Enhances classical music!

Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
For years I believed that I had no use for a subwoofer,
until I came across some articles that explained how
it significantly enhanced classical music. So I purchased
this Sony subwoofer when it was on sale, to try it out.
It turned out to be true - and brought out things I had not
heard before in the music! It made the listening
experience more pleasurable, and I am glad I made the
purchase.

I’ve been really happy with the HP OmniDesk so far. The Intel Core Ultra 7 processor is super fast, and with 16GB of DDR5 memory, everything runs smoothly — even when I have a bunch of apps and tabs open. The 1TB SSD gives me plenty of space and makes startup and loading times really quick.
The Dark Wood design looks awesome in person — it actually feels like part of my furniture instead of a bulky computer tower. It’s quiet, doesn’t overheat, and handles all my daily tasks easily.
If you’re mostly using your desktop for work, streaming, school, or light creative projects, this is a great pick. It’s not built for serious gaming, but for everything else, it’s fast, reliable, and looks great on your desk.

5 out of 5A great home office desktop with a great look
By kaizen61
I think I might have to get a new desk; this case looks too good to be sitting underneath. Seriously, this may be the nicest looking case I’ve ever purchased. But more importantly, it’s a fast, quiet and powerful replacement for my current desktop.
If you’re like me, you may have a PC that, even though it’s powerful enough and capable, somehow can’t be upgraded to Windows 11. For my current PC, that’s a Dell Inspiron that I bought from BB 7 years ago. And while it’s maxed out on memory, has plenty of disk space available and even supports TPM. Microsoft decided the 4.3 Ghz AMD CPU doesn’t cut it. Go figure…
I’ve been looking for a desktop upgrade lately and got an opportunity to check out the HP OmniDesk. The specs certainly checked out, but the look was what sealed the deal. It even looks better in person. Unboxing it I was surprised how light it was, but a large part of that is the lack of any mechanical hard drives. In fact, this is the first PC I’ve ever bought that has no internal HDD mounts. Which isn’t really a problem, given the 1 TB SSD should be plenty for most people and can be expanded to 2 TB. It also has a plethora of USB ports both front and back if you want to expand via external drives.
But by looking at the motherboard, I found a secret. There are SATA ports on the motherboard! Unfortunately, I was unable to test them in time for this review as the power connector requires an adapter I had to order and was delayed coming in from China. If you want to test them yourself, you’ll need a four-pin female floppy power connector (sometimes referred to as a “Berg” connector) to a SATA female connector. While I couldn’t test it, PC inventory apps like Belarc Advisor DO show the SATA subsystem, so there’s a good chance it is active.
The system comes with 16gb of DDR5 memory, which is more than adequate for the average Win 11 user, but I upgrade mine to 32gb as I often have a few windows open and appreciate the extra breathing room. You could upgrade it to 32gb max; I considered this, but I really don’t do much memory intensive work these days, so it seemed overkill.
I was a little surprised at the performance compared to my Dell; even though the CPU is running at a slightly slower speed than the Dell, the performance feels snappier and more responsive. And the PC overall is much quieter. My Dell Inspiron wasn’t a loud unit most of the time, but occasionally the fan would surge when opening an app or a couple of browser windows. Not so with the OmniDesk, for the first couple of days I had to check to make sure it wasn’t hibernated!
As much as I resisted Windows 11, I must admit that I am happy I migrated. Moving over was straightforward and if you have an MS Account, you can even migrate settings and programs over easily. HP’s Windows setup went without event, and I was quickly up and running. Two days later and it’s in place as my main desktop and I feel like I’m good for another 7 years.
I would DEFINITELY recommend the HP OmniDesk as a worthy upgrade or first PC. It can handle anything from browsing and daily emails to a genuine home office workhorse. It would also fit in nicely into a small to medium-sized office environment. I’ve always been happy with my HP purchases and the OmniDesk is no exception. Backed by a great company, I know it will last me a long time.

How big is the power supply in this unit? Can I add a Nvidia 1050 GPU without upgrading the Factory power supply?
The unit has an internal 180 Watt power supply. I believe you would have to replace it with a higher power supply to run such a card. I did a little research on upgrading the power supply for this machine. It is not so easy. I would recommend sticking with the built in graphics. The machine was not designed for higher end gaming.

does the motherboard come with an extra cable it I want to install another SATA compatible Drive or does it have to be purchased separately?
I opened up my computer to look at the cable situation, because I want to add an additional hard drive to the system. I found that the power cable to the DVD drive has a connector on it that will allow you to supply power to such a drive. I also saw that there is an open socket for one data sata cable to connect to this drive, but there is no cable provided to do this. You will have to buy the cable yourself (less than $10). Finally there is a single open bay available, and it will hold a 3.5" drive, and it is just below the dvd drive. So adding one additional SATA drive appears doable, and relatively straight forward.

Lenovo 510A-15ICB Desktop: Upgrade your home computer with this Lenovo IdeaCentre desktop PC. The fast Intel Core i5-8400 processor and Intel UHD 630 graphics card easily handle complex software, and you can store your photos and files on the big 1TB hard drive or make use of the seven-in-one card reader to save on other storage media. Connect this Lenovo IdeaCentre computer wirelessly to other devices using the built-in Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
Why is there no slot for a GPU? In the specifications for this product, in the expansion section, it states there is 1 PCI-E X1 slot, and a PCI-E x16 slot. What is in these slots, if I can't put a GPU in there? Is the description wrong?
I opened up my Lenovo, and see that both of these slots are open and available. However, be aware that the power supply for this machine is modest, and supplies a maximum of only 180 Watts. You need to carefully tally up the power already being used, and see if there is enough for the video card of your choice. Even a low end video card is going to use over 30 W. I think you are best advised to stick with the built in graphics.
