Product: Zbook 15 G2
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Fi, I have been using Zbook 15 G2 for a while. it has I7 4810MQ and Quadro K1100 on board. For now, I am in need to upgrade it. Through some topics here, in this community, Iknow the chipset is upgradable, but how about the other? so I have some concerns:

1. What is the highest chipset I can upgrade for my specific laptop?

2. The same question in (1) to GPU.

3. Could I upgrade my screen? I am using a full HD screen now.

1. While you could upgrade to a 4910MQ, you would only see single digit percent increases in performance. I've heard that you can upgrade to an i7-4930mx chipset, but again the increases would likely be mid single digit increases.

2. See link below. It lists all GPU's supported with the newest Graphics driver upgrade. M1000M or M2000M would likely be the highest recommended due to thermals on the higher boards, the driver says it now supports up to an M5000M.  FYI - This is the Read Me txt file from the newest 2020 Graphics Driver for the ZBook G2.

3.There is a 1080 FHD Dreamcolor panel and an UDH 4k panel that are supported by the ZBook G2, but I'm not sure if you would need to upgrade the panel cable along with the panel itself.  Someone else may be able to help you with this one.
