Third generation Intel Core i3 processor, 4 GB of RAM and 500 GB hard disk. The processor has a max TDP of 35 watts only, which makes it possible to run this PC using a 19 Volt adapter.

Performance
The M72e logged 2642 points in PCMark 7, which shows that it packs good enough power for basic everyday applications. It took a minute to encode a 1 minute MPEG video to H.264 and about the same time to compress an assortment of files amounting to 100 MB to 7.zip format using the Ultra Profile. The sequential read and write speed logged by CrystalDiskMark was 82 MB/s – upgrading to an SSD will bump this speed to thrice as much! 3DMark Vantage logged 8023 points in Entry mode. This clearly suggests this PC is not at all meant for gaming. However, the on-chip graphics processor is well-suited for accelerating media playback and 3D graphics used by certain applications.
