Compact little powerhouse. Aesthetically pleasing. Comes equipped with everything you need, and virtually nothing you don’t. Well-balanced and refined. Can’t say enough about the value for performance ratio. HP nailed it with this one. Would highly recommend without hesitation.
I am really happy with the product but as other reviewers mentioned, the desktop gets really really hot while playing games (COD MW, OW2, Elden ring). I could probably safely cook an egg on the desktop surface. Not sure why the air flow is so horrible. I assume its because it only has (1) tiny ventilation on the left side of the panel.
Computer is good. It’s turning hot when you playing high quality games. Be careful. When you turning optimization for game, it’s starting to be loud, but not really loud. It’s ok. I recommend it to gamers with medium quality games.
I was disappointed that it was a downgrade from my Phoenix. The PC itself is nice. Works well. Win11 is smooth. Gratefully I had my "bells and whistles", external dvd rom, external Hard drive enclosures, because there is none. I bought this strictly for the processor and graphics and that is what I got. For the gamer I'm sure it's worth the buy.
I have not had any problems so far. It has been able to run my games well. The most intense game I have played so far is "Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order", and while the computer does get warm, I have not had any performance drops or lag. The fan idle is a little louder than I would like, but it does not get significantly louder during intense usage. It occasionally makes a soft knocking sound (kind of like a pebble getting flung against a piece of metal). And most importantly, the V on the front looks cool when it lights up.
Good gaming computer in a neat package. After some research for other brands with the same components (CPU, GPU, RAM etc.) this computer was the cheapest option I could find. The only concern is the heat as it can get quite hot and may benefit from a better cooling solution, the only issue is that the case is small and not sure if a larger air cooler of liquid cooler will fit? but I suspect the heat will be the same with whatever system you buy?
