Using this with an Intel 14700k, an RTX 4090, a few m.2 drives (It has room for 5), 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and a ton of external drives. Runs perfectly. I recommend you get the drivers for the board onto a USB drive before you try to install Windows with it. This will save you a ton of headache.

Keep your computer running smoothly by using this CORSAIR thermal paste on its components. It has an ultralow thermal impedance that enables efficient heat transfer from the hardware to the cooling system to prevent overheating, and the low-viscosity material is simple to apply. This CORSAIR thermal paste lasts for years without degrading.

I'm using this on an emulation build. It works just fine for that purpose, and is a very reasonable price. Well worth it. Note that I'm using this with Windows 11 with FAT32 formatting. It's formatted for Mac out of the box, but it has no problem being formatted in other methods.

My bank did not have any instructions in my box. Do you have a List of the different symbols that come on the display screen?

All that the screen shows is how much charge is left in it. 0%-100%. I'm not aware of any other symbols that it displays.

Find a reliable storage solution for large files with this WD easystore external desktop hard drive. The USB 3.0 interface and backward-compatibility with USB 2.0 offer broad connectivity, while the automatic backup solution reduces the risk of data loss. This WD easystore external desktop hard drive features a 12TB capacity to provide ample space for videos and photos.
 

Is there Recovery on this if it gets lost?!

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking here, but I'll assume you're asking if this has recovery software on it that helps with lost data. There is software on it, but its intention is to automatically copy data that might be on your main computer drive or any other drive you have connected to your computer. You basically pick the folders that you want to be backed up and it will automatically copy those folders and their contents onto this drive. If something goes wrong with this drive, causing you to lose the data on it, there isn't anything here that will recover that data.

Does this come with Word, Excel and PowerPoint? Or does this need to be purchased separately? When I add it to the cart it asks if I want to purchase these. I thought these were automatically included. My last Dell computer had them.

It doesn't come automatically with them. I think that the Office icon on the taskbar enables a 1-month trial, then you'll need to purchase it. They're trying to get you to sign up for Office 365. Office 365 is a subscription, so you'll need to re-up the subscription once a year. The full version of Office is not called Office 365. I think the latest is Office 2019. You only have to buy it once.

Would I be able to use Microsoft as well as with Google Suite?

Yes, but you'll probably need to switch Windows out of "S" mode. It's pretty easy to do, but I recommend that it's the first thing you do after the initial setup. DO NOT connect it to a managed network before you do this or it might get a lot more difficult. Home networks are fine, but no school networks or business networks until it's out of "S" mode, or else you'll have to go through some pain to switch it.

Can this computer handle online college? Can it handle Microsoft office? Thank you so much for your help!

This computer should have no problem with online college or MS Office. It's quite fast with the processor and SSD. 256GB is enough for most purposes, but it can run out of space if the user puts a lot of games or High-Def movies on it. 8GB of RAM is fine for most purposes, but editing large files like very hi-res photos might slow down a bit. 99.9% of users won't have that problem though. It should run some games, but it's not specifically a gaming laptop. Should be fine for light gaming, but you won't be able to run the latest games smoothly with the graphics options cranked up.

Is it compatible with a gamer laptop Dell G7 7700?

From a technology standpoint, yes. It's much thicker than a standard M.2 drive. Those RGB lights make it pretty thick. I put it into a desktop PC, but I'm not sure it would fit into any laptop. I don't think there's a way to remove the RGB lights without actually breaking it.
