Easy question, not so easy when it comes to an answer, especially sight-unseen. The specs seem OK. Being a 2019 computer, is it running Mojave or Catalina? Is the HD OK? So many variables and questions. The quickest (and cheapest!) answers might be found with a booking at the Genius Bar, seeing it’s a new machine.
