Because it is based on an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS Octo Core Hawk Point processor in which the Radeon 780M graphics module is located, supported by 16 GB of RAM.

Creative people will be particularly delighted that their processing is carried out more quickly with this duo than with a classic Quad/Hexa Core. We clearly feel the difference in areas that are intensive in CPU and RAM resources and take advantage of multi-core, such as video editing or photo editing.

The Radeon 780M is solely responsible for graphics work. We can therefore view photos and videos.
Even play light to modest games with concessions such as a reduction in screen definition. Because playing in 2.8K requires more graphics resources and calculations than playing in Full HD, which results in a lower number of fps.
