unless you are a game-player, you probably won't notice the difference. I usually have some in stock, but the only T40 board I have right now is already listed on eBay. I do have a T42p board that is more expensive, but it is in a 15" case right now. I have 15 boards coming in late this week or early next week. Most are T42, but there is one T41 and 3 T40s. I need to test them and I'm not sure what graphics processors there are. Most are probably the basic Ati 7500, but at least one of the T42 boards is on an SXGA+ machine. I also have one R51 machine coming, if you want to consider that option. PM me if you want to discuss.
