[@sairamareddy8052]

Much needed video.recently got one.

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Awesome, good luck with yours!

[@kasp9290]

Hey, i am also thinking about buying a p52. What are your thoughts on the laptop? do you recommend it?

[@sairamareddy8052]

@@kasp9290 so far it's great, yes it's bit heavy and the hdmi ports, charging ports are behind rather than sides.... I see myself using this for atleast 4 yrs. Battery backup you could except around 3.5 hrs on efficiency mode. Mine has 80 percent battery health.

Got 1 a few months ago with a p2000 and i7 8850h. Repasted, undervolted. Great work and gaming machine and underrated feature its replacable charging ports make this a machine I will keep for years to come along with the removable battery. Edit: Upgraded to a P53 with an RTX 4000. Best decision I made and hope the new owner of my P52 shows it some love. I play games more often now so i needed something modern at least

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

I would use it as a daily driver if it wasn't so chonky in my backpack. I love it, but I will likely end up selling my personal one as I do not use it often enough. It needs some love.

Thank you!

Nice review :) thanks

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Thanks for watching :)

[@zingwilder9989]

Thank you for showing the dissection of that unit. My knowledge of laptop repair is pretty much non-existent. I never needed to use one for my work requirements, prior to retirement. However, I bought my wife a couple, several years ago, to surf the internet and play card games. When problems began to develop with them, I would just wipe the drive and take the device to e-waste.

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Yes, more than likely you had functional laptops that just needed some service. Better to learn late than never at all!

[@zingwilder9989]

@@HaisteComputerRepair I'm certain that you're right. However, they were so slow and inadequate, I didn't want to bother with them any longer. Personally, at this stage in my life, I 'll only build and use desktops.

great video

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Thank you :)

@@HaisteComputerRepair would you know how long this laptop would last if i bought it late 2024?

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

@@shiyun08 I would say quite a while. The main thing to think about is size, weight, and preference for display panel. The CPU/GPU will be pretty solid for a lot of work. For the cost/benefit.

[@shiyun08]

@@HaisteComputerRepair ok thanks⚓

Watching this on my p52 with i7 processor.. still kicking for CAD works. But not that smooth for the latest version of autodesk apps like revit 2021.

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

I am not that familiar with Autodesk, but curious. Is it more CPU or GPU dependent?

[@w5swuneo532]

Excellent review man 😀,can you recommend p52 for trading and maybe 3 external monitors.What's the best options ,every suggestion is welcome 🤗 , thanks

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Yeah definitely a P52 would work well. Good luck.

[@AkhileshSrivastav-n1p]

I have the same specs , except the processor which is i7 8th gen (h series) is it same to xeon ?

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

The Xeon has slightly faster base and turbo CPU speeds and also has the slightly better UHD P630 integrated graphics (on top of whatever dedicated Quadro GPU you have). Also, the Xeon CPU supports ECC memory, if that matters in your use case.

[@arip7112]

Hi Haiste, Would you please recommend which one is better P52 i7 8th gen P2000 or P53 i7 9th gen T1000?

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Well, the P53 will support faster RAM speeds and otherwise I am thinking that performance will be similar. What is the cost different between the two you are looking at?

[@arip7112]

@@HaisteComputerRepair P52 i7 g8 quadro P1000 : USD 450 P53 i7 g9 quadro T1000 : USD 570 Both at same 16GB RAM & 512GB SSD

[@trollfacemafiagaming6036]

Would this be able to play cs 2 at 100 ?

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Probably with adjusted settings yes

[@ismailchongera9812]

How much this pc?

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

I bought this several months ago, so check eBay and that will give you an idea. I purchased from my provincial gov't surplus, so prices vary.

[@SkymaxxCool]

i request p14 p70

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

Hopefully I get some, I'd like to check those out as well!

[@SkymaxxCool]

@HaisteComputerRepair Ok, i'll wait

[@2DAnimax]

Too hard to repaste

[@HaisteComputerRepair]

I am used to the work, so it's not so bad for me. Kind of an interesting challenge.
