1. Remove the bottom plate

If we have to be honest, this is one of the easiest notebooks to get inside. You just need to undo 5 Phillips-head screws and pry the bottom panel with a plastic tool, starting from the back.


2. Battery

In terms of battery, HP has equipped the notebook with a 56Wh unit.


3. Memory and storage

To access the RAM, you need to remove a metal bracket. Thankfully, HP has put a pull tab, which makes it a lot easier to take the bracket away. Beneath it, you’ll find two RAM SODIMM slots, which support up to 64GB of DDR4 memory in total. Storage-wise, there is only one M.2 PCIe x4 slot.


4. Cooling system

Its cooling solution includes two heat pipes, cooling both the CPU and the GPU. Then, the heat is dissipated by a heat spreader and a reasonably large fan.
