QuestionI intend to purchase the HP Pavilion 590-p0044, which comes with only 1 HDMI slot. I want to run 2 monitors independently. I'm considering buying the NVIDIA Quadro P400. Does anyone any experience in using this card?
Asked 7 years ago by MultiMonitors.
- Answer I would hit google and check the motherboard specs before doing this. It's highly impractical to run a GPU on this machine, as the case won't fit a full length card and the PSU has zero connectors for a GPU.

QuestionDoes this desktop have a sound card?
Asked 6 years ago by Amous.
- Answer If you're a musician/composer, into film scoring-cue editing and/or a music aficionado this system is not for you regarding sound quality. Why? This system has an integrated onboard audio and no SOUND CARD. That said, it is not able to produce the same quality of audio as a dedicated sound card. ... You will still be able to listen to the same music or play the same movie on DVD, game, etc., as someone with a dedicated sound card, but you won't have the same level of sound quality. Get a desktop with an excellent sound card segregated from the main component.
