The i53 also supports up to 4 GB of DDR3 RAM – it may not be enough for most PC enthusiasts but it’s more than enough for everyday use. A 500 GB hard drive provides storage and the graphics is based on the Intel HD 4000 graphics chip, which is fast enough for a large number of (older) games and perfect for 2D usage.
