  • Key Specs
    • Processor Model: Intel 8th Generation Core i7 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
    • Storage Type: No storage included
    • Total Storage Capacity: 0 gigabytes
    • System Memory (RAM): 0 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
    • Graphics Type: Dedicated, Integrated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
    • Graphics: AMD Radeon RX Vega M GL (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

    • Processor Model Number: i7-8705G
  • Storage
    • Storage Type: No storage included
    • Total Storage Capacity: 0 gigabytes
    • Hard Drive Accelerator: None (A module integrated (or added) into a PC to improve performance speed. By acting as a high-speed cache, an accelerator speeds up access times to the hard drive, which results in faster web browsing, improved gaming experience, and overall more responsiveness.)
  • Memory
    • System Memory (RAM): 0 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
    • Type of Memory (RAM): DDR4 SoDIMM (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
    • System Memory RAM Speed: 2400 megahertz (How fast the information-storing hardware operates. The faster the RAM, the faster memory can be transferred to other system components. Ultimately, faster RAM improves operational efficiency.)
    • System Memory RAM Expandable To: 32 gigabytes (Adding more random-access memory (RAM) to a computer speeds up performance and improves efficiency. Upgrades to memory are limited by the number of expansion slots for additional RAM and existing RAM installed on the device.)

    • Graphics Type: Dedicated, Integrated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
    • GPU Brand: AMD Radeon
    • Graphics: AMD Radeon RX Vega M GL (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)
  • Compatibility
    • Operating System: None (The operating system manages all software and hardware, including files, memory and connected devices. Most importantly, it lets you interact with your device and your programs in a visual way; otherwise, you'd be typing computer code to get anything done.)
  • Connectivity
    • Number of HDMI Outputs (Total): 2
    • Number of Thunderbolt Ports (Total): 2
    • Ethernet Card: 10/100/1000 (Also known as an Ethernet adapter, this card plugs into a computer's motherboard and enables it to access an Ethernet network. Ethernet data transmission speeds are measured in Mbps (megabits per second) and Gbps (gigabits per second). For example, a 10/100 Ethernet port transmits 10 and 100 Mbps, while a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits 10 and 100 Mbps and has a maximum speed of 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
  • Expansion
    • Number of M.2 Slots: 2 (This interface is most commonly used for high-speed solid state drives (SSDs), and is often used in laptops due to its small size.)
  • Features
    • Media Card Reader: true (A hardware device that allows for access to data on a memory card and enables the transfer of its files to a computer. These devices may have one or multiple slots for various types of memory cards, and may be integrated into the computer or available as an external device.)
