- Key Specs
- Processor Model: Intel 12th Generation Core i7 (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: 1256 gigabytes
- System Memory (RAM): 16 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: Dedicated (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: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (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: 1256 gigabytes
- Solid State Drive Capacity: 256 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: NVMe (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): 16 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): DDR5 (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
- System Memory RAM Speed: 4800 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: 4
- Number of Memory Sticks Included: 2
- System Memory RAM Expandable To: 128 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: Dedicated (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: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (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.)
- Compatibility
- Operating System: Windows 11 Home (The operating system manages all software and hardware, including files, memory and connected devices. Most importantly, it lets you interact with your device and your programs in a visual way; otherwise, you'd be typing computer code to get anything done.)
- Operating System Architecture: 64-bit (An operating system (OS) manages computer hardware, software resources, and programs in conjunction with the system's processor. 64-bit operating systems can handle more data at once than 32-bit systems, resulting in faster speeds, more effiency, and overall improved performance.)

Q: Bought this early Jan. 2023. What are some of the first recommended upgrades?
A: I needed to upgrade the hardware because, at a given time, I will be running Unity, Blender, virtual reality, video editing, multiple IDEs, virtual machines, browser tabs, Netflix, deep learning models, machine learning, simulations, large data sets, etc. Upgrades: - 1TB SSD - probably the first thing to upgrade for most users - 2 x 32GB RAM (yes, I use it) - most developers would be fine with 2 x 16GB RAM - 2TB HDD - super easy to install (open the non-glass panel)
Q: How well does the pc run fortnite on mid settings
A: This PC should have no problem running fort nite at any settings, I use this PC to play VR and it handles VR games on max settings like a hot knife through butter. No I don't play Fortnite, but I play PUBG and it also has no problem on maximum graphics settings. I've only run into a couple of hangups on a couple of games, but again those are Virutal Reality games, I have played every screen game that I own on this computer on max graphics settings, and it has handled them just fine.
Q: How well does this computer run Modern Warfare 2
A: Look up benchmark videos on YouTube. It can run max graphics at like 60-100 FPS. Most people don't run max graphics though due to crashes (mainly due to Modern Warfare and not the computer) Hope this helps
Q: How many fans does it have?
A: 4 fans
Q: Does this pc come with windows installed already or do I have to buy it separately
A: It comes pre installed with windows and a few nice lenovo apps.
A: Geekspin's review was for a far lower end version of the Gen 6. Their config had only an i5 CPU and a non_RTX GPU: Quote from that review: "This model features an Nvidia GeForce GTX Super graphics card and the latest 11th generation Core i5 6-core processor." It also had only 8GB of RAM. By contrast, this item here is a Gen 7 with an i7-12700 CPU, 16GB RAM and an Nvidia RTX3060 GPU.
Q: how many gpu fans are there? 2 or 1 or 3
A: 2 Fans on GPU RTX 3060
A: It believe it is a 500W bronze power supply, according to the data sheet I found that is linked through best buy. The link is the last item of the "overview" part, that says manuals and guides. It shows all possible configurations, which can go up to much higher GPUs, PSUs, etc. But the only PSU that makes sense that this one would have is the 500w bronze. There is no 650W one, so this was probably just a typo in tyhe best buy spec section.
