HP Pavilion Elite m9500f

quad core CPU 8GB's of ram built in graphics card with 256mbs of memory, and a lot of hard drive memory

low CPU speed and the graphics card has one VGA and one DVI

Processor is fast, lots of RAM, decent video card for some decent gaming. I ran Crysis at full settings at 800 x 600 near-flawlessly in DX10 mode

Tons of bloatware. Terrible HP support. Bluescreens all over the place. Mine has had tons of RAM problems, and I had to take out two of the 2gb sticks to get the system to a semi-stable state. Onboard sound can never amount to a decent soundcard. Only...

Fast AMD processor, plenty of RAM, value priced, operates reasonably quiet, no problems during initial boot, easily integrated into home network. Sync'd with old HP f2105 LCD monitor, no problem using KVM switch, connected to network (wireless and...

No DVD copy of software provided... a restore partition on HD is provided instead. Glut of promotional software I removed, HP and others

fast processor, adequate hard drive, built in Wifi

This has to be the chatty Kathy of all computers! it moans, sounds like gears stripping, I've never owned a computer this noisy! Before neuropathy set in, I built computers for myself and my friends and never experienced this

loaded with RAM, fast AMD quad 2.3 Ghz processor can handle multiple tasks that would crash lesser systems

Windows Vista is not compatible with printer drivers for my network printers on Windows XP server. Haven't figured it out yet. Unimportant since printing will rarely be needed in HTPC role. Audio card had no optical out. Digital coax audio cable...

Pros- I got this as the last pc at circuit city for their going out of business. Last 4 days got 30% off I only paid $625 after taxes so I got a super deal! Specs are pretty good for that price

Graphics card is actually pretty darn loud. A bunch of things need to be uninstalled. Only one case fan

Good PC, Tons of RAM, TV Tuner

Geforce 9500gs Graphics Card - The fan on this video card sounds like a chain saw grinding through sheet metal. If you google it you will find dozens of complaints

For the price all of the hard components are impressive. Even the graphic are good if you're not a serious gamer. Vista is an major improvement over HP's proprietary XP version

HP still likes to load a bunch of junk you have to uninstall

powerful newly refined AMD chipset, Ram to spare, expansion capability to spare, and a pretty slick looking design. It came out the box just about 100%. Had to grab some drivers off of the web but the puter did it automatically. This should be a best...

Vista. I know it isn't the manufacturers fault but man, please Microsoft, hurry up and release Win 7! Vista is the worlds largest resource hog. Had me contemplating looking for XP or going to another OS! I am holding out hope that Vista will go the way...

Easy To Use, Great Design, Good Value

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
