Best Buy is selling an Asus Chromebook with a 14-inch FHD screen, 8 GB of RAM, 128 GB of storage, and an AMD Ryzen 3 7320C APU for US$279. This is a savings of $220, or roughly 44% off the Chromebook’s retail price.

Need an affordable buy capable laptop for school, work, or web projects? You may want to check out Asus’ 14-inch Chromebook with an AMD Ryzen 3 7320C, on sale at Best Buy for 44% off its retail price. 

This Asus Chromebook has a 14-inch 1920×1080 touchscreen and can be folded backward for use as a tablet. It’s powered by AMD’s Ryzen 3 7320C APU, which has four Zen 2 cores clocked at 2.4 GHz with a 4.1 GHz single-core boost. All four cores are hyperthreaded for eight total threads.

Graphics are handled by an integrated AMD Radeon 610M, which has two RDNA 2 CUs and 128 shaders. The GPU is clocked at 1.9 GHz. Considering Chrome OS’s lightweight demands, the laptop should fly through tasks with ease.

The Chromebook also packs 8 GB of RAM and a 128 GB SSD, which are quite high specs for a Chromebook. It should be noted that the Chromebook has an SSD for storage instead of the far more common (and significantly slower) eMMC. (The Best Buy page doesn’t mention whether the SSD operates at SATA or PCIe speeds.)

Ports include two USB-C 3.1 Gen 1 ports (both with PD and DisplayPort support), a single HDMI port, one USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 ports, a headphone jack, and a microSD card slot.

I’ve been a computer geek my entire life. After graduating college with a degree in Mathematics, I worked in finance and banking a few years before taking a job as a database administrator. I started working with Notebookcheck in October of 2016 and have enjoyed writing news and reviews. I’ve also written for other outlets including UltrabookReview and GeeksWorldWide, focusing on consumer guidance and video gaming. My areas of interest include the business side of technology, retro gaming, Linux, and innovative gadgets. When I’m not writing on electronics or tinkering with a device, I’m either outside with my family, enjoying a decade-old video game, or playing drums or piano.
