Business-ready 14.1" notebook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T430s is a 14.1-inch laptop built around a dual-core Intel Core i5-3320M processor running at 2.60 GHz. It ships with 4 GB of DDR3 memory and a 1 TB hard drive, offering a familiar Windows 10 Pro environment for office tasks, web browsing and legacy applications. The durable black chassis includes a DVD±RW drive and integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000.

DVD drive and Trusted Platform Module

The bundled DVD±RW drive lets you read and write optical media without an external peripheral, useful for older software installers or archival discs. A hardware Trusted Platform Module chip is integrated on the motherboard, providing platform-level encryption key storage for BitLocker and enterprise security policies. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit comes pre-installed with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Dual-core i5-3320M at 2.60 GHz

The processor is a third-generation dual-core Core i5 with a base clock of 2.60 GHz and Hyper-Threading, defining the performance ceiling for everyday workloads. It is not suited for buyers who need more cores for heavy multitasking or modern content creation, nor for those who require a dedicated graphics processor for 3D rendering or gaming.

Questions about this item

Can the 4 GB DDR3 memory be upgraded later?

The system supports up to 16 GB of DDR3, so the existing 4 GB can be replaced with higher-capacity modules.

What limits sustained performance first, the dual-core i5-3320M or the integrated HD Graphics 4000?

The dual-core i5-3320M at 2.60 GHz will reach its thermal and thread limits before the HD Graphics 4000 becomes the bottleneck.

How loud and hot does the T430s get when running all day on the 1366 x 768 LED display?

Under continuous load the dual-core CPU and integrated graphics raise chassis temperature and fan speed, but the 14.1-inch LED panel itself adds minimal heat.
