Thinkpad T410 vs W510

[pclaptop23hour]

Which is better a Lenovo Thinkpad T510 or a W510?

They both have the same amount of ram 4gb, and similar 120gb ssd!

What is the max ram for each above (T510 and W510)

Both are running Win7 Ultimate


thanks in advance

Both of these machines are EOL (end of life) but they (Thinkpads in general) are TANKS!

They can take a lot of abuse i have used them for field and service work and they get bounced around a LOT. My friend wants a couple for his kids while they are quarantined at home to login to school. no heavy gaming graphics or cpu power is needed!

They also have beaucoup accessories. for example the cd/dvd slot can be an extra hdd or battery. They also can conjoin with a docking station for extra USB ports as well as video out choices!

W510 has slightly better cpu, and similar gpu is similar. I would take W510 if theyre same price since its slightly newer but both are good choices.

Did a little rooting, the W has an nVidia GPU and the W has a four core CPU which mean 32gb of ram max.
So I think I'll agree with you, the W510 will be the way to go, price is almost the same.
