Processor (Central Processing Unit)
.
CPU performance in your computer product may vary from specifications under the following conditions:
1.
use of certain external peripheral products
2.
use of battery power instead of AC power
3.
use of certain multimedia, computer generated graphics or video applications
4.
use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections
5.
use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided design applications
6.
use of several applications or functionalities simultaneously
7.
use of computer in areas with low air pressure (high altitude >1,000 meters or >3,280 feet above sea level)
8.
use of computer at temperatures outside the range of 5°C to 30°C (41°F to 86° F) or >25°C (77°F) at high altitude (all temperature
references are approximate and may vary depending on the specific computer model – please visit the Toshiba website at
www.pcsupport.toshiba.com for details).
CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design configuration.
Under some conditions, your computer product may automatically shut-down. This is a normal protective feature designed to reduce the risk of lost data or
damage to the product when used outside recommended conditions. To avoid risk of lost data, always make back-up copies of data by periodically storing it

Memory (Main System)
. Part of the main system memory may be used by the graphics system for graphics performance and therefore reduce the amount
of main system memory available for other computing activities. The amount of main system memory allocated to support graphics may vary depending on
the graphics system, applications utilized, system memory size and other factors.
5
Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Capacity
.
1 Gigabyte (GB) means 1000 x 1000 x 1000 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. The computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity
using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 1024 x 1024 x 1024 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore may show less storage capacity. Available storage
capacity will also be less if the product includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed
software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
6
Display
. Small bright dots may appear on your screen display when you turn on your PC. Your display contains an extremely large number of thin-film
transistors (TFT) and is manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic characteristic
of the TFT manufacturing technology. Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the computer, the brightness of the screen will deteriorate. This
is also an intrinsic characteristic of the screen technology.
When the computer is operated on battery power, the screen with dim and you may not be able to increase the brightness of the screen while on battery
power.
7
Graphics (Graphics Processing Unit)
.
GPU performance may vary depending on product model, design configuration, applications, power management settings and features utilized. GPU
performance is only optimized when operating in AC power mode and may decrease considerably when operating in battery power mode.
8
Modem Speed
. Due to FCC limitations, speeds of 53 kbps are the maximum permissible transmission rates during download. Actual data transmission
speeds will vary depending on line conditions.
9
Weight
. Weight may vary depending on product configuration, vendor components, manufacturing variability and options selected.
