Questions about this item

Will the i5-8350U 1.70 GHz quad-core throttle when I run heavy workloads all day?

The Intel Core i5-8350U has a 1.70 GHz base clock and four cores; sustained heavy loads will push it to its thermal limits and the processor will throttle to stay within its power envelope.

How loud and hot does the ThinkPad T480 get when it runs flat-out for hours?

Under continuous load the cooling fan spins up audibly and the chassis near the rear vent becomes noticeably warm, though surface temperatures stay within the design limits for the i5-8350U platform.

The listing says 16 GB DDR4 2400 MHz — is the memory soldered or can I add a second stick later?

This unit ships with 16 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz memory installed; the T480 has one soldered module and one SO-DIMM slot, so an additional stick can be fitted if the current configuration uses only the slot.
