  • 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.)
    • GPU Brand: NVIDIA
    • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 (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.)

    Great 14" Laptop

    I purchased this computer while it was on sale and have not been disappointed with it in any way. The specs easily meet my needs for work and some mid to light video editing, and the games I've played, so far, have been smooth and the video looks great. The computer feels great, feels solid. For my needs, it's surpassed my expectations.

    It’s just okay..

    It gets insanely hot, runs like garbage unplugged (as most laptops do), and it’s a bit smushed and uncomfortable to play on for extended periods. While specs really aren’t bad, I think you could find a more comfortable machine at this price point. I much prefer my older ASUS TUF laptop to this in pretty much every category.

    Powerful little machine!

    A great machine for an excellent price. Great as a family machine, but I can use it for CAD for work, and my kids use it for some GPU intensive gaming. We all love it.
