User Reviews and Q&A on the HP 15-fc0093dx

Below you can read and submit user reviews, questions, and answers about the HP 15-fc0093dx. Thank you for your contribution.

  1. Question

    John

    Is there a cd drive that works best with this computer and Windows 11?

    • JBB

      It has windows 11 but no cd drive you would have to buy a external cd/dvd drive or even bluray they are pretty cheap on like ebay, amazon.

    • Dan

      Any external USB CD / DVD drive should work normally.

  2. Question

    Sue Connolly

    what is a compatible docking station for powering the laptop as well as connecting monitors, etc.

  3. Question

    Sean

    How many memory slots we can add ? possible for 32Gb ? Thanks a lot!

  4. Question

    De Layla

    can this run a roblox full/max graphics? or any valorant game?

  5. Question

    Jeff Moore

    Will the HP fc00093dx work well with CAD software

    • Dan

      I don’t know what CAD program you use, but for example minimum specs for the latest AutoCAD 2024 include “Display Card: 2 GB GPU (8 GB recommended) with 29 GB/s bandwidth (106 GB/s recommended) and DirectX 11 compliant (DirectX 12 recommended)”. The HP fc00093dx doesn’t have a dedicated video card with its own video memory, so I assume you can’t use it for AutoCAD 2024. Or maybe it is possible to run it with some limitations and possibly run older versions of the program. Anyway, for CAD-type software I would get a gaming laptop, since they all have dedicated video cards. Even the lower-end laptops with the GeForce 3050 gaming GPU meets the AutoCAD 24 requirements and possibly other equivalent programs.

    • Sunil

      Battery cells haven’t mentioned

  6. Question

    Question

    IPS or TN?

    • Dan

      The official specs state this:

      Display: 15.6-inch diagonal, FHD (1920 x 1080), micro-edge, anti-glare

      So, no word on IPS. It’s probably TN then.
