  • Key Specs
    • Processor Model: Intel 7th Generation Core i9 X (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.)

    • Processor Model Number: i7-8700
  • 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: PCIe (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): 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.)
    • System Memory RAM Expandable To: 64 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.)
  • Compatibility
    • Operating System: Windows 10 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.)
  • Connectivity
    • 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).)

Product Manuals

Q: Is the SSD a NVMe drive?

A: Yes, the SSD is a m.2 NVMe drive and is the boot drive for windows. It’s crazy fast, average boot time is about 5 seconds.

Q: Looking at the specs it appears there is a single display port. Aside from the fact that it does not say what kind of port this is, does this mean you have to purchase additional hardware in order to run multiple monitors? I want to run 4 monitors.

A: The PC has a single DVI-D port that is not on the GTX-1070 card. The GTX-1070 card has 1 HDMI port and 3 display ports. I have included a photo for reference, hope this helps.

Q: Does this machine have an hdmi port?

A: Yes this machine comes with only one HDMI Port. This machine comes with an HDMI cord to plug into a monitor. So if you needed this HDMI port for any other device I would recommend purchasing a Display Port Cord for your monitor to free up this HDMI port. This machine also has the capability and capacity to input additional HDMI ports on the back side.

Q: Is this air cooled or liquid cooled? Also what is the wattage of the cooling system?

A: Not sure if this is the case for all of these models to be sold by Best Buy or if I got really lucky, but when I received mine I found that the CPU is liquid cooled. A nice surprise, but like I said, it may have been accidental.

Q: is this system upgadeable? can it be liquid cooled?

A: This model is expandable. It is unclear if the cooling system can be changed.

Q: Will my netgear be fine with this pc? And how do i cancel the ssd and make it only go to my hdd for downloads?

A: Your netgear will work fine with this PC, and whenever you download something, just choose which drive you want it to be installed on.
