My old tower tanked. I had a great monitor already. So i went hunting for just a tower. I liked the items in it. The processor is dadt, the memory great, and the hard drive has a perfect amount of memory. I'll likely not fill it up LOL! Plus, it was on sale. You just can't beat an HP.

This computer was easy to set up and is very fast and reliable. I was looking for a computer tower that wasn't too pricey and this one is great for the price.

I do not know computers, all I do is google search, e-mail and YouTube. So I bought the cheapest available.
And it turned out I was right I don't need all the crap piled on that retailers try to sell. the prices are to high but fortunately some stuff is still put on sale to make way for more pricey stuff to come. I would buy this $350 tower again. it's really all i need.

I am very impressed with the early returns on my purchase. The speed is good and as a work at home employee, it is much faster than its predecessor. I could log on and go make a pot of coffee before it booted up, Now, I power up and it boots right up

You need something pretty quick for office tasks and surfing. This is it! Plenty fast for productivity. Just don't expect to be able to add a graphics card down the line, this is not that kind of pc. It has its purpose and serves it will.

This desktop computer was exactly what I was looking for in terms of my home office setup. I wanted something that was basic and minimal as I am only using it for surfing the web and remote connecting into my work server. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a computer for a similar use.

Other than the "junk" that was preloaded on the computer, it's much faster (both with basic operations and internet access) than my old one and meets or exceeds all of my expectations.

A Very Good Budget Buy

I selected this tower bundle for a family friend when his 8 year old Dell PC motherboard died from thunderstorm damage. This system frequently goes on sale with a $100 discount! The Intel Core i3 CPU, 256GB NVMe SSD, and 8GB DDR4 RAM make for a speedy system for AVERAGE Internet, Email, and Office tasks. It is NOT a gaming system and upgrades will be limited by the power supply as is typical for budget systems. If you need a real DVD/CD drive it is FAR easier to purchase an external USB version than to add internally since the faceplate includes just a fake DVD cover. Keyboard and mouse are included, so you only need a display with speakers. HP exceeded some expectations by including extra SATA and power cables attached to the motherboard for future storage upgrades. The included Windows 11 Home helps since Windows 10 security updates will cease in October 2025. I find this a good starter system compared to others similarly priced.

Good basic PC for the price. Goal was shopping, email, etc. Meets all the needs. I have a much higher end machine for the games, etc. I wouldn’t use this one for that purpose.

i recently needed to my old hp tower. it was old and was running windows 10. it was for my personal use . light web browsing and would print out my wife's work schedule and work related invoices. i don't game so i didn't need anything super fancy . i found hp intel core i3 on the best buy web site. it was exactly what i needed for my use and it was a great price. i had it delivered to my home and it was so to set up. the start up and speed are a welcome relief from my old unit. plus i am on windows 11 now as well. in closing i will if you need something simple to replace an old unit then i recommend this hp product.

Im mixed, its a good price for a so so machine. HP has always been a company that uses proprietary hardware, and this is no exception. I have had 2 failures, (probably have about 20 of these) so a 10% failure rate is high, but the pruce is good.
