Questions about this item

How long will the Core i7-2640M sustain its 3.50 GHz turbo frequency before thermal limits reduce the clock speed?

The processor is rated for a maximum turbo frequency of 3.50 GHz. Actual sustained speeds depend on the workload and the cooling capacity of the X220 chassis under continuous load.

What noise and heat levels should I expect from the fan and chassis when the laptop runs a full-day workload?

The X220 uses an Active Protection System and a redesigned hinge for durability. Fan noise and surface temperature will vary with the intensity of the task and the 8GB DDR3 memory load.

Which power adapter connector does this unit require, and is one included in the box?

The laptop charges through a dedicated docking connector on the bottom. It also accepts power via the standard round tip used across ThinkPad T, L and W series docks.
