Intel UHD Graphics drives one DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.1 output for dual-display setups. Wireless networking uses a MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 MT7920 adapter with MU-MIMO and Bluetooth 5.4, while a gigabit Ethernet port handles wired links. Front and rear ports provide USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C, USB 3.2 Type-A, USB 2.0 and a headset jack without needing extra adapters.

The tower chassis measures 324.3 mm high, 154 mm wide and 293 mm deep, weighing 5.45 kg, giving the cooling system room to maintain performance during extended business or education workloads.
