GPU on Inspiron 17R (N7110) can be upgraded?

I use this laptop for games, but some games require a higher performance graphics processor. Is it possible to upgrade and it so what are the processors Nvidia can be installed?

Hi SteelGraphics,

Usually, laptops have not the ability to update the graphics card. The graphics card is integrated on the motherboard and a full motherboard replacement may be necessary. Dell card NVIDIA GeForce GT 525 M only ships with this system model. This must be selected at time of purchase. If you are looking to update the graphics card, motherboard together may be replaced.

Hope this information helps.

  • Inspiron 17R N7110 mSATA Mini (half size) SSD

    Hello

    I want to upgrade my laptop Inspiron 17R N7110 with a SSD for Windows boot. I have only one place where the HARD drive is already integrated and I want to keep the HARD drive.

    When I remove the dust inside the laptop the fan I saw the "mini card" (half) - Slot Machines. In one, I have WIFI, but the otherone is empty. So my idea was to add a Mini mSATA (half size) SSD.

    I saw this on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/MyDigitalSSD-Super-Cache-HybriDisk-Software/dp/B00JF4CUBO/ref=pd_cp_pc_0

    But I don't know if that would work (such as boot drive for Win8). Make this shape as a (half) "mini card"? Is SATA III to this slot machine supported? What I have to change in the BIOS?

    Thanks to all who responded.

    The hybrid propulsion system is the best option for this (short to get a full SSD) system - there is no way to put an mSATA SSD in this system.

    The system supports standard, 2.5 "hard drives up to 9.5 mm height.

  • Satellite A35-S159 - can I upgrade the CPU, GPU and HARD drive?

    Hey

    I have one in my possession and I wanted to make a good game.

    I don't know if I'll be able to cause. It hurts thinking may be able to put a processor duo or quad, and I do not know if the CPU will be able to support a really good graphics card, and I also think about changing hard drive.

    Any1 know what hard drives are compatible with what I can use which are good for games?

    Hello!

    I m wondering that you want to upgrade this old notebook. In my view, that a new laptop would be a better solution.

    On the CPU and GPU upgrade I can only say s is not possible and not Toshiba support. The GPU is soldered on the motherboard and t can be exchanged.
    I think you should read this: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    The HARD drive can be upgraded. This isn t a problem.
    AFAIK the A35 Satellite is equipped with a s IDE HDD and this means that you buy a drive HARD IDE interface up to 128 GB.

    Good bye

    CPU GPU - attached to the card system & integrated, is not scalable

    RAM - up to 12 gb max, put another 8 GB in the second slot of exactly the same configuration as shown in the manual and preferably the same brand. I suggest putting another 4 GB instead so that you will get the boost dual-channel.

  • How can I uninstall windows 8 and install windows 7 on an Inspiron 17R SE 7720

    I bought my Inspiron 17R SE with Windows 8 installed in December 2012. I tried my best to become familiar with Windows 8, but most of the time I do love. I tried to use the classic interface so it looked like Windows 7 but I still don't like it.  It seems to me that Windows 8 be not really suitable for the use of the laptop.

    I want to uninstall Windows 8 and install my own copy of Windows 7 Pro, but I do not know if it will install on a laptop at the origin of installation for Windows 8.  I asked Technical Support on this issue, but I was told that Dell would not support this so they couldn't help me.

    Can anyone here help me with detailed instructions on how to achieve what I want... I read that the needs of settings in the Bios to be changed before I start but do not know what to do.

    Thank you

  • Inspiron 17R SE (7720) upgrade screen resolution?

    Hello
    I have a 'special edition of the Inspiron 17R"(serial number: DCC2DT1) and I used it for about 2 and a half years.
    Not once in that time has stopped working, I'm very happy with it and I would update some components and I hope to continue to use it for a few years.

    I am looking to change/update the screen 1600 x 900 on a Full HD 1920 x 1080 display.
    My main question here is, if this is possible and will not be a problem, and if I could use first put the other components of the laptop?

    I would also like to upgrade the HDD for an SSD and a day later the Intel i7 Intel i5 processor. Is this what I need to know before I Exchange/upgrade components?

    Thanks for reading.

    To upgrade the display panel, you must also replace the harness of the display - one that comes with the lower panel of the resolution will not work with the FHD display.

    SSD upgrade will not be a problem

    Updates are possible with this model (it is the last of Intel Mobile processors, which is sold in the form of half-bridge, removable) - you will need an Ivy Bridge CPU.  Also check your power adapter - 90 w does not have an i7.  You need a minimum of 130 W power adapter to run an i7 CPU.

  • Ubuntu linux driver installation for Nvidia 950 M on Dell Inspiron 17R SE 7720

    Hello

    I bought a Dell Inspiron 17R SE 7720 Ubuntu version because I like Ubuntu linux more than Windows.

    I can't find the linux drivers that will allow my Nvidia GT 950 M graphics so, basically, the card useless and no power management.
    There is absolutely nothing for Ubuntu Linux on your drivers page.

    I have updated to the latest BIOS A03.

