So far biggest available on the market are 9-cell 6600 mAh wide batteries (aftermarket), and HP HSTNN-OB59, sometimes (incorrectly) called HP-TV08 (only used ones I could find - HP sadly stopped manufacturing them as it seems). Battery life: I'm in the middle of sourcing second battery. So yay, it's perfectly possible to have 32 GB of DDR3(L) RAM - as long as the owner has bottomless pockets, that is. RAM: It supports both DDR3 and DDR3L on higher voltage, and automatically loads first XMP profile: I was able to use 1866 MHz memory on one set (and dropped to 1333MHz on another), and it even supports 16GB modules.

display: I've managed to connect FHD 1920x10x1200 15" displays, without mounting of course, so given availability of dual-channel cable it should be perfectly doable to upgrade screen to those resolutions: and as soon as I source one (I'm hell-bent on glossy IPS or VA panel) I'm going to post update here. Of course I didn't expect anything else, but for the record's sake I checked. ODD: I verified that two Liteon and NEC BD-RW and BD-RAM drives work flawlessly. I strongly suggest staying with 35W part, since the 45W tends to throttle - the cooling system is more than enough for 35W but just under comfortable spot for 45W CPU. CPU: Perhaps, most important finding, both Core i7-3820QM and 3612QM work! I couldn't get my hands on 3840QM or Extreme i7 parts, they are far too expensive and rare to buy or borrow even for testing. I have found reports that ExpressCard slot works better for that purpose (wihout the need to disassemble the laptop every time).

mPCIe TV tuner card works (it's lacking antenna and other cables, but OS asked for drivers and it was recognised!), and eGPU adapter works too, but in very limited form - I couldn't get anything faster than PCIe x1 gen1 to work. Still, Samsung mSATA 850EVO, at 1 TB capacity worked fine, which gives perspective of outfitting this laptop with total 5TB of flash storage - 1TB in mSATA format, and two 2.5" disks in HDD slot and ODD tray with adapter. mPCIe: When pulled out, the outside mPCIe slot perfectly supports mSATA disks, but only on SATA-2 speeds. NMEA tracker works, but I couldn't force Google Maps or Earth (Pro) to read location, but may be some OS/software setting - I didn't have time to investigate. In Europe, that means heavily congested HSPA bands of original card. WWAN: There is WWAN whitelisting, sadly, and it is very unfortunate, because much to my disappointment the LTE modem that is allowed by HP supports only LTE bands 4 and 17, exclusive in USA, so it's useless in anywhere else in the world. Still waiting for 7260-AC, but there should be nothing stopping these from working. WiFi: There is no WiFi whitelisting: I tried about 25 different cards, including some exotic Attansic and Widcomm AB cards, I found even WiFi/WiMax adapter, and it booted up (of course no antenna, so I didn't check signal). It has single channel LVDS cable!!! I have no idea how does this work.īoth came with HM76 chipset, so no vPro. The one with Core i5 has TPM 1.2 module (plus), and 1600x900 screen. I understand that half of it isn't officially supported, but I'll take the risk, as long as it works.ĮDIT: I decided to edit the main post body. FHD or HD+ IPS display, if there are compatible spares (with correct cable, of course)? Only spares I can find cheaply come with it - will it work (does it have the connector), or if not, will the keyboard still work? Keyboard with a trackpoint? This requires some explaining: Originally it came with really badly dirty keyboard (not spilled, just unsavagably greased, like doritos mixed with butter massaged into it), and it lacked the trackpoint. Intel 7260-AC WiFi/BT card? Previous model I had had WIFI whitelisting, this model probably doesn't, but I'd like to check. HP LT2523 LTE mPCIe modem (it's listed as a spare part for this laptop, despite only hs2350 and un2430 being listed on modem support)? I'd really love quad core CPU, it speeds up my work so much. Core i7-3632QM 35W Quad core CPU? I've found it's officially compatible with I7-3820QM (which is surprisingly 45W part, but extremely hard to come by in my area). Problem is HP documentation is wildly confusing and often contradicting itself. I want to be it as modern as possible, since it's going to be in use as long as possible. However it's lacking essential components. yuck!) and I see it becoming my main machine.
I've just bought used (but mostly disassembled) 6470B.
