- Owner's manual
Q: Is the 4 gigs of dedicated graphics memory in addition to the 8 gig of memory on board?
A: Yes. R9 graphic card has its own 4GB memory. and laptop has 8GB memory separately.
Q: TDP
A: The chip in this unit is limited to the 15w TDP unfortunately. Indeed performance suffers on this unit because of it. I'm guessing they have done this due to thermal concerns since this is a very thin gaming laptop. And no it is not configurable, you can't even install faster RAM than DDR3-1600. I installed 16GB of DDR3-2133 and have no way of getting it to run anything beyond 1600. Very disappointing that they have clamped down the performance of the chip/chipset like this.
Q: Will I be able to do school work on this laptop and is it good for csgo
A: Of course you can do school work on it. You can do school work on a bargain bin laptop. This unit should play CS:GO just fine since that is not exactly a new game that runs on an ancient engine. You can probably run it off of the integrated graphics just fine even.
A: No, the CPU can not be changed.
Q: What would be a good SSD to replace the SATA?
A: I ended up adding a Samsung EVO m.2 250 Gb SSD on top of the included HDD. No need to replace IMO. Migrate Windows OS to SSD and you're good to go. I chose to stick with 8GB of ram because I haven't needed any more honestly.
Q: Will i be able to play fallout 4 well? and other games well online with my friends?
A: My daughter plays Dragon Age on it. I'm not sure if the specs are the same. But it was important in choosing this laptop that she'd be able to play Dragon Age.
Q: memory and solid state hard drive
A: There are about 9 screws on the bottom panel to be removed and access the internals. Not hard to open. Ram is expandable up to 16GB. The HDD is replaceable itself, but an m.2 SSD can be added. I added a Samsung EVO 250GB SSD on top of the included SSD.
A: it is a 15w TDP proc so it is limited more so than it could be since these can go up to 25w.
