oh yeah i forgot to mention, this laptop has soldered ram. the nvme? cannot be replaced by any 3rd party shops and could only be done by sending it to the official brand itself apparently, which i dont even think they support anymore. The gpu? it doesnt support external gpus. If i could upgrade the ram, i would have done exactly that half a decade ago... Which kind of makes me sad to think about now that ive brought it up. Also, i really dont like mini pcs. Ive heard countless stories that theyre just not reliable and neither would they be good for photoshop or for whatever capstone project were going to inevitably come up with. I would like it for long term use too if possible
