Great tower with lots of memory and RAM. Very quiet. Instant "ON" is delightful. Love the HDMI capability as well as VGA option. Only wish you had an "On/Off" switch adjacent to the power plug for additional safety if disconnecting the tower power plug. 5

I have had this desktop for 2 months. I wish that I would have replaced my old one sooner. The desktop is so much faster is every aspect. I upgraded to an HP monitor and the colors are so bright. 5

I was able to customize my unit to fit my needs and it's just perfect. Plenty of storage and super fast response rate. Very pleased with my purchase! 5

slhall	27/05/2024
I always did like HP over all the others. This is not my first one. They all ran grate and I still have them in working order. This one is the faster of them all. Plays all the games I play on max settings and still keep the fps maxed out on all the games. Boots up in a few seconds, load games fast and I have them on the 1 TB HDD. The OS is on the SSD, But the computer has no lag at all, and is faster then I thought it would be while gaming, Everything on this computer is really fast, I will keep buying HP computers for a long time, So are they are the best out of all the computers I had in my life time so far, 5
