Questions about this item

Does the Katana A15 come with the 2 TB PCIe SSD and 16 GB DDR5 already installed, or do I need to add them myself?

What does the 144 Hz 15.6" FHD panel mean for actual gaming frame rates?

The 144 Hz refresh rate lets the display show up to 144 frames per second, so the RTX 4070 can deliver smooth motion in fast-paced titles at 1920 x 1080 resolution.
