    • GPU Video Memory (RAM): 8 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a GPU’s, or graphics cards, short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the GPU can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, larger amounts of RAM for gaming or video editing increases performance.)
    • GPU Video Memory Type (RAM): GDDR6 (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
    • Slot Size: 2.5-slot (A graphics card only requires one PCIe/PCI slot for connection to the motherboard but, depending on size, may block other slots. The slot size listed by the manufacturer is therefore not an exact measurement of the card's size but an indication of how much clearance will be available after it is installed.)
