HP Pavilion Elite HPE-590uk

Really quiet. Brilliant spec. Wireless. Really powerful. Lightscribe CD/DVD. Excellent build quality . HP is a name I know I can trust.

Wireless keyboard & Mouse ( I only wanted the Processor so have just thrown them away (battery life was very poor)). As is usual nowadays, it came full of Bloatware (Crapware) and took ages to remove.

Very Fast Machine, With good gaming graphics. The Microsoft ratings for this machine are (Out of 7.9) Processor:7.6 Memory(Ram):7.6 Graphics:5.7 Gaming Graphics:6.5 Primary HDD: 5.9 The graphics score seams a bit low to me as the machine plays Witcher...

The machine is not bundled with a Monitor, unless you go for the smaller 1GB GForce Card

Operating system was OK in the begining but after updates were applied a condisderable loss of speed occurred. Not happy!

Impressed with overall design, functionality and ease of use. A professionally put-together piece of kit, as you'd expect from HP.

Internal TV tuner card cable linkage to motherboard was disconnected.

Very easy to set up and start using

The HP Pavilion HPE-590uk Desktop PC is a extremely good PC, very fast loading ,plenty of memory and very impressive machine. It replaced my other Pavilion 1280 Media PC which I had been very happy with.

I preferred the on/off switch on the front of the PC instead of on the top as the PC is kept in a cupboard in my computer desk and it is more difficult to switch on as there is only 22mm clearance at the top in the cupboard. The other thing I miss is...

Nice compact unit and very quite lots of features as in blue tooth and USB ports I have had no problem with this machine

I am very pleased with this computer. It does everything well.
