- Key Specs
- Processor Model: AMD 2nd Generation Ryzen 5 (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.)
- Storage Type: SSD, HDD
- Total Storage Capacity: 1128 gigabytes
- System Memory (RAM): 8 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
- Graphics Type: Discrete (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
- Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 580 (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

- Storage
- Storage Type: SSD, HDD
- Total Storage Capacity: 1128 gigabytes
- Solid State Drive Capacity: 128 gigabytes (The amount of data that can be stored on the device's solid state drive (SSD). SSD is a flash-based storage with faster speeds than a hard disk drive (HDD).)
- Hard Drive Capacity: 1000 gigabytes (The amount of data that can be stored on the device's mechanical hard drive. Hard disk drives (HDDs) typically have larger capacities than solid state drives (SSDs) but may have slower speeds.)
- Solid State Drive Interface: SATA (Connects the solid state drive to the host system. PCI and SATA interfaces are the most common; PCI interfaces are typically faster, but SATA interfaces are compatible with a wider range of systems.)
- Hard Drive Interface: SATA (Connects the hard drive to the host system for transferring data between the hard disk cache and system memory. IDE and SATA interfaces are primarily used for personal computing, while larger servers and workstations typically use SAS or SCSI.)
- Hard Drive RPM: 7200 revolutions per minute (A hard drive's data is stored on disks, or platters, that spin while transferring information to the host system. The higher the RPM, the faster the hard drive's performance.)
- Hard Drive Accelerator: None (A module integrated (or added) into a PC to improve performance speed. By acting as a high-speed cache, an accelerator speeds up access times to the hard drive, which results in faster web browsing, improved gaming experience, and overall more responsiveness.)
- Memory
- System Memory (RAM): 8 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
- Type of Memory (RAM): DDR4 SDRAM (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
- System Memory RAM Speed: 2666 megahertz (How fast the information-storing hardware operates. The faster the RAM, the faster memory can be transferred to other system components. Ultimately, faster RAM improves operational efficiency.)
- Number Of Memory Slots: 2
- Number of Memory Sticks Included: 3
- System Memory RAM Expandable To: 32 gigabytes (Adding more random-access memory (RAM) to a computer speeds up performance and improves efficiency. Upgrades to memory are limited by the number of expansion slots for additional RAM and existing RAM installed on the device.)
- Graphics
- Graphics Type: Discrete (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)

- Connectivity
- Number of DisplayPort Outputs (Total): 3
- Number of USB Ports (Total): 9
- Ethernet Card: 10/100/1000 (Also known as an Ethernet adapter, this card plugs into a computer's motherboard and enables it to access an Ethernet network. Ethernet data transmission speeds are measured in Mbps (megabits per second) and Gbps (gigabits per second). For example, a 10/100 Ethernet port transmits 10 and 100 Mbps, while a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits 10 and 100 Mbps and has a maximum speed of 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)

- Mouse, keyboard
Q: How good does Fortnite play on this
A: I don't play Fortnite, but if I'm able to play Overwatch on ultra, you can definitely play Fortnite. Trust me.
Q: How many RAM slots does this have, and how many are used when you buy it?
A: This model has 2 DDR4 slots. It has 1x8gb card preinstalled.
A: So ive seen an official HP answer above on this 690 as well as another computer in this hp pavilion gaming computer (with the same external casing) on best buy that had another HP answer that say you can exchange it. But im hearing is that you can't. I honestly dont know how you can. HP is being very shady about this. I opened up the case myself and measured the PSU. Its 2.8125 x 2.9375 x 6.25 inch or 71.4375 x 74.6125 x 158.75 mm. So not only is this PSU NOT standard but proprietary. ALSO, the motherboard seems to be proprietary as well and must be replaced too. NOW HP...lets see what you say about the above.. I was really happy with this product but because you can't upgrade it fully, I'll probably be returning this product.
A: Yes, upgrading the memory would solve the issue. We apologize that the original configuration was not strong enough!! Your system can support up to 32G of RAM, Type DDR4-2666, with speed PC4-21300 MB/s. Adding an additional 8G card of this type would be perfect, or you can do two 16G cards of this type.
Q: Can this pc run dual monitor
A: Yes, this computer will easily support dual monitors!
Q: is this the 8Gb version of the rx580 or the 4 gb
A: This one uses the 4GB version of the RX 580
Q: Is this computer good for Twitch streaming while playing games like Overwatch or Rainbow?
A: Yes, this computer has more than enough power for those games. It only has the minimum required for Twitch, so you might occasionally experience lag (depending on your internet connection and other external factors), but for the most part it will run just fine.
Q: How far can you upgrade the processor?
A: It supports a TDP of up to 65w. Currently the top processor would be the AMD Ryzen7-2700
