DDR4-2400 memory is supported across two channels.

65 W TDP with bundled cooler

At its 65 W thermal design power the chip stays cool under typical office and web tasks. The included fan and cooler handle normal loads without extra hardware. Intel UHD Graphics 630 operates up to 1100 MHz dynamic frequency for light media and multi-monitor use. No turbo boost means clock speeds remain steady.
