A:AnswerThis system does not come with a discrete graphics card. Graphics processing is integrated within this system's Intel Core I-03 processor. The graphics processing on the chip is Intel® HD Graphics 4400. The video images on the screen should not be washed out. That would probably be a function of the monitor settings, at any rate. We recommend you try it yourself. Best Buy has a great return policy of 15 days, so long as the product is not damaged and with your original receipt. Give the system a try.
A:AnswerThere is only one 3.5" SATA drive port on this system. A certified technician could replace the existing drive with a larger 3.5" SATA drive, but there is not room for two drives installed internally on this system. A certified technician needs to do the work so as to not void the warranty.
A:AnswerYou may want to check with Best Buy for refurbished models. Also check with Microsoft about downgrading Windows 10 to another version of Windows and what options are available.
A:AnswerThere is only one drive bay and two memory slots within this system. You can upgrade the hard drive to a compatible larger HDD or compatible SSD. The maximum RAM for this system is 16GB.
A:AnswerWe recommend you check for the compatibility of the graphics card with this slim format case and the power requirements to run the card. This system has a 180w power supply.
A:AnswerThis system comes with a 180w power supply. No it can't be increased because of compatibility with the other electrical components of the system.
A:AnswerYes, this sounds like a compatibility issue. You are correct that this system is configured such that connections for headphones and a microphone are separated. The headset you describe is configured so that both connections are within one port on the device. With the Lenovo Y-Series headset, we provide a USB connection and an adapter for 3.5mm connection as well. So for systems like this one, where the 3.5mm ports are configured separately, you can use the USB adapter. We recommend you check with Apple to see if there is a USB adapter for the headset you have and give the USB adapter a try. Also check with Apple for the headset's compatibility with Windows 10 operating system.
