Overview 

Feature Description / Likely Value
Processor Intel Core i3 (12th Gen is among the options in the 290 G9 line)
Chipset Intel H670 chipset
Memory (RAM) 8 GB DDR4 (single module, likely in one of two DIMM slots) — can be upgraded later
Storage 512 HDD (7200 rpm, likely SATA) as primary storage
Graphics Integrated graphics (Intel UHD) — no dedicated GPU included by default
Expansion & Slots Two internal bays, PCIe ×16 and PCIe ×1 slots, M.2 slots for SSD / WiFi upgrade
Ports & Connectivity VGA + HDMI for display output, multiple USB ports (front and back), RJ-45 Ethernet, audio in/out, possibly WiFi or optional wireless card
Security / Management Features like TPM, drive lock, cable lock slot, and intrusion detection in some SKUs
Operating System Could ship with Windows 11 (Home / Pro) or FreeDOS depending on configuration

Strengths / Limitations:

  • With only 8 GB RAM, multitasking and modern applications will be limited; upgrading to 8–16 GB is strongly recommended.
  • A 512 HDD provides good storage capacity, but will be slower than SSD. Adding an SSD would improve boot / load times.
  • Integrated graphics can handle everyday tasks (web, office, video), but is not suitable for heavier gaming or graphic design work.
  • The tower case offers room for upgrades (RAM, SSD, discrete GPU) down the line.

Display: 24-inch Screen

The 24-inch monitor is an external display attached to the system. Key expectations for a 24″ screen include:

  • Resolution: Likely Full HD (1920×1080), though some models support higher (e.g. 1080p, possibly up to 2K depending on model)
  • Panel Type: Could be IPS / VA / TN depending on quality (IPS is preferred for wider viewing angles and better color)
  • Ports: HDMI, VGA, DisplayPort (depending on model) — matches what the desktop offers (HDMI + VGA) for connectivity
  • Refresh Rate: Typically 60 Hz for general use; gaming monitors may offer higher
  • Ergonomics: Tilt adjustment, possibly height adjustment or VESA mount support (model-dependent)

Combined Use & Suitability

With the described specification (i3 + 8 GB RAM + 512SSD + integrated graphics + 24″ display), this setup is most suited for:

  • General office / productivity tasks (Word, Excel, web browsing, email)
  • Light media consumption (videos, streaming)
  • Basic programming, light IDEs, or entry-level development
  • Everyday home / school use

It may struggle with:

  • Heavy multitasking (many browser tabs, large spreadsheets, virtual machines)
  • Graphic-intensive applications (3D rendering, modern games)
  • Video editing or work with large media files (unless upgraded)
