ROBUST I/O
With 8 USB Type-A ports, you can easily connect multiple external devices simultaneously, such as keyboards, mice, and game controllers. The USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 port offers faster data transfer speeds for external drives and quick charging for phones and tablets.
WIFI 6 & 1Gbps ETHERNET
For those staying in one place, the wired Ethernet port provides stable, high-speed wired internet connections, ideal for low-latency gaming or heavy data transfers. But if you’re on the move or live in a location with less access to a wired connection, built-in WiFi 6 ensures stable and smooth online gaming even on a congested network.
