The A7 M2 (Actual Specs):
The A7 M2 is the second interation of the Aurora 7 Prototype.
It will feature all the knowledge and potential improvements that became apparent while developing the Aurora 7 prototype.
The A7 M2 is the 7 Screen advanced laptop prototype we will be selling to our customers even before the A7 is finalised.
We are still in the process of confirming final specifications for the A7 M2. There will some good surprises!

(Please note if a newer technology comes out during development we will endeavour to get that tech into the A7 if we can)
| Attribute | Value | Additional info |
| Compute | ||
| Processor | Intel i9 9900KF, LGA 1151 (8 core, 16 thread, 16M Cache) |
No GPU on CPU die should mean it runs cooler and with slightly less power requirements. (Although we may use the 9900k) |
| Ram | 128 GB DDR4 2666MHz | Might also be overclocked to 2933 (TBC) |
| Chipset | Z370 | |
| Graphics and GPU Compute | ||
| GPU | NVIDIA RTX 2070 Series | Chosen because the system needs to be able to fully run on battery. If we can get the RTX 2080 within a reasonable power envelope then we will use that instead. |
| Storage | We mostly work with MLC based SSDs if we can for reasons of MTBF. | |
