Did I get the laptop I ordered or was I ripped off?

Picture 1 shows the internals that are actually installed in the laptop.

Picture 2 the enclosed slip.

Figure 3 shows the specs listed on Amazon.

Many thanks for your help!

This is the laptop you ordered

Can't call cheating, unfortunately. (Probably due to the cooling) the processor is down-clocked (from 2.16Ghz to 1.1Ghz), so it uses only a fraction of its power. However, it is the promised processor, perfectly functional. So legally.

Many Thanks!

Many Thanks!

You make me really finished here.

Before even more people write that the CPU clock does not fit. Here is the specification:

https://ark.intel.com/...-2-60-GHz-

Processor Base Frequency 1.10 GHz
Burst Frequency 2.60 GHz

Sure, in advertising you give the highest bar. That's not how it's really unfair. If performance is required, the CPU will run at the highest possible performance. Depending on the cooling may need to be clocked down, but 2.6GHz will not be overly hot.

I read your comment that 1.1Ghz is the official base clock. That's why I said it's legal. Only processors (especially so old), if you only use the base clock, severely limited in their performance. Normally, the cooling should ensure a permanent boost cycle.

Many Thanks!

Uh, it does not work that way. The burst clock is used when the power is also called. Theoretically, you want to keep the clock as low as possible, so that power / energy is saved. Only if the performance is really necessary, the CPU should clock up.

That's what all (?) Modern consumer CPUs do. Which CPU is constantly running at maximum?

I thought I remembered that the n4000 was from a generation that did not support adaptive clock. It may well be that I'm wrong. In that case you are right.
