What's great about it: powerfull processor
What's not so great: wimpy 250 watt psu
I bought this machine for the I5. I plan to use it as a gaming rig and couldnt build a better machine for less. The pc came like new and seems to work perfectly. I will be installing a gtx 550 so the stock 250 watt psu will definately have to go. The really wimpy psu is the only knock against this machine I would recommend it to anyone.

When you buy this PC you're getting the Core i5 obviously, I had to do some research because Best Buy doesn't tell you what processor you're actually getting. You're getting the Intel Core i5-2405S Processor. It has 4 cores and 4 threads. Hyper-threading is NOT available. This is a good computer for gaming and other needs but isn't exceptional for virtualization. If you intend to use a PC for virtualization purposes I recommend the Xeon or Core i7 processor line.

What's great about it: The Core I5 processor and 6G memory
What's not so great: lack of USB ports, Windows7 conflicts with older programs
I work a home based business and my old HP got a power surge that went through the APC. I read alot of reviews and seen this model and was originally not sure about buying a refurbished model. I seen it had the same warrenty and thought I would give it a try.
I am pleasantly surprised. I thought my old computer was fast, however the Core I5 processor offers no lag time on large files. No wait when you turn the computer on either. Love the quick set up and the 6g memory since I work with major & multiple files at the same time. I've always had HP and my last one ran great and lasted 6 yrs before the power surge. That's why I really wanted to stay with HP.
The only issue I'm having is that alot of my programs are having problems with the Windows7 vs XP. I have Norton for business and it wouldn't work, so I had to revert back to regular Norton.
It wouldn't let me install my HP 7680 printer from the disk the regular (old) way. As I was getting frustrated, I noticed that it already had the drivers installed and I didn't need to use the disk. Some of my other items where I normally install by disk then plug in, worked the same way.
Some of the older hardware doesn't work with it either. I had a favorite keyboard and mouse and this item no longer includes the older port types. One thing that I would like to have seen different is that since most hardware now uses USB ports, you need more available. Between the keyboard, mouse, external drives, printer, etc - there isn't enough ports and they are on the back of the machine with only two on front.
Granted, I just got this computer. Hopefully, I get no surprises in the near future and it has the same HP reliability I'm use to.
This product is... Perfect for Business, Easy to set up and is lightning fast
