Possible upgrade: T2400 XGA FireGL V5200 to T7600 UXGA?

#1 Post by gaphic2 » Tue Apr 08, 2008 2:38 pm

The original machine is a 15" T60 2007-FE2, which is based on a 2007-5DG.

Is anyone familiar with the motherboard revision? If it's 3, I should be good to go with a T7600 CPU, an SXGA+/UXGA inverter card and a good 1600x1200 FFS LCD.

Or not?

I can't answer the CPU part of your question, but you'll definitely be able to run any 15" FlexView on that machine with no issues, be it SXGA+ or UXGA.

Hope this helps.

With mb rev 3 T7600 should be a drop in upgrade. I haven't seen any T60p 4:3 V5200/V5250 that were not rev 3.

I upgraded from the T2500 to the T7600 without any trouble.

Thanks for you replies. I need to put in an SXGA+/UXGA inverter card as well for this to work, I think - the XGA inverter card is a different FRU and slightly cheaper, so I'm assuming it's a different one.