    The laptop's Ubuntu Logo sticker on it next to the Intel i7 so I thought it is totally compatible.

    Please advise,

    Thank you

    Optimus system and at the present time, it is not properly supported under Linux, there is work in progress for him, but for a workaround, see Bumblebee project: wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee

    Description a little longer: you have two graphics - integrated (Intel) and discreet (Nvidia). Optimus systems are designed with the intention to use the GPU integrated tasks that requires no graphic heavy treatment (most of the day-to-day activities) and the use of the discrete GPU for applications requiring more powerful GPU. Integrated card is less eager for power and voltage GPU discreet when not in service allows cooler use.

    Normally you use integrated card and there is no way to use the card nvidia directly if the BIOS does not switch to it. Help Optimus allows to use the Nvidia card for rendering and power down to save power when not in use. It has not been official for Optimus of Nvidia Linux support. Bumblebee is a community created project attempting to address the issue, but it is really only a workaround until the solution has been created. FIRST is such a solution, but at present it is still experimental and is not in any version of Ubuntu, more it is officially supported only in the open drivers source (new), Nvidia has not yet validated supporting in their binary driver.

    I agree that Dell support for bids Linux pages are sorely lacking, in fact I was not able to locate a page describing their Linux pre-installs. Ubuntu certification pages are not really informative on Dell changes and upgrade policy.

  • Windows 10 audio drivers for Inspiron 17R SE (7720, mid-2012)

    Hello

    On the page of the product related to my Inspiron 17R laptop SE (7720, mid-2012) there is information that "Dell has tested this product to confirm that it can be upgraded to Windows 10.

    I installed Windwos 10 Pro x 64 bit that everything works well except audio.

    There is no driver to download from the download page for the Audio and subwoofer on my laptop does not work.

    Link to the driver download page: www.dell.com/.../advanced

    Could I get download link for compatible audio driver (IDT sound card), please

  • Audio Inspiron 17R 5720 problem

    Hello

    I have an inspiron 17r laptop 5720 with which I am facing audio problems. Whenever I start it up, the audio does not work on the speakers and headphones. To resolve this problem, I reinstall the drivers by uninstalling the audio drivers in Device Manager, then restart the system.

    The audio works after the restart as long as I continue to use it all the time. If I stop audio playback for awhile and then try to play again, it does not work. I have to repeat the same procedure to uninstall the drivers + restart to get it working again.

    How can I solve this problem? Below are the drivers installed.

    Definition Hiigh CODEC IDT by IDT (6.10.0.6426)

    Audio device high definition from Microsoft (6.3.9600.16384)

    I tried dell support where it scans my system to determine if any driver download is necessary. All this turns out to be good. In addition, in the Device Manager, it says that the drivers are up to date. I am running windows 8.1 (upgrade of windows 8 from the "Bank") and is updated regularly!

    Help, please!

    Thank you.

    Hello. Go to the Device Manager and right-click on the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and choose to uninstall the driver. Check the box to delete the files. When you restart, you will use the native Windows audio driver (high definition Audio device). If the problem persists with the native driver then it might be a hardware problem.

    In order to exclude the hardware failure, perform a recovery of the system. If the problem immediately after a system recovery, so it's the hardware failure.

  • The battery life for inspiron 17r special edition or what to buy for College?

    I am looking to buy a high mid range laptop for College. I need a laptop that can handle games, in addition to other activities of the College. I've narrowed my search up to three computers different portable all pretty much the same price, and now I don't know that we choose. My three choices are the occasional 17r, the xps 15 Inspiron and alienware m14x.

    I'm leaning toward the inspiron because its cheaper than the other two and still a great internals. My only concern is the battery life. The battery is low, and I guess with the i7 and the screen 17 inch hd that the battery of the 17r will be terrible. I need something that's going to allow me to study on campus, if need is and be able to handle the TRIPS would be nice. So my question is... Are their any availble upgraded battery for editing special 17r? I saw a battery 9 cells, but it is not listed specifically as compatible with the Edition special 17r, just a 17r. If there is not, are their suggestions for greater autonomy on the road (without the usual stuff like processes of cutting and dimming of the screen).

    Also, on a related note, the inspiron 17r will be able to manage the game well? I don't need a power plant, but I want something that can handle new games for the next two years even if I have to lower the settings as the games become more intense.

    Hi dtruax,

    After sending two children to College, I went through this twice buying decision. The first thing I will say is that you're probably not going to carry your laptop on campus, almost as much as you think you will. And all equipped with gaps of a computer on campus, 17 "laptop will become quickly apparent. For the most part he'll be back at home. So the battery life is not as important as you might think.

    Regarding the size, two of my students, who initially leaned over to a 17 "machine, were much more happy with a smaller screen (14" for my son, 15 "for my daughter), compared to their classmates with computers laptops 17".

    The three models, the XPS is going to be the best for gaming. But I go back to the advice we have been given. Spend a little less on the laptop and a little more to get a 4 year complete care warranty. Many universities offer a 4 year warranty free and tech support if you buy through their Bookstore, which is what we did.
