Looking at buying a laptop, I've stuck with Dell, and stumbled upon refurbished items on the bestbuy.ca site https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/dell-xps-13-7390-2-in-1-13-fhd-touchscreen-laptop-intel-core-i7-1065g7-16gb-ram-512gb-ssd-certified-open-box/14346109 should I be worried about the detailed specs not matching the specs from dell? should I maybe not be so greedy and just buy what I can afford directly from dell?

I dusted off my old Dell Inspiron 1420 from 2008 and have decided to replace some of the worn out shell with new parts, and install cloudready chromeOS. So an Intel core2 Duo with 4 gigs of ddr2 ram currently has a 500 gig 7200 rpm hard drive considering replacing it with a SSD but don't want to overspend as I don't want to spend too much into a 12 year old laptop
