Hi i have M6600 with 2920XM and M8900. I have question about temperature. In power manager i have quite (silent) with 40C on CPU and 56C on GPU and funs are on. It this normal, because i hate noise from fans when i finding something on internet. Thank for answer.

 

That is pretty normal.

When i plug ac adapter icon with bolt inside battery is on but after 2-3 seconds is off.
Do you have any solution for this situation? Thanks for answer.

 

I'm not real certain about these things so I'm just throwing a couple ideas out there.

Is the 240W brick a Delta or a Flextronics brand?

What shape is your battery in, wear level?

 

Hi I do not know what kind of brand AC adapter is it.
Battery is new. I received this battery today.

Here is some pictures:

Battery is normal in BIOS, but AC adapter is unknown and I think this is problem, why my battery cannot be charged.

Please help me. I tried some tips on internet, but nothing help me. Tanks for answer.

 

I think your Power Supply is probably the problem. I have two Flextronics 240W and haven't had any trouble with them over three years. Some have had problems with the Delta Electronics (second white text from bottom in black background" which is what yours is.

 

I tested this adapter with D830 and E6420. I saw 240W in bios, but with M6600 each adapter is unknown (65W or 90W). Power jack cabel is ok. I tested and last to pins blue and black was 4.20V - 4.24V. Where is problem!? Could it be motherboard problem?

Thanks for answer.

 

Hi, I would like to buy a second hand K4000m in ebay to replace the Quadro 4000m that smoked recently in my M6600.
Can someone advise me on the queries below:

1. Did the Optimus still working in my M6600 when I replaced Quadro 4000m with K4000m ? I hear that the K4000m is kelper based and it design for Ivybridge. Does it work with the Sandy Bridge?
2. Do I need to replace/modify the X bracket for the card ?
3. Will the existing heat sink fits the new K4000m?
4. Is there anything I need to worry about? (I m a newbie!!)

Thanks

 

1. It should, as geforce cards (680m and 670mx) worked nicely reported by other people
2. Nop, what you have is perfect and will fit nicely
3. Yes
4. Just double check you used thermal pads of the right size on all the right places. Basicaly move em from q4m to q k4m to cover all the same bits and pieces.
