Hi!
I have some questions:
Would you consider this laptop reliable for working with audio related tasks? 
I know that many people in the audio-world have had problems in the past due to NVidia graphic cards conflicting with audio drivers, meaning clicking and crackling even at high buffer settings. Has this problem has been solved in newer NVidia cards?
But aside from that, let's say i would purchase the exact same model but with an onboard intel GPU, i think also usb-port quality and other hardware and software factors may contribute to audio dropouts? 
for example if the wifi card is enabled in many systems it can interfere with the usb soundcard. if this is the case, how well do you think this system is optimised for stable audio performance via external usb soundcards?
And a final question:
the only experience with an hp laptop i ever had was aroun 2004-5, when my sister had one. i remember it was always sluggish and laggy, even on just booting or opening the browser or media player. 
i have a suspicion this may be because of a lot of annoying hp-apps/processes in the taskbar.
is this still an issue with HP, and if yes, is it possible to just uninstall/deactivate these processes, or are they needed for optimal performance, battery saving, touchpad recognition, etc?

sorry for the long message!

Have you checked the NVMe lanes used by this laptop? The lane config for the PCIe are 1x4, 2x2, 1x2+2x1 and 4x1. The wifi adapter might have taken the other 2 lanes. I was seaching for updates on my NVMe just because I'm getting a little over just half of the theoretical advertised speeds of my storage. I ran crystaldisk info, and viola.

Transfer Mode : PCIe 3.0 x2 | PCIe 3.0 x4 ( Current | Supported )

Hi,

How good is the ProBook to run Autocad or any other architecture software?

THanks!

Long-lasting laborer. HP's Probook 470 G5 is equipped with a powerful quad-core CPU, a fast NVMe SSD, and a bright IPS display with great viewing angles. It also features a great backlit keyboard and incredible battery life but lacks an optical drive.
