Q: Does this have MS Office already installed?

A: A little more information: most PCs have MS Office pre-installed for a 30-day free trial. You can choose to extend Office 365 on a monthly or yearly basis, with different options (1 PC, 1 User, student or business edition), but a version is also still available where you buy it under a "perpetual" license. This version is known as Microsoft Office Long Term Servicing Channel (LTSC), and the most recent version available now (July 2023) is for 2021. This operates like the original Office in that you pay once and use it as long as you want, rather than as a subscription service. There are two basic versions: 1) Includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote (which will not changed from Office 2019) and 2) Can also have Outlook, Access (Windows only), and Publisher (Windows only). There are also LTSC releases of Project and Visio. Pricing is similar to the original "pay once, use forever" versions of Office, meaning relatively high, since MS would rather people move to the subscription version, which is more profitable for them.

Q: Is this computer good for STEAM games?

A: Yes, it would be a good choice for Steam games.

Q: how many slots does this computer have for ram can i add ram to it?

A: Thank you for the question. The HP 15-ef2033dx has two RAM slots - not user accessible. You can have an upgrade performed by a professional technician, up to 32GB in total.

Q: have you made improvements to the hinge, the last hp both mine and my wifes hinges broke after warranty expired. also is this a true pc or classified as an android chrome book i need a pc for surfing the web and also for pc games i do own

A: Yes, we've worked to upgrade the hinge reliability. And it's not a Chromebook, because it's not running the Google Chrome operating system, so it's a "true" Windows pc.

Q: When you open the laptop would you find a slot to expand the ram to 16GB? I've been looking for videos but I can't find this specific model. I would also like to know if it has an extra port to expand storage?

A: Thank you for the question. There is no additional port to add storage. Yes, you will find a slot to add additional RAM or switch out the stick that's already in place. Due to the location of the battery, we always recommend that upgrades be performed by a professional technician. You can see the YouTube HP Support Channel for information about upgrading the HP 15-ef2033dx laptop.

Q: Can you run League of Legends on this laptop?

A: This laptop meets the minimum system requirements to run League of Legends, however it does not have the recommended system requirements.

Q: Which is better, Ryzen 3 or Intel I3 for just ordinary home day to day use? The Ryzen as of 10-27-2023 is on sale much cheaper than Intel I3.

A: Thank you for the question. Both offer great performance and it's typically a matter of personal choice.

Q: Hey i just want to ask about the processor of that computer if it is i3 or i5 or i7 and thanks

A: As stated by the manufacturer, it is an AMD processor, which is good, since there is a 5300U Intel CPU, but it is much slower than the AMD (CPU Mark 2744 vs. 9744).
