Q: Would this laptop have enough memory for a college student?
A: The Pavillion is good for music,video,dvd and webcams,electronic book download.You want a computer with lots of Gigabytes and Office software for doing reports and automatic save if you loose power. You do not want a computer that overheats after being plugged in for a long time .YOU WANT LONG BATTERY LIFE this is essential.
Q: RAM upgrade
A: The memory on this HP PC is upgradeable to 8GB of DDR3 PC3-12800 memory module.
Q: Is it a mistake that you show that this is a Dual Core Processor?
A: Its a Core i7 U processor, not a full Core i7 desktop processor. They have had to make some compromises to be able to run it on a laptop and at this price point. The processor is actually a dual core with hyperthreading which makes it a quad core, however its got 2 physical cores. A Core i7 for a desktop has 4 physical cores with hyper threading, which makes 8 threads. The other difference to a desktop i7 is that it has only 4 mb cache vs 8 mb on the chip for the desktop variant. For all purposes this Core i7U processor is more like a Core i5 desktop variant with i7 features. Its faster than the Core i3, but the performance metrics would be similar for the casual user. The Core i3 has 3 mb cache onboard vs 4mb of the Core i7U. Amount of Cache would make the CPU faster when it comes to crunching numbers. Hope this helps
Q: Can I upgrade the WiFi to the faster AC standard?
A: Yes and Yes. I use a faster USB wifi interface. be sure to turn off the internal wifi to prevent interference.
Q: Has anyone experienced broken webcam problems?
A: undefined
Q: how would you upgrade the hard drive in this laptop
A: undefined
A: no
Q: Overclocking
A: So far I use it about 4-5 hours a day and it runs really cool.
