General info
1.Has integrated graphics
✔Intel Core i7-7700HQ
With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.
2.Supports 64-bit
✔Intel Core i7-7700HQ
A 32-bit operating system can only support up to 4GB of RAM. 64-bit allows more than 4GB, giving increased performance. It also allows you to run 64-bit apps.
Small semiconductors provide better performance and reduced power consumption. Chipsets with a higher number of transistors, semiconductor components of electronic devices, offer more computational power. A small form factor allows more transistors to fit on a chip, therefore increasing its performance.

8.GPU turbo
1100MHz
When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.
Some apps use OpenCL to apply the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU) for non-graphical computing. Newer versions introduce more functionality and better performance.
Performance
1.CPU speed
4 x 2.8GHz
The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.
3.Uses big.LITTLE technology
✖Intel Core i7-7700HQ
Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximize battery life.
4.Uses HMP
✖Intel Core i7-7700HQ
Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this setup, a processor can utilize all cores at the same time, or just a single core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide powerful performance or increased battery life respectively.
5.turbo clock speed
3.8GHz
When the CPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.
6.L2 cache
1MB
A larger L2 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.
7.L1 cache
256KB
A larger L1 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.
The clock multiplier controls the speed of the CPU.
9.L3 cache
6MB
A larger L3 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.
