- Refresh Rate: 300Hz (The number of frames per second the device can produce natively without enhancement. Higher rates help produce smooth, seamless pictures.)
- Processor Model: Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 2 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
