Product Manuals
A: You need a small torx driver for the screws towards the front. Then remove the rear rubber strip and remove the phillips head screws there. Then use a plastic wedge to carefully pry the bottom off. Best go counter clockwise with the bottom up and on a flat surface. Make sure you take precautions for static discharge. I believe the memory is under a metal shield next to the empty NVME M.2 slot. If you add an NVME SSD you'll need to get a hold down screw for it. Doesn't come with one installed on the board. You'll need to clone your system and fix the UEFI or reinstall if you want to have the SSD as you primary boot device.
A: You can upgrade the hard drive to a standard 2.5" sata ssd or you can leave the 1tb hdd in and install a nvme ssd in the m2 slot which is what I did. What a difference it makes. Laptop boots in about 8 seconds from cold boot after fresh install of windows 10. DDR4 SODIMM 2400mhz is the ram you would be looking for. SSD upgrade is definitely worth it, questionable if more ram is necessary. Good luck and enjoy. This laptop is amazing!
A: It's so quiet I have to hold my breath to hear the fan
Q: What is the full name of the cpu?
A: AMD Ryzen 5 2500U
A: My Surface 3 Pen (Same as the Surface 3 Pro Pen) works with the laptop. Pressure does provide differences but I don't know what the laptop supports. Could be 256 or 4096. Just don't know.
Q: How many hours does this laptop last?
A: I've gotten 4-6 hours on battery, but I haven't had it long enough for the lithium battery to get fully conditioned yet......
A: It has an hdmi port as well as type c usb that features display port. You can connect an external dvd rom and display with no problem.
A: From my testing, I agree with one of the other answers. I've managed to play older titles like Bioshock Infinite at 40-55FPS with high settings at 1600x900, newer games like Rise of the Tomb Raider only manage to play at 1280x720 and medium settings to maintain 30FPS, although I suspect a driver issue since I managed to get up to the same 1600x900 resolution with only a loss of 2-3FPS. The difference between medium and high settings in that game are also negligible. Most new games are playable at 1600x900 at medium settings which is good considering I've managed the same on Intel Iris Pro graphics in the past, which are only bundled in Intel's more expensive i7 processors. As for the VR mention, they are not referring to the Oculus Rift. They are talking about the new Windows VR headsets, which have much lower system requirements, and aren't used for the same type of gaming. Think Samsung Gear VR instead of Oculus Rift VR gaming.
