I can't believe how effortlessly you got the case back on. That thing is a pain.

[@gummykangaroo]

WHat RAM do you have installed? I read that the MB has problems with micron ICs of the Ram so you need to buy either Hynix or Samsung ICs. I saw Corsair Vengeance sticks but i'm not sure what ICs are on it. What is your experience?

[@nguyhen4wd]

What about the slot for wifi, that tiny pc need an external antenna ? great video

[@hazensmedia]

There is the m.2 wifi, behind the sata ssd

[@hazensmedia]

Can we change the fan?

What is the RAM capacity and SSD storage capacity on this pc? Also, do you know if I could install Linux OS on it instead of Windows?

[@ComputerizedCanada]

Hi, thanks for asking.
For RAM, it's 32GB max, DDR4 2133. So 16GB stick x2. You can install faster DDR4 but they will be clocked down to 2133.
As far as SSD storage, I am not aware of any.
And yes, you can install Linux on this.

Hello maybe you can help me. I have a choice between m900 and m910q everything seems the same except one comes with windows 10 other 11, same price

[@louietuna8091]

The Win 10 has one less pin and cannot upgrade. However, I chose that one because it had Win 10 Pro and I do not like Win 11s architecture.

[@yokossbm]

Would you know any reccomendation for cpu upgrade?

[@ComputerizedCanada]

Hi,
According to Lenovo's own spec sheet, you can go up to Core i7-6700T

[@sos.gamers]

@@ComputerizedCanada i think you can install the i9 version too

[@dusanmilovic7421]

Good

[@ComputerizedCanada]

Thanks

[@alexandrbig6825]

Support it non t intel cpu, i3-6100 or i5-6500?

[@ComputerizedCanada]

I wouldn't try non-T CPUs. May have over heating issues.

[@yvonchicoine7176]

no memory and speaker not connected lol

[@AlexisSLO]

No new thermal paste?? Nope,...

[@ComputerizedCanada]

It was just a demonstration of taking the PC apart. I try to leave the thermal paste part out. It always sparks some kind of criticism no matter what I do, how much paste to use etc.... Or in this case, not do :P
