I'm not one much for games. I'm assuming it would run descent ones. I did put a cheap 4k video card in it. This is my media center. It does work great for that wasn't a fan of the mouse and keyboard. I just happen to like Logitech. I did try the mouse and keyboard. They did work perfectly fine.
The only thing I dislike is if you need to go into the case you don't have much hand room at all

This tower replaced an older pc that has an hdd hard drive so this one is much faster!
It has great memory and the speed is awesome. My mom uses this for work where she uses Quickbooks for payroll purposes. We back up all files but she likes saving them directly on the pc as well so this is very convenient.
We don't use it for gaming so can't comment on that. But if you need a good, affordable computer for small business, work, school, or general web use, this is a great choice.
It does not come with a disc drive. We needed one so bought one for $25 and it connected seamlessly, plug and play.

So far so good. Had a bad experience with a previous version of this harddrive but giving it a second chance. Very easy to set up and so far absolutely no issues! I think good price.

I purchased this HP Desktop computer to replace a Dell my household has been using since the early 2000's. I am not a super technical person, and this was extremely easy for me to get set up and working. There are plenty of ports to plug in my printers, scanner, etc, and it looks very sleek sitting on my desk. It's amazingly fast, and I wish I would have purchased one sooner.

For what I need I give it 5 stars. Replaced an old Sluggish 7 year old Dell Inspiron. Husband kept telling me I needed a SSD in my PC and I had researched in the past and it was too expesnive. Then I saw this deal on sale for $659 and asked my husband if it was a good deal and he said yes and looked up all the specs and bought us each one. He had an old 7 or 8 year old pc also.
So far it's fast and for just doing email web surfing and watching videos it's great! I already had a nice 27 inch HP monitor that I love. So now I am good to go! We don't game so this is all we need. I didn't care about no CD drive hubby kind of wanted one. But so far so good but it's only been like 2 or 3 weeks.
We had windows 10 so 11 wasn't too much different but I like it. I like the start menu and having shortcuts there and not covering up the whole desktop.

HP desktop computer was only set up a week ago. To date, we are very pleased with the system. I purchased the HP desktop to replace a previous HP desktop that was 5-6 years old and running very slow. This system is very quick and responsive. It is windows 11, and though I was concerned that we would have trouble using it, so far, we have had few issues. I had the Geek Squad set it up, and the technician was excellent.

I have bought this same desktop twice, one to have in my office and other upstairs in my bedroom, I work and do a lot online and these are probably the best desktops I've had in the 30 years or so I've had a computer. Works fast, reliable, *knock on wood* no issues with either the past couple years I've had them.

The computer overall is very good. It is fast and robust with ample RAM, 1TB SSD-Me hard drive, and superior processor. I had to add an external DVD drive because there is not one and no good place to mount one internally. It came with windows 11 already installed so it took some effort to make it work with my windows 10 printer. The cordless mouse and keyboard are OK BUT they require batteries that must be changed periodically. I went back to my original corded ones without any problem. Windows 11 comes with Onedrive installed by default. Be sure you know what you are getting into before you add any personal data to the computer. It is difficult to get it off of the cloud.

I purchased this back in 2022 because I had a Windows 10 HP computer that would not accept Windows 11. I kept it under the desk, unopened until they stopped supporting Windows 10 (which is now in October). When I purchased it, I asked the sales person if it had a disc drive and they said that it did - but, it does not. I am going to see if they can install one. As far as the performance, I am not completely happy, because it does not operate as fast as the old computer did when I first purchased it - but perhaps there is a difference, because when I purchased the old computer, I could not transfer files to it, because the old XP computer that I had died. Whereas, with this computer, I was able to transfer the files from the previous computer and I do not know if that would slow it down. But, it just don't operate better, other than, I do like how that with the SSD, it is quiet. As far as Windows 11, I do not like it. It seems that Microsoft has been giving us less programs. I loved the layout and some of the programs that came with XP - although, it did have some problems, but it would have been nice if they would have just improved on that operating system and just keep supporting it. Things just seem to degrade.

I've had this desktop for months now, but I was waiting for my previous desktop to cry for mercy before I pulled this out. I have my standard 25-30 webpages up and it hasn't skipped a beat. Processing speed is great, very little lag time which is perfect. Lots of space on the drive, and I'm not afraid to fill it! Depending on what you are looking for, this should be a contender.

So far so good. I needed a new HP for the sole reason that Microsoft was going to stop supporting Windows 8.1 which I loved. I had no choice but to upgrade. I loved my last HP and had no issues with it for 10 and a half year's so I expect the same here. This machine has more memory so everything runs/opens smoothly with no hesitation. I knew tis didn't come with a CD/DVD which was annoying so I had to get a external one for $30. Not bad but annoying. There appears to be a slot for a drive in the front so maybe a more expensive model comes with it? Check it out first.

My HP has 16GB which makes it more efficient than my older model. My only surprise is that it didn't come with a CD drive (my fault - it's been 8+ years since I purchased a PC). It is also smaller in size than my old model which is a good thing. I like being with the HP family - a symbol of quality.
