I made the right choice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I haven't purchased an already built computer in the past, I was kind of worried. I always had my son and husband build me a computer, but this time around I decided to quickly purchase an already built one. I have this computer over a month now and have not had any problems with it so far. It goes on quick and shuts down quick. It does everything I need it to without any problems. I don't know much about computers, but when my two computer geeks, my son and husband checked it out, they said I made a good purchase. The price was right, the design is great and most importantly it works fantastic. Not bad for a newbie purchasing her first computer.

Very Nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This computer was on sale when I bought it. It met the specs I was seeking (ITB HDD/8GB RAM). Got home and opened the box (which felt lite) to begin setting it up. And that's when I saw how LIGHT this tower actually was. HP placed laptop equivalent parts inside the tower. This makes for a different, but pleasant experience. Only "issue" was a file associated with McAfee replicated filling the hard drive. Best Buy Geek Squad wanted to charge to fix it after only three weeks (due to misunderstanding on the associates part). One call to HP, and issue was resolved quickly and FREE.

Lower end desk top
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After not replacing my desktop for 10+ years I went for this tower that was on special. Considering where we were this was a step up but not a speed merchant. Works fine after this vista boy figured out windows 10. Workmanship ok but I the front ports are hard to jam cables in to. Wifi is n based so if you are on ac already may want to step up a model or two. Amd processor is speedier than I had but not overly fast in today's market. Would recommend to someone making a big leap looking for low cost upgrade but not someone seeking a speed demon that is up to date tech wise.

Needs improvements (Poor processor performance)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this PC on a whim in Dec. of 2015 because the motherboard of my 6 year old Dell Inspiron failed. I was set on buying a PC with an AMD processor because the AMD "Phenom X3" processor in my Inspiron had performed well. Unfortunately, within the first week of owning this new PC, it crashed at-least 5 times for no apparent reason. (That problem went away after a few months luckily.) It seems that the processor has issues with multitasking at times. While listening to music videos on YouTube, in Google Chrome, the audio from YouTube will become garbled or scratchy. This occurs when the processor is trying to complete other tasks such as scrolling through another webpage or while working in the Trimble “Sketchup” application. This issue is extremely annoying and frustrating. (It is not an internet issue, as we have had the connection checked by our service provider.) (It is also not a problem with the OS/applications I am using, as I regularly perform virus scans and update my software.) Cons: AMD A8 Processor has poor multitasking performance, DVD drive location/position Pros: Very quiet, lightweight, power button location, fast startup. Overall, this PC needs a better processor. Due to the various performance issues with this PC, I will most likely not be buying a PC equipped with an AMD processor again.

Happy that I bought it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This computer does everything that I need it to. I use it for general everyday use and for my business. I'm not a big fan of needing to download apps for things. However, that has to do with the Windows program and there's really no way of getting around that. All in all I think that it's a great computer especially for the price.
