The integrated GPU clocks at 800 MHz, features 768 shading units and 32 render output units, and achieves 6 TFLOPS of floating-point performance, with ray tracing support included. Storage relies on an NVMe SSD, and the system can also connect to an external drive for expanded capacity. Multithreading is enabled across the CPU, and the display refreshes at 120Hz, keeping on-screen motion smooth during gameplay.
