5Chapter 1Getting StartedPerformance Information and RestrictionThis computer automatically maintains the CPU and GPU clock•speed at every moment to control the heating and powerconsumption of the computer for minimum performancedegradation.For best computer performance:1. Connect the AC adapter.2. Launch Settings software, and select General > Max.Performance Mode > Activate max. performance mode.Online games and some games(3D,2D) may not be supported•and Full HD video and some high bit rate HD video playbackmay be slow and stutter on this computer.About the Product Capacity RepresentationStandardAbout the capacity representation of the storageThe capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufactureris calculated assuming that 1KB=1,000 Bytes.However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the storagedevice capacity assuming that 1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore thecapacity representation of the HDD in Windows is smaller than theactual capacity due to the difference in capacity calculation.(E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity as 74.5GB,80x1,000x1,000x1,000 byte/(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte = 74.505GB)Windows may also display a smaller hard disk capacity dueto some hidden functions or software programs such as theRecovery program.About Memory Capacity RepresentationThe memory capacity reported in Windows is less than the actualcapacity of memory.This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memoryor claims it for further use.(E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows may reportthe capacity as 1,022MB or less)Before You Start
