Okay, so a couple of photos -
First - the box.
Then let's see what the device looks like out of the box:
What type of PSU is ir? Delta DPS-65VB. 12v, 5.5 A, 5.5x2.5 tip, center positive lead.
Okay, so the first question is...how can we open it up? Pretty easy. Grab a long Philips J1 screwdriver and sink it into 2 screwholes on the bottom of the front side. The Torx T8 is used to hide an internal USB port within - Rather optional.
(The blue screwdriver points to the location that you need to unscrew and then slowly but steadily shuck it open. It should look like so:
The entire top half under the plastic grille is a large metallic heat sink.
To open it up, 6 Philips J1 screws, and then lift upwards.
You should see the entire top as a large heat sink with contact patches for both the CPU (Core i3-7100U) and the cheap Apacer SSD. In this view front side is at the top.
Note that the SODIMM slot is closer to the front of the chassis.
Here's a size comparison with the HPt640...
