Questions about this item

Does the Thunderbolt 3 port support external GPUs or dual 4K displays?

The port is Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C and carries PCIe, DisplayPort and USB 3.1 signals, so it can drive compatible eGPU enclosures or two 4K monitors through a suitable dock.

How many SODIMM slots are free for a memory upgrade?

The 24 GB configuration uses 8 GB soldered to the board plus a 16 GB SODIMM in the single user-accessible slot, so no further SODIMM expansion is possible.

What is the exact driver installation order for a clean Windows reload?

Install the chipset driver first, then the Thunderbolt controller firmware, followed by graphics, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, fingerprint and audio drivers in that sequence to avoid missing Thunderbolt security keys.
