A:AnswerI use both Photoshop and Picasa for photo editing. I do not use Lightroom. I am extremely pleased with the responsiveness/speed in editing my photos.
A:AnswerPS4 uses a handheld controller, so it's not going to have the same gameplay experience. Depending on your PS4 version, you might also have 4K display, which this computer does not. This GPU probably delivers similar graphics experience, but you're comparing two different graphics card manufacturers and it's hard to draw a direct parallel. This GPU has 2GB dedicated RAM, while your PS4 likely has an APU which shares RAM with the rest of the system.
A:AnswerThank you again for reaching out. You would replace the existing m.2 SSD with a 1tb version. When disassembling to upgrade the SSD you can also upgrade the RAM. Right now this model has 1x8GB and 1x4GB. If you replaced that 4GB module you could max out the machine to 16GB RAM total. This model is exclusive to Best Buy. There may be similar models elsewhere but they would not be same as this one.
A:Answer4k is available but you have to custom order it from HP. Only takes about a week though. You can also purchase a few smaller component upgrades as well.
A:AnswerI have a very active graphics applications that I can run for 6 hours and then need to plug in to recharge..... I turn off the backlight for keyboard , turn off webcam and I have higher brightness for display. I could get more time out of the battery if I dimmed the display brightness.
A:AnswerThe max turbo frequency for this processor is 4.6 gHz, so from the processing perspective, this laptop will be able to handle AutoCAD. The dedicated graphics card will also be important.
