Questions about this item

Does the 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8550U throttle under sustained full-load work?

The quad-core processor runs at a 1.8 GHz base frequency with 8 MB L2 cache; sustained performance will depend on the cooling solution fitted to the specific unit you receive.

How loud does the fan get and how hot does the chassis feel during an all-day workload?

The supplier notes only that units are tested for full functionality; acoustic and thermal behaviour under continuous load is not described for either the T480 or T490 chassis.

Which ports and accessories are guaranteed to be present so I can connect my existing monitors and wired network?

Every unit includes three USB 3.1 ports, one USB-C port, one HDMI output, one RJ-45 Ethernet jack, a front-facing webcam, Intel dual-band wireless with Bluetooth 4.1, and an OEM 45 W or 65 W AC adapter.
