  • Key Specs
    • Processor Model: Intel 6th 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
    • Total Storage Capacity: 512 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: Integrated (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: Intel HD Graphics 530 (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.)

Q: Is wifi built-in or do I need to buy a card? Haven't had a tower in years and remember being different than a laptop.

A: There is no built in wifi so I had to use one of the USB ports for an external one. There is a built in speaker btw, but it took me awhile to get it to work and it does not seem to recognize my external speakers.

Q: Will I be able to hook this up to my stereo receiver via bluetooth? Does this tower have bluetooth? I'm asking bc the monitor I'm buying doesn't have speakers but I have a bluetooth receiver right next to my work station.

A: This system does not support Bluetooth connectivity. The desktop could support a USB speaker or a stereo speaker with 3.5 mm Jack connectivity.

Q: Can I upgrade to Windows 11 down the road?

A: This system is not elgible for Windows 11 upgrade.

Q: Is there a DVI card in this comuter

A: This computer has an HDMI port and Display Ports. No DVI port.

Q: Will I be able to add more storage later on? Or am I stuck at the set amount?
