  • OP can you please comment on what sort of battery heatlh we can expect? Thanks.

    • +1

      Hi,

      Battery health will be 70%-90%

      • most likely more closer to the 70% than 90%.

  • what's powershare

    • You can use that the usb port to charge your external device.

  • Looks like ram is upgradable to 32gb single slot

  • Does it ship with the original power supply?

    • +1

      Yes, original dell power supply

      • Is that a barel type charger, or type C? IPS screen?

  • -1

    What's the condition of the item please?

    • Fully tested in excellent condition.

  • Can you use usbC to charge the laptop?

    • +1

      yes. But supplied charger will be barrel.

  • +1

    OP, can I ask if this has scratches and the camera is working? If with scratches, how bad are the scratches? Also if I buy RAM upgrade, do you install them before delivery? Thanks.

    • Awaiting for reply… if they install extra RAM before delivery … happy to buy it 😁

      • RAM is very easy to install on this model, assuming there is a free slot.

        Not like the Surface Pro which is sealed, or the 7390 2-in-1 version, which has soldered RAM.

    • Hi, please check you eBay message, and the description. They are generally in excellent condition.

  • +2

    I bought the same model in an earlier deal from them. Really happy with the laptop.

    • Does this model have an IPS screen and is it bright?

      • +1

        Not sure about IPS but screen is bright. I mainly use it for streaming, browsing.

  • only 90 day warranty.

  • No thunderbolt?

    • USB-C port with data transfer and display, not thunderbolt.

    Going to repaste this as a PSA from the last 8th Gen thread (doesnt just apply to this model or manufacturer, its an Intel 8th Gen chip thing - i own both an 8th Gen Laptop and Desktop personally and recommend at least repasting, i do it on any PC's/laptops that come my way for repair, that are more than year old, and regardless of CPU)…..expanded it a bit to hopefully explain better, as theres nothing wrong with, and i feel no shame, using older gear, ive been in IT 35 years and do not have to have the "latest" to work efficiently

    So, be aware (but not alarmed):

    Anything with an 8th Gen laptop CPU in it is going to thermal throttle, even if you re-(thermal)paste it (which you should do anyways)

    Mitigations:

    1) Repaste the CPU (which you should do anyways as it dries out and migrates off the chip over time - and VERY rare to find any secondsies laptops or PC's being resold where this will have been done already). Most laptops will have a disassembly guide at either https://www.ifixit.com/Guide or via searching on youtube. You'll need to know your model info, usually on the laptop, either clearly visible on the unit top case or screen bezel, or on a label on bottom (or sometimes underneath the battery). Luckily most laptops just require the bottom of the case removed to access the heatsink and CPU. Desktop PC's are easier. Noctua NH-1 Thermal Compound (the older of the two formulas is my preferred, it doesnt migrate as much as the newer version) - worth every cent.

    2) Clean the exhaust fan(s) - critical on a laptop - use canned compress air, and where there may be caked on dust, try a medium toothbrush with isopropyl alcohol. If youve already got access to the CPU as per guide suggestions above, no reason to skip this….

    3) Consider a laptop cooling pad - to elevate the base of the laptop higher off the surface you use it on. You do not need one with 3 USB powered fans (which may overburden and burn out a single USB port) and wanky lights, you just need to get more fresh air under the laptop.

    The 3 tips above will solve the most common overheating issues - getting heat out of the CPU, and out of the case

    4) For those willing to read documentation/experiment/fiddle:

    You can mitigate the high temps somewhat (but not the throttling completely - its the design limits) with these, in order of faffing about:

    Fan utilities:

    Dell: Possibly this (because Dell are terrible at letting you control fans:

    https://github.com/AaronKelley/DellFanManagement

    And for some other common (older laptops) For newer models, you may need to create your own profile with the tools included, not for novices:

    https://github.com/hirschmann/nbfc

    Other fan utilities may be available that are more or directly suitable for your device, by googling or searching github. The two above are just the most common i use, for older laptops…

    Undervolting:

    You can mitigate the high temps (but not the throttling completely, particularly the laptop chips, as they have a fixed 20W TDP limit from memory) with this to undervolt:

    https://www.techpowerup.com/download/techpowerup-throttlesto…

    Read the guide and baby steps when it comes to undervolting, NEVER try and blanket apply what other people may post in forums….

    Undervolting will often result in less heat, which of course reduces the worst of the throttling

    • +3

      Undervolting support was disabled by one of the Intel security patches years ago, for many chips in Dell machines. I'm not sure this still applies.

      • Yeah, its more of a general advice and as i dont personally buy Dell im sometimes not aware of these vendor specific issues

        Thanks for posting and making people aware this may affect

    • A very good guide. Note that Windows 11 messes with ThrottleStop.

      • I havent taken the plunge into the rollercoaster ride of bugs that are stickytaped together to form Windows 11 yet. Apart from a brief test here and there, once every 6 months, which never lasts more than 6 hours before i revert to sanity and Windows 10 :) The swearing quotient rapidly declines about the same time, oddly…

        I personally dont see me ever upgrading from Windows 10 on my 8th Gen laptop, and my desktop is not really affected (in large part due to being delidded and running on average about 8c above ambient, under a decent air cooler, pasted with Noctua paste - going to try PTM7950 for shizz and giggles now that the price has decreased after the Linus bump….throttling there is not going to be an issue)

        There are several ways around the Windows 11 nonsense, apparently, with PowerMonkey being the potentially best but also the most involved, and a relatively simple component "Virtualization Based Security" disabling being the easiest. Note the use of the word Security…

        But im not linking to either as its probably well beyond the scope of most users and in the case of VBS disabling a potential security hole

        If i do ever post again, ill be sure to add a caveat that the tool isnt effective out of the box on Windows 11.

        Thanks for the leads up!

        • +1

          I've been in IT for as long as you, starting with writing device drivers for NT 3.51 in 1995, and have exactly the same opinion of Windows 11. I suspect my future MS desktop experience will be a Windows 10 virtual machine running in Proxmox or a full Linux. I just want the OS to work and not have to fight it all the time.

          Thanks for the explanation and PowerMonkey tip.

  • got one thanks!! Too good to miss at this price for a basic office PC, me hopes

  • +1

    Just received mine, USB-C charging/display. 7 hour battery life, good screen, pretty neat and tidy all round, fingerprint scanner works and very light. Pretty happy with it.

  • Hi Max Computer team, I had purchased this laptop from you. It was working fine. But since yesterday it shows a blue screen recovery mode. Error code 0xc000000e. Pls suggest solution or exchange asap.

    • Goodluck… any update?
