great product for the business professional ”

 

This is the computer I use at work. It has the memory I need to handle everything I want - countless files, microsoft software, and of course the browsing capability I need (though much of that is due, of course, to my internet provider).

Solid Workstation

 

I've had no problems with noise. If anything I can barely hear the machine. Bought the mini-tower with the high efficiency power supply.

Excellent workstation, plenty of RAM capacity, can mirror drives with RAID, and overall many features

Watch out for the display port depending on the video card you get. Looks very close to HDMI, but it's not. Confusing for the novice

Bit on the noisey side with loud fans

Very powerful, supports 8GB ram

Build quality seems lacking from masking tape inside to sharp corners on the case. The new base mouse weighs in at a very light 4 oz's to light for an accurate mouse
