    Fast processor, lots of memory, 1Tb of SSD storage, USB3 and USB2.o. I like it, but not wild about Win11

    I needed a new desktop sooner than expected. This is a refurbished unit that had the memory and storage space I wanted and the price was reasonable. It doesn't have a DVD drive but I can put one in if I want. Quickly got it set up and working. It is very fast and so far meets all my needs. I'm happy with this purchase after 18 days of use.

    This thing is fast and it was easy to setup. You will need the login credentials for your Microsoft account during setup. It will be much easier to test and/or reset your password on your old machine before tearing it out and putting this one in.

    It was an "open box" item at reduced price. Inside the box everything was there as promised and in pristine condition. Set it up and have used it for about a month without problems. It's fast, has lots of memory for running multiple applications and the 1TB SSD is big enough to hold all the external storage devices I had been using and still have half to spare. The only negative feeling I have is the power supply is on the small size. But still very pleased so far!

    I am so happy with this PC. It performs quickly, accurately and has all the features and more to get the task done. It is a great overall personal use computer and would be great for an at home business. I also love Windows 11. Didn't think I would, but it is so easy to navigate.

    We've owned HP computers since Windows 95 came out. This unit replaces my HP that I've had since 2014. The only reason I have to replace it is because I can't upgrade to Windows 11. I expect this new HP to last at least as long. It has enough USB ports. I miss having a CD/DVD drive. I've owned it for a few weeks and I like it. It is a good machine for our needs...no gaming, no video editing, no picture editing, nothing that would create a huge demand on the processor. If you are looking for a good computer for basic home/office use (MS office stuff), I you can't go wrong. Set up was a breeze, because the Geek Squad did it. Their tech program is great for us.

    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

    "However..."

    An excellent CPU. However, if you have forgotten or never knew how to set you system using basic components such as this CPU let the Geek Squad do it for you. The descriptions both by Best Buy and by HP are too thin they forgrt that the current generations of average users know little or nothing about what a very Basic CPU has and what it does not have for basic components, e.gh: thsi one comes without a camera, without even a single audio speaker (although it does have the requisite internal components in which you can add an external set up, same goes for a Microphone). What this CPU does have is above moderate speed an excellent memory and Windows 11.

    Somewhat Disappointed

    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.

    Great computer for music hobbyist

    I needed to replace a decade old computer that was having more and more trouble doing what I wanted it to do, so I went this one, and I'm very happy. I mainly use my computer to write/record music (just as a hobby, not professional), and this one handles it beautifully compared to my old computer. I thought I might need to update the sound card, but so far, it's working great as is, which really surprised me. I love having an SSD in this, compared to my old computer which had an HDD drive. It makes a tremendous difference. When I get inspired to write new music, I just turn this machine on, and within a matter of seconds, I'm able to start writing/recording. With my old computer, the boot up time was often so long, any inspiration I might have had was gone by the time the computer was ready. I really have no complaints. There's nothing I tried to do with this computer that it couldn't handle well. All that remains to be seen is how long it lasts. Fingers crossed!

    It worked perfectly for what it should work for. I unfortunately needed something with more power so I had to return it, but it was an outstanding computer! Compact and sleek, loved the look and functionality of it!

    It’s fast and was easy to set up. I am still trying to grasp windows 11, which was the main reason I bought the computer due to Microsoft ditching 10 next year. Also wish it had a dvd included, but that’s a dinosaur option. Computer seems solid and the wireless mouse works great.
