Hello all, you may have seen my other recent post about wanting to buy a Lenovo Thinkpad P71 (which I still am looking for)
Also if anyone is parting out, I would also like to buy a Lenovo Thinkpad Specific P5000 MXM card, In case I come across a lower spec unit.
I see plenty of Dell P5000 cards for sale on ebay, but honestly I am unsure about doing the swap because of the Whitelisting issues/ flashing the Vbios unless any of y'all have any experience with that or transplanting non Lenovo Specific cards. As it stands I cannot find the correct Lenovo specific Vbios for the P5000.
Willing to learn, or buy. Please let me know!

Re: WANT TO BUY Lenovo Specific P5000 MXM GPU
I just read your post about a P71, but you will gain a big power boost if you have an HX CPU.
The rendering power on my MSI Raider GE78 was much much more faster than the Dell Precision 7730 w/ a P4200 GPU and Xeon E-2176m.
I spent about $1200 for the MSI about a year ago, and the 7730 was about $1100 (three years ago) after parts needed to fix it.
