HP - Desktop - AMD Ryzen 3 - 8GB Memory - 256 SSD - Jet Black

Bought this for my wife as she is technically challenged. The Last time she had a PC it was always SLOW. She is also impatient. She keeps me jumping around because her Ipad does this and that. I gave up and for her BD I bought her the AMD Ryzen desktop with an SSD, WOW! This thing just screams it is so fast. (I wish it was mine) Now I have to break her away from the Ipad because she is still technically challenged and needs to relearn how to use a PC. Once she does that I'll have some peace. Bottom line, it is a great PC and should last a long time.

Good computer. Enough graphical power to run doom 2016 and gta 5 at 1080p pretty easily, and has enough processing power to do my office work. Has two monitor ports, although one of them has to support vga or you need an adapter. I immediately upgraded the ram and that was easy. I like that it has so many USB ports on the front, that’s actually somewhat hard to find. One issue from hp in general is that it has a proprietary power supply. I haven’t looked specifically into this model, but you’ll probably need an adaptor to add a video card or anything. Also this website doesn’t list any expansion slots *for* a video card, but when I looked up the model number for the motherboard it does seem to have at least 1 pci express 3 slot, which means you can fit some of them. I do not have enough know how to tell just by looking at the thing. That being said, I figured I would need to replace this cheap computer after saving up more money for a much more powerful pc, but it worked well enough (as someone who isn’t crazy about running everything in 4K at 180 frames a second) that I don’t feel like I need to. I have had issues with some crashing. I can’t say for certain this is my model as I bought it used. I definitely had to reinstall steam because of how much it was hanging. Hasn’t been bad since but I definitely got a few blue screens of death, especially in the first week or so. Also the hard drive is very small, but an external hard drive is like 50 bucks so that’s not a huge problem even if you don’t want to open everything

This looks as if it has a CD- ROM drive. It does not have a CD-ROM drive. That's not extremely important to me so I did not return it, but the amount of time I invested to go through command and make sure I didn't overlook it because it appears to have a door slot is why I give it 4 stars. It definitely did not mention the CD-ROM drive in any instruction manual or online. Read product descriptions carefully.

Looking to upgrade my web browsing computer I purchased this unit and was greatly impressed by the speed the SSD gave over my old computer with its HDD. A much faster and smoother internet experience it provides me. The main drawback to me is that this does not come with a DVD/Bluray drive installed nor does it have an internal bay to install one. You have to have an external disk drive to watch dvd or bluray movies or to install software from disks on this computer. Overall though I would recommend this computer since the increased performance of the SSD is worth the trouble of buying an external disk drive.

This is a great little computer for basic use like web browsing, office, muisc and stuff. Didn't come with alot of junk installed on it which is great. Boots up in 7 seconds. Love the wireless and buletooth that it comes with. Just a all around great product.

The Geek folks did a good job of transferring files from my old computer to the new one. The overall service while making the purchase was excellent. However I found that using the internet to communicate with Geek service was frustrating. Whoever runs that operation may know digital technology but they are short of communication with people skills.

This HP desktop with AMD Ryzen 3, 8GB RAM, and 256 GB SSD is plenty powerful for most average users like myself who mostly do web browsing, reading email, light word processing (letters, etc.), and Zoom-type meetings. Setup was easy, speed and bootup fast, and enough storage unless you store LOTS of movies and/or music (and that's what the Cloud and external storage devices are for).

Cheap but works as a daily driver for email, web surfing, etc. Isn't going to be a high end gaming machine - but that is o.k., it is significantly faster than my 4 year old gaming laptop... so, that works for me!
