    M6600 owners, please, please upload some videos of your keyboard flex during typing. So far there is only one video on YouTube which is not so relevant I would say. It seems the guy presses too hard for normal typing and only in one part of the keyboard.

    I am planning on buying a refurbished but it is for sale in another city, which makes it a bit complicated to travel there and check the keyboard. I expect that different users will experience different degrees of flex, but still, I've read several complains about the keyboard flex on M6600.

    Thank you

    They all flex in some area, it had to do with the fact that some part under the keyboard is hollow. I just stack some clear tape under the keyboard and it helps. Don't really have anything to do with the keyboard itself.

    I use my M6600 every day and have never noticed any keyboard flex. I am very happy with the keyboard.

    M4600 keyboard looks the same as M6600. Found this on youtube for those who are looking on this forum for keyboard flex:

    Sadly, the seller of M6600 and me couldn't agree on some terms and I won't be getting M6600.

    The M6600 I want to buy is in another city and the seller allowed me to use Teamviewer for looking around. The benchmark he started for me is "Unigine Heaven Benchmark 4.0" which I don't know how much it stresses the gpu or even if it's relevant to my next question.
    The screenshot below was taken 15 minutes after the benchmark ended. Since I was not near the laptop I have no idea if it was blowing hot air or the fan was running at full speed. If I am not mistaking, I have checked the temperatures several times while connected with Teamviewer and the VRM were always at 111 degrees which made me relax somewhat attributing these values to missinterpreted sensor readings.

    Should I worry about the high VRM temps showing?

    One of my coworkers had quadro 4000m and had hw info reporting same temps. It was working fine for entire 3 years he had it. We replaced it with m6100 for extra performance and placed that card into another machine which is alo reporting same temps.
    Ive did finger tips test of the quadro card by turning on machine with its guts open and placed small zalman heatsink on the die and vrms were not even close to that temp. My guestimate was at least 3-4 times lower than that.
