Q: QuestionWhen I open the windows it shows that the processor speed is 1.7ghz but when I search for the processor speed on the internet it was 4.7ghz
Asked by Ehab.
- A:Answer Greetings from the Intel team. Thank you for your question. 1.7ghz is the base frequency of the Intel® Core™ i7-1255U processor and can reach a Max Turbo Frequency of 4.70 GHz. CPUs do not always need to run at their maximum frequency. Some programs depend more on memory to run smoothly, while others are CPU-intensive. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology is an energy-efficient solution to this imbalance: it lets the CPU run at its base clock speed when handling light workloads, then jump to a higher clock speed for heavy workloads. For detailed information about the Intel® Core™ i7-1255U processor, visit: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/226259/intel-core-i71255u-processor-12m-cache-up-to-4-70-ghz.html Thank you for choosing Intel!

Q: QuestionCan I charge it via the Type C port ?
Asked by Dotun.

Q: QuestionIs this model 32 or 64 bit?
Asked by Jubilee.
- A:Answer As answered by HP, Win 11 requires a 64-bit CPU. Another way of telling is the RAM: anything with more than 4GB would almost certainly be 64-bit; otherwise, they would be selling you memory that you couldn't even use.

Q: QuestionCan this be used for gaming on Steam?
Asked by Anonymous.

Q: QuestionIs this computer good for Home and schooling?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer If you use this computer for the usual quotidian tasks of home and schooling (browsing, shopping, playing YouTube videos and music, streaming, accounting, conferencing, record keeping, looking at photos, MS Office Suite--did I miss anything?) it is an EXCELLENT computer for home and schooling. In fact, it's probably overkill. But since it IS much more than you will probably ever need, it will probably outlast your needs (short of dropping it on the sidewalk or down a flight of stairs).

Q: QuestionDoes this laptop come with Microsoft Office installed?
Asked by Wayne.
- A:Answer Many PCs have a trial version of MS Office preinstalled, but if they don't, you can download the 30-day version from Microsoft. There are also a number of compatible, perfectly fine Office suites available, so you would only need the MS version if you were using the device for work and your employer required it, or you didn't want to learn how to perform various functions in different ways.

Q: Questiondoes the keyboard lite up?
Asked by oldman.
- A:Answer Generally speaking, you pay a lot more for a laptop with a backlit keyboard. Ask yourself, do you really need to work in the dark that often? My laptop has it, but I actually DO work in the dark when using it, and when I bought it, I didn't even know it had the feature. You can also just buy an external keyboard with light features, which will either be cheaper or give you all the fancy features you might want (different, changing colors, etc.).

Asked by Musicman.
